Speech Models Training Technologies Comparison Using Word Error Rate

The main purpose of this work is to analyze and compare several technologies used for training speech models, including traditional approaches as Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) and more recent methods as Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). The technologies have been explained and compared using word error rate metric based on the input of 1000 words by a user with 15 decibel background noise. Word error rate metric has been ex- plained and calculated. Potential replacements for com- pared technologies have been provided, including: Atten- tion-based, Generative, Sparse and Quantum-inspired models.
