Abstract:
This paper presents a new technique for overcoming several types of speech
recognition errors by post-processing the output of a continuous speech
recognizer. The post-processor output contains fewer errors, thereby
making interpretation by higher-level modules, such as a parser, in a
speech understanding system more reliable. The primary advantage to the
post-processing approach over existing approaches for overcoming SR errors
lies in its ability to introduce options that are not available in the SR
module's output. This work provides evidence for the claim that a modern
continuous speech recognizer can be used successfully in ``black-box''
fashion for robustly interpreting spontaneous utterances in a dialogue with
a human.
