Abstract

Examples of techniques text-to-speech pre-processing for speech recognition and speech synthesis are disclosed. In one example implementation, a computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a processing device, an automated speech recognition output comprising an n-best list and associated confidence scores. The method further includes performing, by the processing device, a TTS pre-processing on the n-best list and associated confidence scores to generate a read back message, wherein the read back message comprises a read back instruction. The method further includes sending, by the processing device, the read back message to a TTS speech synthesizer for generating an audible signal based on the read back message to cause an audio device to present the read back message.
