Abstract:
The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, a method that includes receiving an audio signal and initiating speech recognition tasks by a plurality of speech recognition systems (SRS's). Each SRS is configured to generate a recognition result specifying possible speech included in the audio signal and a confidence value indicating a confidence in a correctness of the speech result. The method also includes completing a portion of the speech recognition tasks including generating one or more recognition results and one or more confidence values for the one or more recognition results, determining whether the one or more confidence values meets a confidence threshold, aborting a remaining portion of the speech recognition tasks for SRS's that have not generated a recognition result, and outputting a final recognition result based on at least one of the generated one or more speech results.

Claim (Index 15):
A system comprising:\n data processing hardware of a speech recognizer device; and memory hardware in communication with the data processing hardware and storing instructions, that when executed by the data processing hardware, cause the data processing hardware to perform operations comprising:\n receiving a spoken utterance of a user from a telephony server, the telephony server configured to receive the spoken utterance over a network from a user device of the user and route the spoken utterance to the speech recognizer device; \n initiating execution of multiple speech recognition tasks in parallel for the spoken utterance, each speech recognition task configured to generate a corresponding recognition result indicating a candidate transcription for the spoken utterance and a corresponding confidence value identifying a probability that the recognition result is correct; \n determining whether any of the corresponding confidence values generated by the corresponding speech recognition tasks satisfy a threshold confidence value; and \n when none of the confidence values satisfy the threshold confidence value, requesting the telephony server to re-route the spoken utterance to a human operator for addressing information conveyed by the user in the spoken utterance.
