LANGUAGE MODELS USING DOMAIN-SPECIFIC MODEL COMPONENTS

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for language models using domain-specific model components. In some implementations, context data for an utterance is obtained. A domain-specific model component is selected from among multiple domain-specific model components of a language model based on the non-linguistic context of the utterance. A score for a candidate transcription for the utterance is generated using the selected domain-specific model component and a baseline model component of the language model that is domain-independent. A transcription for the utterance is determined using the score the transcription is provided as output of an automated speech recognition system.
