Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for creating a static language model from a mixture of n-gram language models. One of the methods includes receiving a set of development sentences W, receiving a set of language models GM, determining a set of n-gram language model weights λM based on the development sentences W and the set of language models GM, determining a set of sentence cluster weights γC, each of the sentence cluster weights corresponding to a cluster in a set of sentence clusters, each cluster in the set of sentence clusters associated with at least one sentence from the set of development sentences W, and generating a language model from the set of language models GM, the set of n-gram language model weights λM, the set of sentence clusters, and the set of sentence cluster weights γC.
