Abstract

Neural sequence-to-sequence automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems are in principle open vocabulary systems, when using appropriate modeling units. In practice, however, they often fail to recognize words not seen during training, e.g., named entities, numbers or technical terms. To alleviate this problem, Huber et al. proposed to supplement an end-to-end ASR system with a word/phrase memory and a mechanism to access this memory to recognize the words and phrases correctly. In this paper we study, a) methods to acquire important words for this memory dynamically and, b) the trade-off between improvement in recognition accuracy of new words and the potential danger of false alarms for those added words. We demonstrate significant improvements in the detection rate of new words with only a minor increase in false alarms (F1 score 0.30 $\rightarrow$ 0.80), when using an appropriate number of new words. In addition, we show that important keywords can be extracted from supporting documents and used effectively.
