Advances of speech recognition technology have dramatically altered human interaction with machines, making it more intuitive and efficient. The paper explores a new methodology in enhancing user experience by fusing spoken input with natural language processing or predictive text models. Taking a stride forward in using algorithms of natural language processing at their apex, we design a system that predicts the next word with accuracy through spoken input. Our methodology involves training a hybrid model that combines classic n-gram techniques with modern deep learning architectures such as Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks so as to better understand context and achieve higher accuracy in predictions. The performance of our proposed model by using different metrics, namely accuracy, response time, and user satisfaction, using a variety of datasets containing diverse speech patterns and linguistic contexts. Our experimental results showed improvements of significant orders in prediction accuracy and lower reaction times compared to competing systems. Feedback from the users further showed improvements of significant orders in interaction fluidity and satisfaction. Indeed, this work opens new avenues for integrating speech recognition with predictive models for text in an application for user-centric applications.
