Abstract :
This paper presents the time-conditioned approach in dynamic programming search for large-vocabulary continuous-speech recognition. The following topics are presented: the baseline algorithm, a time-synchronous beam search version, a comparison with the word-conditioned approach, a comparison with stack decoding. The approach has been successfully tested on the NAB task using a vocabulary of 64000 words
