An external 6-gram character language model can be used to improve recognition. The language model is trained on the text from the POPP training set.
The model achieves the following results:
set | Language model | CER (%) | WER (%) | N lines |
---|---|---|---|---|
test | no | 16.49 | 36.26 | 479 |
test | yes | 16.09 | 34.52 | 479 |
