Speech Capture
• Three variables– The human element
• Skill and other human judgments that go in to creating the input to the text processing system
– Technology– The functional requirements of the party for
whom the text is being produced• What will the text be used for?
![Page 3: Realtime Speech to Text: A Means to an End](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56814a22550346895db74a1c/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Functionality
• Two parameters– Speed
• How quickly is text required?
– Accuracy• How exact must the translation be?
• Interrelationship of these two parameters– E.g.; if some delay in production of the final text is
acceptable, there is an opportunity to review and revise in order to correct for any deficiencies in the initial capture and translation.

Realtime
• There are many speech capture/text production applications where you need text as soon as possible but not immediately
• There are some applications where a comprehensible text is needed immediately, but a rough translation is adequate
• There are numerous applications, however, that rely upon true realtime– Instant text production, with no opportunity to revise or
correct– High degree of accuracy

Mistranslates: Steno and Voice• How do you justify stopping the defendant's
vehicle?– How do you just if I stopping the defendant's vehicle?
(voice)– How do you just if he stopping the defendant's vehicle?
(steno)
• Do you recognize this document I've just marked as Exhibit 1?– Do you recognize the stockman I've just marked as it's a
bit 1? (voice)– Do you recognize this doctor I've just marked as Kent
1? (steno)
