Abstract

In order to pursue high performance of Chinese information access on the Internet, this paper presents an attractive approach with a successful integration of efficient speech recognition and information retrieval techniques. A working system based on the proposed approach for speech retrieval of real-time Chinese netnews services has been implemented and tested. Very exciting performance has been achieved
