Abstract

Early selection of operating parameters for improving accuracy of transcriptions generated by automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. In one embodiment, a server receives an audio recording that includes speech, taken over a period spanning at least two hours. During the first hour, the server receives a ground truth transcription of a certain segment of the audio recording, created by a transcriber after listening to the certain segment. The server operates an ASR system a plurality of times, using a plurality of sets of operating parameters, to generate a plurality of respective transcriptions of the certain segment. The server evaluates accuracies of the plurality of transcriptions with respect to the ground truth transcription, and selects an optimal set of operating parameters. The server may then apply the optimal set of operating parameters to transcribe additional segments of the audio recording utilizing the ASR system.
