Abstract

A speech recognition system used in a workflow receives and analyzes speech input to recognize and accept a user's response to a task. Under certain conditions, a user's response might be expected. In these situations, the expected response may modify the behavior of the speech recognition system to improve recognition accuracy. For example, if the hypothesis of a user's response matches the expected response then there is a high probability that the user's response was recognized correctly. An expected response may include expected words and wildcard words. Wildcard words represent any recognized word in a user's response. By including wildcard words in the expected response, the speech recognition system may make modifications based on a wide range of user responses.
