It’s used to improve the accuracy of transcription by helping the computer recognize the nuances of human language, such as grammar, syntax, and context. NLP uses techniques such as language modeling, which helps predict the most likely word or phrase based on the surrounding words, and named entity recognition, which identifies and categorizes proper nouns like names of people, places, and organizations. These techniques help improve the accuracy and efficiency of transcription by identifying and correcting errors in the transcription and making it easier for the computer to understand the spoken content.</p> </div></div> <div class="block text-image"> <div> <div class="grid-x align-middle grid-margin-y grid-margin-x"> <div class="cell medium-6 large-5 medium-order-2 medium-offset-0 large-offset-1 "> <div class="image-holder text-center"> <a href="https://www.amberscript.com/en/blog/how-speech-to-text-software-works/" target="_blank" rel="noreferer, ,noopener"> <picture decoding="async" class="img-responsive"> <source type="image/webp" srcset="https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/pexels-christina-morillo-1181681-640x427.jpg.webp 640w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/pexels-christina-morillo-1181681-1079x720.jpg.webp 1079w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/pexels-christina-morillo-1181681-768x513.jpg.webp 768w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/pexels-christina-morillo-1181681-1536x1025.jpg.webp 1536w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/pexels-christina-morillo-1181681-2048x1367.jpg.webp 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"/> <img decoding="async" width="640" height="427" src="https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/pexels-christina-morillo-1181681-640x427.jpg" alt="woman using a laptop while wearing headphones" srcset="https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/pexels-christina-morillo-1181681-640x427.jpg 640w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/pexels-christina-morillo-1181681-1079x720.jpg 1079w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/pexels-christina-morillo-1181681-768x513.jpg 768w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/pexels-christina-morillo-1181681-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/pexels-christina-morillo-1181681-2048x1367.jpg 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px"/> </picture> </a> </div> </div> <div class="cell medium-6 large-5 "> <h6>Learn more</h6> <h3>What is speech to text software and how does it work?</h3> <a class="button theme-color-secondary" id="button_block_b7dd6f9467b712c3fc3f9d3aaae00703" href="https://www.amberscript.com/en/blog/how-speech-to-text-software-works/" target="_self">Read more about ASR</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'> <h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>How <a href="https://www.amberscript.com/en/">Amberscript</a> Works</strong></h3> </div></div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'> <p>Amberscript is a transcription service that uses both ASR and NLP to deliver accurate and high-quality transcripts.

Background noise, accents, and technical terminology are just a few examples of obstacles that transcribers may face. But fear not! With some tips and best practices, these challenges can be overcome.</p> </div></div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'> <h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Background noise </strong></h4> </div></div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'> <p>Background noise can make it hard to hear the speakers or distinguish between different voices. To tackle this, it’s important to make sure that the audio recording is of good quality and to use noise-cancellation software or headphones to help reduce unwanted sounds. For example, a journalist conducting an interview in a busy coffee shop can use a directional microphone to pick up the interviewee’s voice and minimize background noise.</p> </div></div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'> <h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Strong accents</strong></h4> </div></div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'> <p>Strong accents can make certain words or phrases difficult to understand. A transcription service that offers language-specific models or employs transcribers who are familiar with the accent can be a big help. For instance, a podcaster interviewing a guest from another country with a thick accent can use a transcription service that has expertise in that language or accent.</p> </div></div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'> <h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Technical terminology</strong></h4> </div></div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'> <p>Technical terminology can also be a headache for transcriptionists, particularly in fields such as law or medicine. Providing the transcriber with a list of technical terms or using a transcription service that offers custom models for specific industries can help ensure accuracy. For example, a lawyer dictating legal briefs can use a transcription service that specializes in legal transcription and has a team of legal experts who are familiar with legal terminology.</p> </div></div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'> <p>In conclusion, accurate transcription can be challenging, but with the right tools and strategies, it can be done effectively. By using noise-cancellation software, language-specific models, and custom models, transcriptionists and clients alike can overcome common challenges and achieve high-quality transcriptions. </p> </div></div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'><div class="image-block-wrapper"> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><picture decoding="async" class="wp-image-66124"> <source type="image/webp" srcset="https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/edit-1-1274x720.png.webp 1274w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/edit-1-640x362.png.webp 640w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/edit-1-768x434.png.webp 768w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/edit-1-1536x868.png.webp 1536w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/edit-1.png.webp 1600w" sizes="(max-width: 1274px) 100vw, 1274px"/> <img decoding="async" width="1274" height="720" src="https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/edit-1-1274x720.png" alt="" srcset="https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/edit-1-1274x720.png 1274w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/edit-1-640x362.png 640w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/edit-1-768x434.png 768w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/edit-1-1536x868.png 1536w, https://www.amberscript.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/edit-1.png 1600w" sizes="(max-width: 1274px) 100vw, 1274px"/> </picture> </figure> </div></div></div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'> <h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>How Amberscript ensures high-quality transcriptions</strong></h3> </div></div> <div class='grid-x'><div class='large-11 cell'> <p>When it comes to delivering high-quality transcriptions, Amberscript doesn’t cut corners.
