Machine Learning and Spoken language Understanding

• Automatic Speech Recognition : language modeling, confidence measures

• Spoken Language Understanding : Finite State Transducers

• Machine Learning : Markov models, Support Vector Machines (SVM), Conditional Random Fields (CRF), Decision Trees (SCT), Boosting algorithms, Active Learning.
