WORD CORRECTNESSThis paper proposes a probabilistic framework t o define and evaluate confidence measures for word recognition. We describe a novel method to combine different knowledge sources and estimate the confidence in a word hypothesis, via a neural network. We also propose a measure of the joint performance of the recognition and confidence systems. The definitions and algorithms are illustrated with results on the Switchboard Corpus.
