Abstract
Techniques are provided for training a target language model based at least in part on data associated with a reference language model. For example, language data utilized to train an English language model may be translated and provided as training data to train a German language model to recognize utterances provided in German. By utilizing the techniques herein, the efficiency of training a new language model may be improved due at least in part to replacing labor-intensive operations conventionally performed by specialized personnel with machine-generated data. Additionally, techniques discussed herein provide for reducing the time required for training a new language model by leveraging information associated with utterances of one language to train the new language model associated with a different language.
