摘要： In a conventional voice dialogue system, there is a case where it is difficult to perform a natural dialogue with the user. Therefore, we designed to perform speech recognition on the user's utterance, to control a dialogue with the user according to a scenario previously given, based on the speech recognition result to generate an answering sentence corresponding to the contents of the user's utterance as the occasion demands, and to perform voice synthesis processing to one sentence in the reproduced scenario or the generated answering sentence.

摘要： A speech recognizing device for efficient processing while keeping a high speech recognizing performance. A matching unit (14) computes the score of a word preliminarily selected by a word preliminary selection unit (13) and determines candidates of the speech recognition result on the basis of the score. A control unit (11) creates a word connection relation between the words of a word sequence, which is a candidate of the speech recognition result and stores them in a word connection information storage unit (16). A revaluation unit (15) corrects the word connection relation serially, and the control unit ( 11) defines the speech recognition result on the basis of the word connection relation corrected. A word connection relation managing unit (21) limits the time corresponding to the boundary of a word expressed by the word connection relation, and a word connection relation managing unit (22) limits the starting time of the word preliminarily selected by the word preliminary selection unit (13). The speech recognizing device can be applied to an interactive system which responds to the speech recognition result.

摘要： A speech recognition system for use in an automobile navigation system performs speech processing for recognizing speech or spoken words that correspond to a name of a place and a word designating a desired operation of the navigation system. When a new audio signal is input during speech recognition processing of a previously input audio signal, by holding a talk switch down for a fixed time period, the processing of the previously input audio signal is canceled, and the new audio signal immediately undergoes speech recognition processing without requiring any continuation of the processing of the previously input audio signal. The speech recognition system also determines whether an input audio signal has been reinputted within a predetermined amount of time from when the audio signal was previously inputted.

摘要： A map determination method and apparatus for calculating the coefficients to give a minimum evaluation function quickly and reliably where a map is expressed as the linear sum of a function g.sub.i (X) and a coefficient c.sub.i while a map for transforming a N-dimensional vector (x.sub.0, x.sub.1, x.sub.2, x.sub.3) to a M-dimensional vector y is being decided. The coefficient ci for the map is obtained by giving a learning sample and a teaching sample, obtaining an evaluation function and solving a simultaneous linear equation for which the partial differential is zero.

摘要： A speech recognition apparatus in which the accuracy in speech recognition is improved as the resource is prevented from increasing. Such a word which is probable as the result of the speech recognition is selected on the basis of an acoustic score and a linguistic score, while word selection is also performed on the basis of a measure different from the acoustic score, such as the number of phonemes being small, a part of speech being a pre-set one, inclusion in the past results of speech recognition or the linguistic score being not less than a pre-set value. The words so selected are subjected to matching processing.

摘要： A system and method for an automatic set-up of speech recognition engines may include a speech recognizer configured to perform speech recognition procedures to identify input speech data according to one or more operating parameters. A merit manager may be utilized to automatically calculate merit values corresponding to the foregoing recognition procedures. These merit values may incorporate recognition accuracy information, recognition speed information, and a user-specified weighting factor that shifts the relative effect of the recognition accuracy information and the recognition speed information on the merit values. The merit manager may then automatically perform a merit value optimization procedure to select operating parameters that correspond to an optimal one of the merit values.

摘要： The present invention provides a speech recognition apparatus having high speech recognition performance and capable of performing speech recognition in a highly efficient manner. A matching unit 14 calculates the scores of words selected by a preliminary word selector 13 and determines a candidate for a speech recognition result on the basis of the calculated scores. A control unit 11 produces word connection relationships among words included in a word series employed as a candidate for the speech recognition result and stores them into a word connection information storage unit 16. A reevaluation unit 15 corrects the word connection relationships one by one. On the basis of the corrected word connection relationships, the control unit 11 determines the speech recognition result. A word connection managing unit 21 limits times allowed for a boundary between words represented by the word connection relationships to be located thereat. A word connection managing unit 22 limits start times of words preliminarily selected by the preliminary word selector 13. The present invention can be applied to an interactive system that recognizes an input speech and responds to the speech recognition result.
