Abstract
The thesis reports the design and implementation of our scheme for spoken language acquisition. In the thesis, we discuss the available resources and possible pitfalls for the robot project: we discuss the speech communication techniques that can be or cannot be used in our project; we choose the classifiers that are suitable to our project; and we also present a humancomputer interaction model and the robot training strategies. Based on these analyses and discussions, we develop our learning scheme that can learn online from both labeled and unlabeled data. The learning scheme is based on successive refinement of the decision boundary.
