Abstract
A computing system including one or more processors configured to receive an audio input. The one or more processors may generate a text transcription of the audio input at a sequence-to-sequence speech recognition model, which may assign a respective plurality of external-model text tokens to a plurality of frames included in the audio input. Each external-model text token may have an external-model alignment within the audio input. Based on the audio input, the one or more processors may generate a plurality of hidden states. Based on the plurality of hidden states, the one or more processors may generate a plurality of output text tokens. Each output text token may have a corresponding output alignment within the audio input. For each output text token, a latency between the output alignment and the external-model alignment may be below a predetermined latency threshold. The one or more processors may output the text transcription.
