Abstract
Either or both of voice speaker identification or utterance classification such as by age, gender, accent, mood, and prosody characterize speech utterances in a system that performs automatic speech recognition (ASR) and natural language processing (NLP). The characterization conditions NLP, either through application to interpretation hypotheses or to specific grammar rules. The characterization also conditions language models of ASR. Conditioning may comprise enablement and may comprise reweighting of hypotheses.
