- 1) in the iterative computation of probabilities, the assignment operation is changed to accumulation for one prefix may comes from different paths;
- 2) the if condition ```if l^+ not in A_prev then``` after probabilities' computation is deprecated for it is hard to understand and seems unnecessary.
- An **external scorer** would be passed into the decoder to evaluate a candidate prefix during decoding whenever a white space appended in English decoding and any character appended in Mandarin decoding.
- Such external scorer consists of language model, word count or any other customed scorers.
- Such external scorer consists of language model, word count or any other custom scorers.
- The **language model** is built from Task 5, with parameters should be carefully tuned to achieve minimum WER/CER (c.f. Task 7)
- This decoder needs to perform with **high efficiency** for the convenience of parameters tuning and speech recognition in reality.
