Abstract
A method of modeling a speech recognition system includes decoding a speech signal produced from a training text to produce a sequence of predicted speech units. The training text comprises a sequence of actual speech units that is used with the sequence of predicted speech units to form a confusion model. In further embodiments, the confusion model is used to decode a text to identify an error rate that would be expected if the speech recognition system decoded speech based on the text.
