Abstract:
A method for eyes-off training of a dictation system includes translating an audio signal featuring speech audio of a speaker into an initial recognized text using a previously-trained general language model. The initial recognized text is provided to the speaker for error correction. The audio signal is re-translated into an updated recognized text using a specialized language model biased to recognize words included in the corrected text. The general language model is retrained in an “eyes-off” manner, based on the audio signal and the updated recognized text.
