摘要
The speed of modern processors has remained constant over the last few years but the integration capacity continues to follow Moore's law and thus, to be scalable, applications must be parallelized. This paper presents results in using the A* search algorithm in a large vocabulary speech recognition parallel system. This algorithm allows better parallelization over the Viterbi algorithm. First experiments with a "unigram approximation" heuristic resulted in approximatively 8.7 times less states being explored compared to our classical Viterbi decoder. The multi-thread implementation of the A* decoder led to a speed-up factor of 3 over its sequential counterpart.
