Abstract
The invention relates to a method of supporting the proof-reading of a text () obtained in particular by speech recognition from a speech signal (), of which at least one text component (Bto B) has a reliability level () for its correctness, which method comprises a control of the progression of the replay speed () of the part of the speech signal () belonging to the text component (Bto B) as a function of the reliability level () of the text component (Bto B). Faster replay of the reliable passages of a speech signal () shortens the working time required for proof-reading, while the slow replay of the unreliable passages raises the attention of the proof-reading user. An acoustic and/or visual () marking of the passage as a function of its reliability () is advantageous. The method according to the invention is particularly suitable for implementation within a speech recognition system.
