Abstract
A pattern recognition system and method are provided. Aspects of the invention are particularly useful in combination with multi-state Hidden Markov Models. Pattern recognition is effected by processing Hidden Markov Model Blocks. This block-processing allows the processor to perform more operations upon data while such data is in cache memory. By so increasing cache locality, aspects of the invention provide significantly improved pattern recognition speed.
