Abstract

The present invention relates to an error-tolerant language understanding, system and method. The system and the method is using example sentences to provide the clues for detecting and recovering errors. The procedure of detection and recovery is guided by a probabilistic scoring function which integrated the scores from the speech recognizer, concept parser, the scores of concept-bigram and edit operations, such as deleting, inserting and substituting concepts. Meanwhile, the score of edit operations refers the confidence measure achieving more precise detection and recovery of the speech recognition errors. That said, a concept with lower confidence measure tends to be deleted or substituted, while a concept with higher one tends to be retained.
