Abstract

A system for understanding entries, such as speech, develops a classifier by employing prior knowledge with which a given corpus of training entries is enlarged threefold. A rule is created for each of the labels employed in the classifier, and the created rules are applied to the given corpus to create a corpus of attachments by appending a weight of ηp(x), or 1−ηp(x), to labels of entries that meet, or fail to meet, respectively, conditions of the labels' rules, and to also create a corpus of non-attachments by appending a weight of 1−ηp(x), or ηp(x), to labels of entries that meet, or fail to meet conditions of the labels' rules.
