Transparent monitoring and intervention to improve automatic adaptation of speech models

A system and method to improve the automatic adaptation of one or more speech models in automatic speech recognition systems. After a dialog begins, for example, the dialog asks the customer to provide spoken input and it is recorded. If the speech recognizer determines it may not have correctly transcribed the verbal response, i.e., voice input, the invention uses monitoring and if necessary, intervention to guarantee that the next transcription of the verbal response is correct. The dialog asks the customer to repeat his verbal response, which is recorded and a transcription of the input is sent to a human monitor, i.e., agent or operator. If the transcription of the spoken input is correct, the human does not intervene and the transcription remains unmodified. If the transcription of the verbal response is incorrect, the human intervenes and the transcription of the misrecognized word is corrected. In both cases, the dialog asks the customer to confirm the unmodified and corrected transcription. If the customer confirms the unmodified or newly corrected transcription, the dialog continues and the customer does not hang up in frustration because most times only one misrecognition occurred. Finally, the invention uses the first and second customer recording of the misrecognized word or utterance along with the corrected or unmodified transcription to automatically adapt one or more speech models, which improves the performance of the speech recognition system.

Speech-to-speech translation system with user-modifiable paraphrasing grammars

The present invention discloses a speech-to-speech translation device which allows one or more users to input a spoken utterance in one language, translates the utterance into one or more second languages, and outputs the translation in speech form. Additionally, the device allows for translation both directions, recognizing inputs in the one or more second languages and translating them back into the first language. The device recognizes and translates utterances in a limited domain as in a phrase book translation system, so the translation accuracy is essentially 100%. By limiting the domain the system increases the accuracy of the speech recognition component and thus the accuracy of the overall system. However unlike other phrase book systems, the device also allows wide variations and paraphrasing in the input, so that the user is much more likely to find the desired phrase from the stored list of phrases. The device paraphrases the input to a basic canonical form and performs the translation on that canonical form, ignoring the non-essential variations in the surface form of the input. The device can provide visual and / or auditory feedback to confirm the recognized input and makes the system usable for non-bilingual users with absolute confidence.

Method and system for speech recognition

A method and a system for speech recognition are provided. In the method, vocal characteristics are captured from speech data and used to identify a speaker identification of the speech data. Next, a first acoustic model is used to recognize a speech in the speech data. According to the recognized speech and the speech data, a confidence score of the speech recognition is calculated and it is determined whether the confidence score is over a threshold. If the confidence score is over the threshold, the recognized speech and the speech data are collected, and the collected speech data is used for performing a speaker adaptation on a second acoustic model corresponding to the speaker identification.
