Abstract
Method and system are provided for performing random confirmation in a speech system. When a speech recognition result is received with an associated confidence score indicating a level of confidence with respect to the speech recognition result, a confirmation decision is made in terms of whether a confirmation is to be carried out based on the confidence score. The confirmation decision may be made in a random confirmation mode. A confirmation may be performed when the confirmation decision is to carry out a confirmation on the speech recognition result.
