Estimating the term…
Abstract
An approach to words spotting processes a query including a sequence of terms (e.g., words) to identify one or more subsequences that constitute segments (e.g., phrases) that are likely to occur spoken together in the audio begin searched. The segments are searched for as units. An advantage can include improved accuracy as compared to searching for the terms individually.
