Abstract
This paper presents a new method of using confidence vector as an intermediate input feature for the multi-stage based speech recognition. The multi-stage based speech recognition is a method to reduce the computational complexity of the decoding procedure and thus accomplish faster speech recognition. In the multi-stage speech recognition, however, the error of previous stage is transferred to the next stage. This tends to cause the deterioration of the overall performance. We focus on improving the accuracy by introducing confidence vector instead of phoneme which typically used as an intermediate feature between the acoustic decoder and the lexical decoder, the first two stages in the multi-stage speech recognition. The experimental results show up to 16.4% error reduction rate(ERR) of word accuracy for 220k Korean Point-of-Interest (POI) domain and 29.6% ERR of word accuracy for hotel reservation dialog domain.
