Zusammenfassung

In this paper, we present the cross-lingual adaptation of the MyVoice system from the Czech to the Spanish language. MyVoice was developed to allow motor-handicapped people to voice control their PCs and applications. Our objective was to cost-efficiently adapt it to the Spanish language using uniquely the resources available for Czech. Experimental results show that up to 96.73% recognition accuracy can be achieved for Spanish using MyVoice's Czech speech recognition environment.
