Large-scale language models (LLMs) such as GPT-2, BERT and RoBERTa have been successfully applied to ASR N-best rescoring. However, whether or how they can benefit competitive, near state-of-the-art ASR systems remains unexplored. In this study, we incorporate LLM rescoring into one of the most competitive ASR baselines: the Conformer-Transducer model. We demonstrate that consistent improvement is achieved by the LLM's bidirectionality, pretraining, in-domain finetuning and context augmentation. Furthermore, our lexical analysis sheds light on how each of these components may be contributing to the ASR performance.

  1. MTLM: Incorporating Bidirectional Text Information to Enhance Language Model Training in Speech Recognition Systems

    cs.CL 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Training an ASR language model with a mix of unidirectional, bidirectional masked, and corrupted-context objectives yields lower word error rates across shallow fusion and n-best rescoring than unidirectional training alone.
