Abstract: A graphical user interface is described for human guided audio source separation in a multi-speaker automated transcription system receiving audio signals representing speakers participating together in a speech session. A speaker avatar for each speaker is distributed about a user interface display to suggest speaker positions relative to each other during the speech session. There also is a speaker highlight element on the interface display for visually highlighting a specific speaker avatar corresponding to an active speaker in the speech session to aid a human transcriptionist listening to the speech session to identify the active speaker. A speech signal processor performs signal processing of the audio signals to isolate an audio signal corresponding to the highlighted speaker avatar.

Abstract: A speech transcription system is described for producing a representative transcription text from one or more different audio signals representing one or more different speakers participating in a speech session. A preliminary transcription module develops a preliminary transcription of the speech session using automatic speech recognition having a preliminary recognition accuracy performance. A speech selection module enables user selection of one or more portions of the preliminary transcription to receive higher accuracy transcription processing. A final transcription module is responsive to the user selection for developing a final transcription output for the speech session having a final recognition accuracy performance for the selected one or more portions which is higher than the preliminary recognition accuracy performance.
