Improving Speech Recognition by Detecting Foreign Inclusions and Generating Pronunciations
Original language description
The aim of this paper is to improve speech recognition by enriching language models with automatically detected foreign inclusions from a training text. The enriching is restricted only to foreign, proper-noun inclusions which are typically a dominant part of miss-recognized words. In our suggested approach, character-based n-gram language models are used for detection of foreign, single-word inclusions and for a language identification, and finite state transducers are used to generate foreign pronunciations. Results of this paper show that by enriching language model with English proper nouns found in Czech training text, the recognition of a speech containing English inclusions can be improved by 9.4% relative reduction of WER.
