Abstract
A method (2000), device (2200) and article of manufacture (2300) provide, in response to lexical pronunciation information, efficient generation of postlexical pronunciation information. A method is presented for providing, in response to a lexical pronunciation, efficient generation of a postlexical pronunciation, including the steps of: determining lexical phones, lexical features, and boundary information for a predetermined portion of text; and utilizing a pretrained neural network that was pretrained using lexical phones, postlexical phones, lexical features, and boundary information to generate a neural network hypothesis for a postlexical pronunciation of the predetermined portion of text.
