Abstract

The accuracy of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems is generally evaluated using corpora of grammatically sound read speech or natural spontaneous speech. This prohibits an accurate estimation of the performance of the acoustic modeling part of ASR because the language modeling performance is inherently integrated in the overall performance metric. In this work, ASR and human speech recognition (HSR) accuracies are compared for null grammar sentences in different signal-to-noise ratios and vocabulary sizes-1000, 2000, 4000, and 8000. The results shed light on differences between ASR and HSR in relative significance of bottom-up word recognition and context awareness.
