This paper presents an automatic transcription and retrieval system developed for processing spoken lectures in Turkish. The main steps in the system are automatic transcription of Turkish video lectures using a large vocabulary continuous speech recognition (LVCSR) system and finding keywords on the lattices obtained from the LVCSR system using a speech retrieval system based on keyword search. While developing this system, first a state-of-the-art LVCSR system was developed for Turkish using advance acoustic modeling methods, then keywords were extracted automatically front word sequences in the reference transcriptions of video lectures, and a speech retrieval system was developed for searching these keywords in the lattice output of the LVCSR system. The spoken lecture processing system yields 14.2% word error rate and 0.86 maximum term weighted value on the test data.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessLarge vocabulary continuous speech recognitionSpeech retrievalSpeech and language processing for educational technologiesConference Object2-s2.0-85026293796N/AN/AWOS:000413813100238
