Did you know cleaning up the Word List helps improve recognition accuracy and system performance?
Errors in the PowerScribe word list will greatly impact the users' recognition accuracy and system performance. Accidentally adding misspelled words, choosing an incorrect word type, i.e. Jamieson categorized as general instead of a name, incorrect formatting, etc., will impact the recognition accuracy. Thereby, lowering system performance. It is important to maintain a clean word list to help keep your PowerScribe system at an optimal level of performance.
Nuance recommends taking the following into consideration when cleaning up the word list:
- Do not change the state of the words entered by the users. Leave them as is. The System sets them when a user adds the words via training or spell checker.
- Delete words assigned to system.
- Delete trained words assigned to system.
- Add headings at system level.
- Delete headings owned by users.
- Review trained words owned by Dictators.
- All trained words should be in Auto.
- Delete trained words that are a single syllable by themselves.
- Delete trained words that are capitalized, except for proper names (e.g., names of Doctors).
- Delete trained words that have punctuation, except for names of Doctors.
- Have the users retrain words that were removed due to improper format or spelling.
