It is important to differentiate between transcription and annotation.

Audio or Speech Transcription is the process of converting spoken language into written form. Transcription can be verbatim or non-verbatim. Verbatim transcription includes all conversation filler words, false starts, truncated words or sentences, and pauses. It is a literal conversion of the conversation into written language. Non-verbatim transcription does not include filler words, false starts, truncated words or sentences, and pauses. So, it provides an easy-to-read version of what it has been said in the audio file.

An annotation is any type of additional information that is added to an already existing text, be it a transcription of an audio file or an original text file.

Normally, Audio or Speech Annotation refers to both, the transcription of the audio and the annotation of the resulting text. Annotations add phonological, morphological, syntactic, semantic and discourse information.

It is also usual that Audio or Speech Annotation includes metadata, which is relevant information that refers to the audio file as a whole, rather than individual annotations that provide information about a portion of the data.

It consists of partitioning the input audio file into homogeneous audio segments according to their specific sources. These sources include the identity of the speakers whose voice is recorded in the audio file, music, silence, or background noise. This enables automating the process of analyzing any type of conversation, including call center dialogues and debates.

A phonetic transcription is very similar to a regular transcription, but instead of converting the audio into a sequence of words, it describes the way spoken words are pronounced using phonetic symbols.

The most common alphabetic system of phonetic notation is the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA).

Emotion annotation aims to determine feelings such as anger, happiness, sadness, fear, or surprise. It can be performed on text or audio data. Audio emotion analysis is more accurate since audio provides additional clues such as speech rate, pitch, pitch jumps, or voice intensity.

Emotion detection helps improve human-machine communication, analyze call center dialogues, etc.

It is the process of determining if a segment of speech is perceived as positive, negative or neutral. Audio sentiment analysis is more accurate than text sentiment analysis since audio provides additional information such as the emotional state of the speakers.

It helps gauge customers opinion, monitor brand/product reputation, customer experience and needs, social media, etc.

Data relevance provides information about the quality of data that a system delivers to its users. In particular, it determines to which extend the answer of a search engine or an intelligent assistant provides insight into the question of the user; i.e.: the level of consistency between the content of the data provided and the area of interest of the user.

It aims to determine the accuracy of the speech annotations, including word error rate (substitutions, insertions and deletions), and label error rate according to the annotation guidelines.

It helps assess the quality of the annotated speech in terms of accuracy and interpretation consistency of the annotation guidelines. It also helps complete the guidelines and resolve its ambiguities.

This quality assessment service provides information that helps optimize the effort in data collection and annotation. Quality is a multidimensional parameter that depends on factors such as the volume and quality of the audio, the accuracy of the annotations, the data consistency, the domain and customer’s coverage; and the balance.

This helps focus the data collection and annotation effort where is most needed.
