Techniques and technologies for diagnosing speech recognition errors are described. In an example implementation, a system for diagnosing speech recognition errors may include an error detection module configured to determine that a speech recognition result is least partially erroneous, and a recognition error diagnostics module. The recognition error diagnostics module may be configured to (a) perform a first error analysis of the at least partially erroneous speech recognition result to provide a first error analysis result; (b) perform a second error analysis of the at least partially erroneous speech recognition result to provide a second error analysis result; and (c) determine at least one category of recognition error associated with the at least partially erroneous speech recognition result based on a combination of the first error analysis result and the second error analysis result.

Speech recognition error diagnosis

Architecture for correcting incorrect recognition results in an Asian language speech recognition system. A spelling mode can be launched in response to receiving speech input, the spelling mode for correcting incorrect spelling of the recognition results or generating new words. Correction can be obtained using speech and/or manual selection and entry. The architecture facilitates correction in a single pass, rather than multiples times as in conventional systems. Words corrected using the spelling mode are corrected as a unit and treated as a word. The spelling mode applies to languages of at least the Asian continent, such as Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and/or other Asian languages such as Japanese.

Recognition architecture for generating Asian characters

The language of origin of a word is determined by analyzing non-uniform letter sequence portions of the word.
