Abstract

A method for recognizing spoken words of a speech includes extracting feature vectors from a speech signal which corresponds to a spoken phrase, and segmenting and classifying the successive extracted feature vectors into syllable oriented word subunits by means of a stored supply of word subunits to form a set of hypotheses. The set of hypotheses is used to generate, by three dimensional time dynamic comparision, a set of word hypotheses by comparing the segmented and classified word subunits with standard pronunciations and pronunciation variants of a plurality of words stored in a reference pattern vocabulary. The generated set of word hypotheses are then subjected to syntactic analysis to determine the spoken phrase.
