The speaker maps the foreign words to a sequence of phones of his/her native language while pronouncing that foreign word.
algorithm for Epsilon Scattering : /*Initialize prob(G, P ) the probability of G matching P */ 1. for each word i in training set count with string alignment all possible G/P association for all possible epsilon positions in the phonetic transcription /* EM loop */ 2. for each word i in training set alignment path = argmax compute prob new (G, P ) on alignment path 3. if(prob = prob new ) go to 2 The second model was the EW-TP mapping.
