Abstract: Some disclosed embodiments are directed to obtaining a decoded audio data including a spoken language utterance recognized in audio data and identifying a disfluency in the decoded audio data. Upon determining that correcting the disfluency would improve a readability score of the decoded audio data, the system generates a particular correction to correct the disfluency and applies the particular correction to the decoded audio data. Then, an updated decoded audio data is generated which reflects the particular correction. The updated decoded audio data has improved readability over the decoded audio data.

Abstract: Systems are configured to obtain streaming audio data comprising language utterances, continuously decode the streaming audio data in order to generate decoded streaming audio data and determine whether a linguistic boundary exists within an initial segment of decoded streaming audio data. When a linguistic boundary is determined to exist, the systems apply a punctuation at the linguistic boundary and output a first portion of the initial segment of the streaming audio data ending at the linguistic boundary while refraining from outputting a second portion of the initial segment which is located temporally subsequent to the first portion of the initial segment. Systems are also configured to delay the output until predetermined punctuation validation processes have been performed.

Abstract: Disclosed speech recognition techniques improve user-perceived latency while maintaining accuracy by: receiving an audio stream, in parallel, by a primary (e.g., accurate) speech recognition engine (SRE) and a secondary (e.g., fast) SRE; generating, with the primary SRE, a primary result; generating, with the secondary SRE, a secondary result; appending the secondary result to a word list; and merging the primary result into the secondary result in the word list. Combining output from the primary and secondary SREs into a single decoder as described herein improves user-perceived latency while maintaining or improving accuracy, among other advantages.

Abstract: A data processing system implements obtaining a first textual content, segmenting the first textual content into a plurality of first segments, and providing each segment of the plurality of first segments to a first natural language processing (NLP) model to obtain a set of first readability scores for the plurality of first segments. The first NLP model is configured to analyze a textual input and to output a readability score representing a measurement of readability of the textual input. The system further implements aggregating the set of first segment readability scores to determine a first readability score for the first textual content, and perform at least one of causing the first readability score to be presented to a user or performing one or more actions on the first textual content based on the readability score.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for early processing of a part of a user input to produce a response to the entire or final user input. While the user input is being received, a partial user input, which is a part of the final user input, is processed to produce a response. The response is a candidate response for the final user input. After the final user input is received, and if the partial user input is determined to match or be equivalent to the final user input, the first response, which is already available, is provided to one or more output devices for presentation. If the final user input is determined to differ from the partial user input, the final user input is processed to produce a second response to the final user input, and the second response is provided for presentation. In some instances, multiple partial user inputs are received and processed.
