Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for predicting follow-up queries to an initial transcription of an utterance. In some implementations, one or more follow-up queries that are pre-associated with a transcription of an initial utterance of a user are identified. A new or modified language model in which a respective probability associated with one or more of the follow-up queries is increased with respect to an initial language model is obtained. Subsequent audio data corresponding to a subsequent utterance of the user is then received. The subsequent audio data is processed using the new or modified language model to generate a transcription of the subsequent utterance. The transcription of the subsequent utterance is then provided for output to the user.
