TLDR
Current efforts to recognize continuous (or “connected”) speech are aimed at constructing a voice-excited “typewriter” that automatically transcribes natural speech into ordinary (e.g. English) written form.
Abstract
Current efforts to recognize continuous (or “connected”) speech are aimed at constructing a voice-excited “typewriter” that automatically transcribes natural speech into ordinary (e.g. English) written form. So far, however, only very restricted speech has been recognized. The sentences that are spoken must either be prescribed a priori by an artificial grammar which the experimenter has designed, or else limited by a vocabulary and a restricted area of discourse such as that used in business letters, book reviews, or airline reservation systems. These latter so-called natural tasks are generally much more difficult than the artificial ones (given a fixed vocabulary).

Continuous automatic speech recognition by lipreading

TL;DR: While this study focuses on the feasibility, validity, and segregated contribution of exclusively continuous OASR, future highly robust recognition systems should combine optical and acoustic information with syntactic, semantic and pragmatic aids.

Acoustic-Phonetic Decoding and Adaptation in Continuous Speech Recognition

TL;DR: The novelty of this phonetic recognizer mainly lies in the strategy of recognition that takes into account different levels of recognition, the way by which segmentation and identification are combined, and the adaptation module which gives the phonetic processor leave to easily adapt to new speakers or to new tasks.

Continuous speech recognition by statistical methods

TL;DR: Experimental results are presented that indicate the power of the methods and concern modeling of a speaker and of an acoustic processor, extraction of the models' statistical parameters and hypothesis search procedures and likelihood computations of linguistic decoding.
