چکیده

This paper proposes a probabilistic framework to de ne and evaluate con dence measures for word recognition. We describe a novel method to combine di erent knowledge sources and estimate the con dence in a word hypothesis, via a neural network. We also propose a measure of the joint performance of the recognition and con dence systems. The de nitions and algorithms are illustrated with results on the Switchboard Corpus.

Improving posterior based confidence measures in hybrid HMM/ANN speech recognition systems

In this paper, building upon previous work by others [7], we define and investigate a set of confidence measures based on hybrid Hidden Markov Model/Artificial Neural Network (HMM/ANN) acoustic models. All these measures are using the neural network to estimate the local phone posterior probabilities, which are then combined and normalized in different ways. Experimental results will indeed sho...

Confidence Measures for Evaluating Pronunciation Models

In this paper, we investigate the use of confidence measures for the evaluation of pronunciation models and the employment of these evaluations in an automatic baseform learning process. The confidence measures and pronunciation models are obtained from the ABBOT hybrid Hidden Markov Model/Artificial Neural Network (HMM/ANN) Large Vocabulary Continuous Speech Recognition (LVCSR) system [8]. Exp...
