Confidences are integral to ASR systems, and applied to data selection, adaptation, ranking hypotheses, arbitration etc.Hybrid ASR system is inherently a match between pronunciations and AM+LM evidence but current confidence features lack pronunciation information. We develop pronunciation embeddings to represent and factorize acoustic score in relevant bases, and demonstrate 8-10% relative reduction in false alarm (FA) on large scale tasks. We generalize to standard NLP embeddings like Glove, and show 16% relative reduction in FA in combination with Glove.
