Abstract
Methods and systems to translate input labels of arcs of a network, corresponding to a sequence of states of the network, to a list of output grammar elements of the arcs, corresponding to a sequence of grammar elements. The network may include a plurality of speech recognition models combined with a weighted finite state machine transducer (WFST). Traversal may include active arc traversal, and may include active arc propagation. Arcs may be processed in parallel, including arcs originating from multiple source states and directed to a common destination state. Self-loops associated with states may be modeled within outgoing arcs of the states, which may reduce synchronization operations. Tasks may be ordered with respect to cache-data locality to associate tasks with processing threads based at least in part on whether another task associated with a corresponding data object was previously assigned to the thread.
