A Review of Speech Recognition and Application to Arabic Speech Recognition
摘要
Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) has gained significant attention in recent years due to its applications in various domains such as voice assistants, transcription services, and language learning. However, developing an ASR system for Arabic poses unique challenges due to the complex phonetics, morphology, dialectal variations, and loss of information during speech production. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest techniques and advancements in Arabic ASR. It covers acoustic modeling techniques, language modeling techniques, challenges and recent solutions, and available datasets for training and evaluation, and evaluation metrics like Word Error Rate (WER), Character Error Rate (CER), and Sentence Error Rate (SER). Overall, this survey paper serves as a comprehensive resource for those seeking a holistic understanding of Arabic speech recognition.
