Abstract
According to an embodiment, a pattern recognition device recognizes a pattern of an input signal by converting the input signal to a feature vector and matching the feature vector with a recognition dictionary. The recognition dictionary includes a dictionary subspace basis vector for expressing a dictionary subspace which is a subspace of a space of the feature vector, and a plurality of probability parameters for converting similarity calculated from the feature vector and the dictionary subspace into likelihood. The device includes a recognition unit configured to calculate the similarity using a quadratic polynomial of a value of an inner product of the feature vector and the dictionary subspace basis vector, and calculate the likelihood using the similarity and an exponential function of a linear sum of the probability parameters. The recognition dictionary is trained by using an expectation maximization method using a constraint condition between the probability parameters.
