A series of studies using the framework has shown that including such additional structure can markedly improve lexicon discovery (Johnson et al., 2006;Johnson and Demuth, 2010;Johnson and Goldwater, 2009b;Johnson, 2008a;Börschinger and Johnson, 2014;Johnson, 2008b).
unsupervised Lexicon Discovery to models of spoken term discovery and word segmentation, our model addresses the problem of jointly inferring phonological and lexical structure directly from acoustic input.
