For example, transforming 'kitten' to 'sitting' requires 3 operations: substitution (k->s), substitution (e->i), and insertion (g).
The formula helps in assessing the similarity between two strings, u...
WER, or Word Error Rate, measures the accuracy of speech recognition systems by comparing transcriptions to reference texts.
WER is calculated as: WER = (S + D + I) / N, where S = substitutions, D = deletions, I = insertions, and N = total words in reference.
A WER of 0% indicates perfect accuracy, while a higher percentage signifies more errors in the transcription.
For example, if the reference text is 'Hello world...

After having all discussion , in HR round , my date of joining was agreed as either 2nd April 2024 or 25 March .
My last date in my previous organization was 31st March , but I asked for an early relive so that I can join here . My request was entertained and I was given relieving letter as on 22nd March .
I handed this to the concerned HR as well to get all the formalities done.
