Abstract
A speech sample is evaluated using a computer. Training data that include samples of speech are received and stored along with identification of speech elements to which portions of the training data are related. A speech sample is received and speech recognition is performed on the speech sample to produce recognition results. Finally, the recognition results are evaluated in view of the training data and the identification of the speech elements to which the portions of the training data are related. The technique may be used to perform tasks such as speech recognition, speaker identification, and language identification.
