Abstract
This paper presents the design and results of the Rich Transcription 2004 Spring Meeting Recognition Evaluation. The evaluation included both Speaker Segmentation (SPKR) and Speech-to-Text Transcription (STT) tasks. Three microphone conditions were supported: - Multiple Distant Microphones (the primary condition of interest), - Single Distant Microphone (SDM), and - Individual Head Microphones (IHM) (for the STT task only). The 3 microphone conditions permitted the examination of performance for distant vs. close-talking microphones and single vs. multiple distant microphones. Multi-site training and development corpora were provided to the evaluation participants. The evaluation test set consisted of 8 11-minute meeting excerpts collected at CMU, ICSI, the LDC, and NIST and transcribed by the LDC. Because meetings contain a great deal of overlapping/spontaneous speech, the evaluation featured a new experimental scoring of overlapping speech for the STT task.Citation
