Abstract

Techniques for using multiple machine learning (ML) models, with varying compute costs, for ASR processing is described. The system may include an arbitrator component configured to determine which ML model is to be used to process an audio frame from a sequence of audio frames representing a spoken natural language input. The arbitrator component may switch between the ML models, on a frame-by-frame basis, to reduce an overall compute cost for the entire spoken natural language input. The outputs of the different ML models may be combined to determine the final output for the entire spoken natural language input.
