Abstract

This speech recognizer concatenates a string of reference isolated-words for comparison with the unknown string of connected-words. The invention includes a level-building (LB) algorithm, 'level' implying a location in a sequence of words. A constrained endpoint dynamic-time-warp algorithm, in which the slope of the warping function is restricted between 1/2 and 2, is used to find the best alignment between an unknown continuous-word test pattern, and a concatenated sequence of L reference patterns. Properties of the LB algorithm include: modification of the references; back-track decision logic; heuristic selection of multiple candidates, and syntax constraints. As a result, the processing required is less than two-level dynamic-program-matching and sampling algorithms.
