Speech model refinement with transcription error detection

摘要

Reliable transcription error-checking algorithm that uses a word confidence score and a word duration probability to detect transcription errors for improved results through the automatic detection of transcription errors in a corpus. The transcription error-checking algorithm is combined model training so as to use a current model to detect transcription errors, remove utterances which contain incorrect transcription (or manually fix the found errors), and retrain the model. This process can be repeated for several iterations to obtain an improved speech recognition model. The speech model is employed to achieve speech-transcription alignment to obtain a word boundary. Speech recognizer is then utilized to generate a word-lattice. Using the word boundary and word lattice, error detection is computed using a word confidence score and a word duration probability.
