CONTEXTUAL SPEECH RECOGNITION

A computer-implemented method can include receiving, by a computer system, a request to transcribe spoken input from a user of a computing device, the request including information that (i) characterizes a spoken input, and (ii) context information associated with the user or the computing device. The method can determine, based on the information that characterizes the spoken input, multiple hypotheses that each represent a possible textual transcription of the spoken input. The method can select, based on the context information, one or more of the multiple hypotheses for the spoken input as one or more likely intended hypotheses for the spoken input, and can send the one or more likely intended hypotheses for the spoken input to the computing device. In conjunction with sending the one or more likely intended hypotheses for the spoken input to the computing device, the method can delete the context information.
