Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for receiving audio data including an utterance, obtaining context data that indicates one or more expected speech recognition results, determining an expected speech recognition result based on the context data, receiving an intermediate speech recognition result generated by a speech recognition engine, comparing the intermediate speech recognition result to the expected speech recognition result for the audio data based on the context data, determining whether the intermediate speech recognition result corresponds to the expected speech recognition result for the audio data based on the context data, and setting an end of speech condition and providing a final speech recognition result in response to determining the intermediate speech recognition result matches the expected speech recognition result, the final speech recognition result including the one or more expected speech recognition results indicated by the context data.
