Abstract
Recognition of speech with successive expansion of a reference vocabulary, can be used for automatic telephone dialing by voice input. Neural and conventional recognition methods are performed in parallel so that during training and configuration of the neural network, a conventional recognizer operating according to the dynamic programming principle has available newly added word patterns as references for immediate use in recognition. Upon completion of the training and configuration, the neural network takes over the recognition of the now expanded vocabulary.
