Tokyo Dialect MELOdic accent DICtionary
This module generates a large scale accent dictionary of Japanese (Tokyo dialect) using a neural network based technique.
The objective of this module is to generate a large vocabulary Japanese accent dictionary, exploiting existing two dictionaries: UniDic and NEologd. UniDic provides accurate accent information of words, but its vocabulary size is not necessarilly large. NEologd is a very large Japanese dictionary but it does not provide accent information of words.
