After the pandemic gave rise to a renewed popularity of virtual events, more organizations are looking for live captioning solutions \u2013 but keep in mind, not all live captions are created the same. Almost more important than providing live captions, it&#8217;s crucial to provide a high level of accuracy in live captioning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What are live captions?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Live closed captions are time-synchronized text that appears in real time and can be used for a multitude of reasons, such as virtual events, meetings, online classes, or performances.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s important that virtual events provide live captions in order to create a fully accessible experience for those who may be d\/Deaf or hard of hearing, but captions have the added ability to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/blog\/how-captions-transcripts-increase-engagement-with-videos\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">improve audience engagement<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/go.3playmedia.com\/usfsp-captions-transcripts-study\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">overall comprehension<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Additionally, the business benefits offered by captions hold the potential to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/blog\/benefits-of-accessible-video-for-publishers\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">boost search engine optimization<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and enhance the user experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, to properly harness the benefits of live captions they <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">must<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> be accurate. The accuracy rate of live captioning often depends on the method by which they were created, which could be through the use of automatic speech recognition (ASR) or a human captioner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span class=\"su-highlight\" style=\"background:#DEEFF5;color:#000000\">&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/blog\/why-you-need-live-human-captions-to-stream-events\/\">Why you need live (human) captions to stream events<\/a> \u27a1\ufe0f&nbsp;<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Automatic vs. human-generated captions<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are several different ways to incorporate live captions, but the two most popular are live automatic captioning and live human captioning.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Live automatic captioning<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While automatic captions are more readily available and less expensive (generated through popular meeting platforms like Zoom), their <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/blog\/the-current-state-of-automatic-speech-recognition-why-we-still-need-humans-for-captioning\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">accuracy rates are notoriously low<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Live automatic captions do not involve a human captioner and are written using artificial intelligence (AI) like ASR. Because of this, the likelihood of errors in punctuation, speaker identifications, and grammar greatly increases. In addition, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/blog\/dog-training-and-machine-learning-what-they-have-in-common\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">AI doesn\u2019t have the same capacity for contextualization<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> as a human being \u2013\u00a0meaning that when ASR misunderstands a word, there\u2019s a possibility it will be substituted with something irrelevant, or omitted altogether.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-box su-box-style-default\" id=\"\" style=\"border-color:#b3003c;border-radius:5px\"><div class=\"su-box-title\" style=\"background-color:#E6006F;color:#ffffff;border-top-left-radius:3px;border-top-right-radius:3px\">Errors can affect viewer understanding<\/div><div class=\"su-box-content su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"border-bottom-left-radius:3px;border-bottom-right-radius:3px\">\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Omission errors can drastically change the meaning of a sentence! Consider the following example:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThe flash flood warning for Suffolk County has been lifted.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThe flash flood warning for Suffolk County has <strong>NOT<\/strong> been lifted.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, industry standards find it acceptable to omit stammers, false starts, and filler words like \u2018um\u2019 or \u2018ah.\u2019<\/span><br \/>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While there is currently no definitive legal requirement for live captioning accuracy rates, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/blog\/us-laws-video-accessibility\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">existing federal and state captioning regulations<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> for recorded content state that accessible accommodations must provide an <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">equal experience<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to that of a hearing viewer. This condition, coupled with their tendency toward low accuracy means that live automatic captions alone are not sufficient to provide an equitable experience for d\/Deaf or hard of hearing viewers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span class=\"su-highlight\" style=\"background:#DEEFF5;color:#000000\">&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/blog\/us-laws-video-accessibility\/\">Learn more about accessibility laws<\/a> \ud83d\udcd1&nbsp;<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Live human captioning<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By comparison, live human captioning is significantly more accurate and reliable. While <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/blog\/caption-quality\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">neither AI nor human captioners can provide 100% accuracy<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, the most effective methods of live captioning incorporate both in order to get as close as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are two primary ways to include humans in live captioning workflows:\u00a0CART and voice writing. Communication Access Real-time Translation (or CART for short) employs a skilled transcriber operating a stenotype keyboard to produce captions in real time, or as close to it as possible. The process of voice writing, on the other hand, consists of a few more components:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The <strong>original speaker<\/strong> at the live event<\/li>\n<li>A highly trained <strong>voice writer<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Specially tuned <strong>ASR software<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Whichever method is used, the human touch is irreplaceable in producing accurate, real-time captions. Once again, the lack of common standards for live captioning makes appropriately measuring accuracy a somewhat subjective endeavor. However, there is a generally accepted formula used to evaluate accuracy:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"featured-snippet\" style=\"background-color: #f1f1f2;padding: 30px\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #ffffff;padding: 20px;max-width: 95%;margin-bottom: 20px;border: 2px solid #0095d6\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left\"><strong>Calculating caption accuracy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Accuracy = (Total # words captioned &#8211; Incorrect words captioned) \/ Total # words captioned x 100<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">For example, if a captioner writes 10,000 words during a live event and 200 of those words were incorrect, the resulting accuracy rate would be 98%.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While this is a useful working definition, the number of \u201cincorrect words captions\u201d in this equation doesn\u2019t account for punctuation mistakes, words that are omitted, or substitutions. As seen in the example above, these types of errors can impact the understanding of a d\/Deaf or hard of hearing viewer. To remedy this oversight in calculation, the FCC\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cornell.edu\/cfr\/text\/47\/79.1\">Report and Order<\/a> on closed captioning quality specifies: <div class=\"su-quote su-quote-style-default su-quote-has-cite\"><div class=\"su-quote-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\"> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">[We should] consider \u201caccuracy\u201d of captions to be a measurement of the percentage\u00a0 of correct words out of total words in the program, calculated by <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">subtracting number of errors from total number of words in the program, dividing that number by total number of words in the program and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">converting that number to a percentage.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span class=\"su-quote-cite\">Federal Communication Commission<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>No matter how you calculate accuracy, it&#8217;s undeniable that human involvement in your live captioning workflow increases your chances of producing accurate, comprehensible, and engaging captions at your next virtual event.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center\">Want to learn more about live captioning?<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/go.3playmedia.com\/lac-quality\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-25996 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/live-captioning-quality-WP.jpg\" alt=\"The lowdown on live captioning: understanding live captioning quality with link to download guide\" width=\"1000\" height=\"286\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n                                                \n                                                <hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" style=\"margin-bottom:0\" \/>\n                                                \n\n                                                \n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-6c28011a wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);margin-bottom:0;padding-right:0;padding-bottom:0;\">\n\t<p style=\"margin-top:0\">Filed under<\/p>\n\t\n\n<span class=\"wp-block-tribe-terms__empty-msg t-category\">No Tags<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n                                                \n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-dda23514 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-right:0;padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0\">About the author<\/p>\n\n\n<div style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);\" class=\"wp-block-post-author\"><div class=\"wp-block-post-author__avatar\"><img alt='' src='https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/077af0eed48d15985c692daeff79eaff223726049f53bd6ef9a51ffb76629ed1?s=96&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g' srcset='https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/077af0eed48d15985c692daeff79eaff223726049f53bd6ef9a51ffb76629ed1?s=192&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-96 photo' height='96' width='96' \/><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-post-author__content\"><p class=\"wp-block-post-author__name\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.3playmedia.com\/blog\/author\/3playmedia\/\" target=\"_self\">3Play Media<\/a><\/p><p class=\"wp-block-post-author__bio\"><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n                                                \n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-fe217b39 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:0\">Share this page<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-fe217b39 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-outermost-social-sharing has-normal-icon-size has-icon-color is-style-logos-only is-content-justification-left is-layout-flex wp-container-outermost-social-sharing-is-layout-95ca00fe wp-block-social-sharing-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--10)\"><li style=\"color: #767676;
