Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) This paper presents fully neural network based language models (LMs) that can leverage long-range conversational contexts beyond utterance boundaries for enhancing automatic speech recognition performance of role play dialogues such as contact center dialogues or service center dialogues. The proposed methods called role play dialogue aware LMs are composed by extending hierarchical recurrent encoder-decoder modeling so as to handle speaker role information in the role play dialogues. This enables us to leverage sequential conversational contexts from start-of-conversation to a current word in a current utterance for estimating the generative probability of a next word. Experiments using contact center dialogue data sets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in terms of perplexity and word error rate.
