Abstract
Although the research community pays little attention to (Inverse) Text
Normalization (TN and ITN), this is an essential module in Text-to-Speech
(TTS) and Speech Recognition (SR) systems: it has a significant
development timeline and requires deep linguistic expertise [1-3]. We
present a framework that can deal simultaneously with TN and ITN, which
was applied to twelve different languages. The rules were tested and
subsequently refined. The overall performance of the system is presented
and discussed. Here we focus on the ambiguity resolution implemented in
three languages (Dutch, English, French, Italian) in the normalization of
web-search-specific terms and mobile text messages.
