A voice recognition method and apparatus in which a scalar time-space field pattern lattice plane having an abscissa and an ordinate, with one being the time axis and the other the space axis, is obtained from a voice signal inputted as a recognition object, and a voice characteristic pattern based upon said time-space pattern is to be formed as a standard pattern or to be matched with a standard pattern to recognize a characteristic of the inputted voice. The scaler time-space field pattern is converted to extract a vector field pattern lattice corresponding to each lattice point of the scalar time-space field pattern lattice plane with each vector of the vector field pattern lattice having a quantity and an angular orientation value. The angular orientation values of the vector field pattern lattice are placed into one of N groups, each group corresponding to a range of vector angular orientation values, and a set of N two dimensional lattices are formed with each lattice corresponding to one of the vector angular orientation ranges and each point of the lattice having the quantity parameter of the corresponding point of the vector field pattern lattice. The patterns of the N two dimensional lattices have the voice characteristic information can be used as standards or to be matched with standard patterns. There can be blurring processing of the quantity values of the N two dimensional lattices to account for speech variations, such as between male and females, and the resulting lattices of the blurring processing used as standards or for matching.

Provided is a process for preparing tertiary butyl alcohol from isobutylene comprising reacting isobutylene or a hydrocarbon mixture containing isobutylene with an aqueous solution of an aliphatic carboxylic acid having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms in the presence of a solid, acidic ion-exchange resin as catalyst, to produce an aqueous reaction mixture of a major amount of tertiary butyl alcohol and a minor amount of the tertiary butyl ester of the carboxylic acid comprising the improved steps of:(1) subjecting said reaction mixture to distillation to remove unreacted isobutylene or hydrocarbon mixture therefrom;(2) supplying the treated reaction mixture of step (1) to a distillation column and passing water from the top to the bottom of said distillation column to remove said tertiary butyl ester of the carboxylic acid, wherein the amount of water used for removing the ester in step (2) is less than the sum of the amount of water used for converting said isobutylene into tertiary butyl alcohol and the amount of water contained in the tertiary butyl alcohol product;(3) contacting the distillate obtained from the ester removal column with a strongly acidic ion-exchange resin to hydrolyze said tertiary butyl ester in the distillate; and thereafter(4) returning said hydrolyzed liquid to the distillation column of step (2).
