Abstract
An apparatus includes processor(s) to: use an acoustic model to generate a first set of probabilities of speech sounds uttered within speech audio; derive at least a first candidate word most likely spoken in the speech audio using the first set; analyze the first set to derive a degree of uncertainty therefor; compare the degree of uncertainty to a threshold; in response to at least the degree of uncertainty being less than the threshold, select the first candidate word as a next word most likely spoken in the speech audio; in response to at least the degree of uncertainty being greater than the threshold, select, as the next word most likely spoken in the speech audio, a second candidate word indicated as being most likely spoken based on a second set of probabilities generated by a language model; and add the next word most likely spoken to a transcript.
