Abstract
This paper describes the improvements in a time synchronous beam search strategy for a 10000-word continuous speech recognition task. The improvements are based on two measures: a tree-organization of the pronunciation lexicon and a novel look-ahead technique at the phoneme level, both of which interact directly with the detailed search at the state levels of the phoneme models. Experimental tests were performed for four speakers on a 12306-word task. As a result of the above measures, the overall search effort was reduced by a factor of 17 without a loss in recognition accuracy.
