Abstract:
1. A method for setting confidence score thresholds in a language processing system, the method comprising: displaying on a user interface a first system confidence score curve characterizing system recognition performance associated with a high confidence threshold; providing on the user interface a first user control for adjusting the high confidence threshold and an associated visual display highlighting a point on the first system confidence score curve representing the selected high confidence threshold; displaying on the user interface a second system confidence score curve characterizing system recognition performance associated with a low confidence threshold; and providing on the user interface a second user control for adjusting the low confidence threshold and an associated visual display highlighting a point on the second system confidence score curve representing the selected low confidence threshold; wherein the operation of the second user control is constrained to require that the low confidence threshold must be less than or equal to the high confidence threshold.
