Abstract
Inputted voice signals are analyzed in units of syllables. Each syllable is compared with standard syllables preregistered in a memory and thereby recognized but corrections may be made on erroneous recognitions by referencing a dictionary or entering a command. Each standard pattern is associated with phonological information on the neighborhood in a voice signal from where it was extracted and may be updated by another pattern having the same phonological information. Temporal sequences of correct and erroneous recognitions of individual syllables as well as whole syllables are stored and referenced in determining whether a standard pattern should be updated. A maximum pattern number may be set for each syllable.
