Abstract

A computer-implemented system and method for transcription error reduction is provided. A transcribed value is assigned to each utterance obtained from a user during a call and a confidence score is assigned to each transcribed value. An accuracy threshold is applied to the confidence scores and the transcribed values that satisfy the accuracy threshold are incorporated in a message. A grouping is generated for at least one of the utterances associated with one such transcribed value that fails to satisfy the accuracy threshold. The grouping includes the at least one utterance and related utterances from other calls. Further transcribed values for at least a portion of the utterances in the grouping are received from human transcribers. The remaining utterances in the grouping are provided to the human transcribers when the further transcribed values differ. The further transcribed value for the at least one utterance is incorporated in the message.
