Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium for real-time acoustic adaptation using stability measures are disclosed. The methods include the actions of receiving a transcription of a first portion of a speech session, wherein the transcription of the first portion of the speech session is generated using a speaker adaptation profile. The actions further include receiving a stability measure for a segment of the transcription and determining that the stability measure for the segment satisfies a threshold. Additionally, the actions include triggering an update of the speaker adaptation profile using the segment, or using a portion of speech data that corresponds to the segment. And the actions include receiving a transcription of a second portion of the speech session, wherein the transcription of the second portion of the speech session is generated using the updated speaker adaptation profile.
