Reply To: How does recognition score works?

[Halle Winkler]

Hi Luis,

It’s very much relative to that particular speaker and session and the size of the language model. It can’t be reliably used to create arbitrary cutoffs in my experience except perhaps with extremely low values (like -500000 or lower). I wish it were more useful for the task of evaluating accuracy but I haven’t encountered a case yet where it was possible to rely on the score so I’ve reversed my old advice that it could be used in this way.
