Abstract
An apparatus includes a processor to: receive, from a requesting device, a request to perform speech-to-text conversion of a speech data set; within a first thread of a thread pool, perform a first pause detection technique to identify a first set of likely sentence pauses; within a second thread of the thread pool, perform a second pause detection technique to identify a second set of likely sentence pauses; perform a speaker diarization technique to identify a set of likely speaker changes; divide the speech data set into data segments representing speech segments based on a combination of at least the first set of likely sentence pauses, the second set of likely sentence pauses, and the set of likely speaker changes; use at least an acoustic model with each data segment to identify likely speech sounds; and generate a transcript based, at least in part, on the identified likely speech sounds.
