ASR-complete
ASR-complete is, by analogy to "NP-completeness" in complexity theory, a term to indicate that the difficulty of a computational problem is equivalent to solving the central automatic speech recognition problem, i.e. recognize and understanding spoken language. Unlike "NP-completeness", this term is typically used informally.
Such problems are hypothesised to include:
- Spoken natural language understanding
- Understanding speech from far-field microphones, i.e. handling the reverbation and background noise
