US Patent 11935519 Preserving speech hypotheses across computing devices and/or dialog sessions

Implementations can receive, at a computing device, audio data corresponding to a spoken utterance of a user, process the audio data to generate, for one or more parts of the spoken utterance, a plurality of speech hypotheses, select a given one of the speech hypotheses, cause the given one of the speech hypotheses to be incorporated as a portion of a transcription associated with the software application, and store the plurality of speech hypotheses. In some implementations, the plurality of speech hypotheses can be loaded at an additional computing device when the transcription is accessed at the additional computing device. In additional or alternative implementations, the plurality of speech hypotheses can be loaded into memory of the computing device when the software application is reactivated and/or when a subsequent dialog session associated with the transcription is initiated.
