SPEECH RECOGNITION AND TRAINING FOR DATA INPUTS

Abstract:

A method, system, and computer program product for recognizing, and training to recognize, alphanumeric speech data inputs. The method may include segmenting a data input into a sequential n-gram chunks based on a predetermined rule, where the data input is received through speech recognition. The method may also include receiving metadata regarding characteristics of the data input. The method may also include generating a language model based on the metadata. The method may also include generating a first set of language model variations of the data input. The method may also include training the language model based on at least the first set of language model variations. The method may also include generating one or more alternatives for the data input using the trained language model. The method may also include transmitting an output including the one or more alternatives for the data input.
