STT
Speech-to-Text (STT), also known as Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), is a technology that automatically converts human spoken audio signals into readable text. It relies on acoustic models, language models, and decoding algorithms to recognize continuous natural speech across multiple languages and accents. STT is widely applied in voice assistants, real-time captioning, voice input, and call center analytics, and is a foundational technology in human-computer interaction.
Core Facts
A complete voice AI interaction involves three serial processing stages: STT, LLM inference, and TTS.

Timeline (last 90 days)
In the above measured data, the data and judgment times reflect only text judgment results and do not include the overhead of speech recognition (STT) and speech synthesis (TTS).
Low latency and high recognition accuracy involve the selection of Voice Activity Detection (VAD) and Speech-to-Text (STT) engines
STT models in low signal-to-noise ratio scenarios do not admit that they cannot hear clearly; instead, they tend to fabricate plausible but incorrect words and phrases (producing hallucinations)
Adding preprocessing steps such as noise reduction, dereverberation, volume normalization, and VAD before audio enters the STT system can significantly improve downstream transcription quality.
ODS integrates voice interaction capabilities, supporting speech-to-text (STT) and text-to-speech (TTS)
Different TTS engines each have their own strengths and weaknesses in naturalness, latency, and language coverage, while different STT engines vary in performance on noisy environments and accent recognition
When building voice products, developers typically need to stitch together STT, LLM, and TTS services from multiple vendors, and integrating each provider means a separate set of API documentation, authentication, billing, and error-handling logic
An AI agent capable of making phone calls typically consists of three layers: speech recognition (STT), a conversational brain (LLM), and speech synthesis (TTS).
This project achieved a response latency of approximately 0.3 seconds through fine-grained optimization of the front-end STT and back-end TTS.
The core idea of the sandwich architecture is to place a large language reasoning model (LLM) in the middle, with an STT model added in front for speech recognition and a TTS model added at the back for speech output.
