Adapting An Utterance Cut-Off Period Based On Parse Prefix Detection

摘要

A processing system detects a period of non-voice activity and compares its duration to a cutoff period. The system adapts the cutoff period based on parsing previously-recognized speech to determine, according to a model, such as a machine-learned model, the probability that the speech recognized so far is a prefix to a longer complete utterance. The cutoff period is longer when a parse of previously recognized speech has a high probability of being a prefix of a longer utterance.
