Grapheme-to-phoneme (G2P) conversion technology is currently dominated by two methodologies: knowledge-based and data-based approaches. Knowledge-driven methods struggle to adapt to extensive datasets, while data-driven methods rely heavily on high-quality data and require precise feature selection for model construction. To address these challenges, this research aims to propose an integrated approach that combines prior knowledge with data-driven techniques for automatic G2P conversion in the Korean language. In this work, we extract attributes based on pronunciation rules and phonetic transformations between Korean words to construct a decision tree. Subsequently, the model is trained using a data-driven approach for automated phonetic transcription. The proposed integrated model achieves more accurate alignment between input and output variables, effectively capturing phonological variations in continuous Korean speech, and determining corresponding phonemes for graphemes. Rigorous cross-validation confirms its superiority, with an average accuracy of 94.63% in grapheme-to-phoneme conversion, outperforming existing methodologies. In conclusion, this research demonstrates the effectiveness of an integrated approach combining prior knowledge and data-driven techniques for G2P conversion in Korean. The high accuracy and performance of this method are significant for Korean G2P. Our approach can also be applied to low-resource or endangered languages that already have some linguistic research foundation to improve the accuracy of the pronunciation lexicon of the language.
