Abstract
In some embodiments, the invention involves a method including segmenting an utterance into at least a first segment and a second segment, wherein a boundary between the first and second segments corresponds to a break in the utterance. The method further includes selecting potential hypothetical paths of potential words in the first and second segments that cross the boundary. The method also includes applying a language model to the potential hypothetical paths crossing to determine whether to merge the first and second segments and to apply decoding to the merged segments.
