  1. See this link to notice that you’ll need the speaker to complete the sentence before using a BRNN to transcribe the voice input.
  2. You can use beam search for this as well. Do look at other sources to see if there’s a metric for voice to text task.
  3. Assuming we’re talking about machine translation using RNNs, provide previous hidden state and current word as input to predict the next word. Previous hidden state is all 0s for a<0>. This is the general mode of operation of an RNN. The encoder learns the entire representation of the input sentence before emitting the translated sentence.
