Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for transcribing utterances into written text are disclosed. The methods, systems, and apparatus include actions of obtaining a lexicon model that maps phones to spoken text and obtaining a language model that assigns probabilities to written text. Further includes generating a transducer that maps the written text to the spoken text, the transducer mapping multiple items of the written text to an item of the spoken text. Additionally, the actions include constructing a decoding network for transcribing utterances into written text, by composing the lexicon model, the inverse of the transducer, and the language model.
