Pronunciation prediction in speech recognition.

摘要

An automatic speech recognition (ASR) device may be configured to predict the pronunciation of a text identifier (eg, song title, etc.) based on a prediction of one or more source languages of the text identifier. One or more source languages may be determined based on the text identifier. The pronunciation may include a pronunciation of one language, a pronunciation of the second language, and a mixed pronunciation that combines a plurality of languages. Pronunciations may be added to the lexicon and matched against content items (eg, songs) and / or text identifiers. The ASR device may receive an oral utterance from a user requesting an ASR device to access the content item. The ASR device determines whether the verbal utterance matches one of the pronunciations of the content item on the lexicon. The ASR device then accesses the content when the verbal utterance matches one of the pronunciations of the previous potential text identifier.
