Abstract
Spoken document retrieval has been extensively studied over the years because of its high potential in various applications in the near future. Considering the monosyllabic structure of the Chinese language, a whole class of indexing features for retrieval of spoken documents in Mandarin Chinese using syllable-level statistical characteristics has been studied, and very encouraging experimental results on retrieval of broadcast news speech collected in Taiwan were obtained. This paper reports some interesting initial results and findings obtained in this research.
