Example PII redaction and identification output
The following examples show redacted output from batch and streaming jobs, and PII identification from a streaming job.
Transcription jobs using content redaction generate two types of
confidence values. The Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) confidence
indicates the items that have the type of pronunciation or
punctuation is a specific utterance. In the following transcript output, the word
Good has a confidence of 1.0. This confidence
value indicates that Amazon Transcribe is 100 percent confident that the word uttered in this transcript is
'Good'. The confidence value for a [PII] tag is the
confidence that the speech it flagged for redaction is truly PII. In the following transcript
output, the confidence of 0.9999 indicates that Amazon Transcribe is
99.99 percent confident that the entity it redacted in the transcript is PII.
