Challenges in using a Standard Speech Recognition Engine in Small Vocabulary Domain
International Journal of Recent Technology and Engineering (IJRTE) · 2019
This paper discusses the challenges and proposes recommendations on using a standard speech recognition engine for a small vocabulary Air Traffic Controller Pilot communication domain. With the given challenges in transcribing the Air Traffic Communication due to the inherent radio issues in cockpit and the con-troller room, gathering the corpus for training the speech recognition model is another important problem. Taking advantage of the maturity of today’s speech recognition systems for the standard English words used in the communication, this paper focusses on the challenges in decoding the domain specific named entity words used in the communication.
