Abstract
According to an embodiment, a speech recognition apparatus includes a calculation unit that calculates, based on a speech signal, a score vector sequence including score vectors including an acoustic score for each of input symbols, a search unit that generates an input symbol string by searching for a path of the input symbol tracing the acoustic score having a high likelihood in the score vector sequence and that generates an output symbol representing a recognition result of the speech signal based on a recognition target symbol representing linguistic information as a recognition target among the input symbols, an additional symbol acquisition unit that obtains an additional symbol representing paralinguistic information and/or non-linguistic information from among the input symbols included in a range corresponding to the output symbol, and an output unit that outputs the output symbol and the obtained additional symbol in association with each other.
