Abstract
An apparatus, medium, and method recognizing speech. The method may include the calculating of scores indicating the degree of similarity between a characteristic of an input speech and characteristics of speech models based on the degree of similarity between the length of each phoneme included in an input speech and the length of phonemes included in each speech model, and determining a speech model with the highest score among the scores to be the corresponding recognized speech for the input speech. By doing so, the speech recognition rate may be greatly enhanced and when an input speech includes continuous identical phonemes the word error rate (WER) may be greatly reduced.
