Abstract
A method of entering information into a mobile device includes receiving a multi-word speech input from a user, performing speech recognition on the speech input to obtain a multi-word speech recognition result, and sequentially displaying, in a display, words in the speech recognition result for user confirmation or correction, by adding one word at a time to the display. A next word is only displayed after user confirmation or correct has been received for a previously displayed word that is immediately preceding the next word in the speech recognition result. The method also includes calculating a hypothesis lattice indicative of a plurality of speech recognition hypotheses based on the speech input and, prior to finishing calculating the hypothesis lattice and while continuing to calculate the hypothesis lattice, calculating a preliminary hypothesis lattice indicative of only partial speech recognition hypotheses based on the speech input and outputting the preliminary hypotheses lattice.
