Speech recognition and utterance verification based on a generalized confidence score.

In this paper, we introduce a generalized confidence score (GCS) function that enables a framework to integrate different confidence scores in speech recognition and utterance verification. A modified decoder based on the GCS is then proposed. The GCS is defined as a combination of various confidenc...
