Automatic Transcriber of Meetings Utilising Speech Recognition Technology

摘要

Conducting meetings is an important part of the Australian Defence Organisation (ADO) activities. Meetings span a broad range of knowledge sharing and collaborative activities; examples are interviews, informal discussions, brain-storming sessions, vide-conferences and presentations. Thus, looking at ways to improve the capture of information from these meetings is of interest to the ADO. This report presents progress towards the application of speech recognition technology to automatically produce text transcriptions of collaborative meetings. The report reviews the literature on automatic transcription systems and describes the progress on the research and development of a concept demonstrator named AuTM (Automatic Transcriber of Meetings).
