Mpaligner is the many-to-many string alignment tool based on the generative model which is modified to find a minimum mapping between two strings, such as notation and pronunciation. Mpaligner has some functions. The partial annotation function enables you to give correct alignment to part data by manpower (to provide Semi-supervised training). The detection function of special data detects data that is difficult to do alignment (for example tri'plei). The data which alignment is done is employed as training data. For example, when two strings which alignment is done are notation and pronunciation, it is employed as training data to construct a model for grapheme-to-phoneme conversion (g2p conversion). The license of mpaligner is GNU GPL.
If you hope to learn a model with aligned data produced by mpaligner to estimate pronunciation and to estimate a pronunciation with the learned model, please use slearp ( http://sourceforge.jp/projects/slearp/ ) which implements the learning methods for the model and a predict function to estimate a pronunciation.

自動読み付与（発音付与）のための文字列アライメントツールです．
多対多のアライメントを提供し，与えられた2つの文字列の最小パターンを見つけます．
アライメント結果は未知語に対する読み付与などに使用されます．
部分的にアライメントの正解を与える部分的アノテーションやある特定の表記と読みの
対応付けを他の対応付けよりも有利にしたり禁止したりできます．
また，特殊な表記と読みの対応付け（[AAA,トリプルエー]など）を検出する機能があります．
ライセンスは GNU GPL です．
