Abstract
A voice recognition apparatus includes an extraction unit extracting a feature amount from a voice signal, a word dictionary storing a plurality of recognition words; a reject word generation unit storing reject words in the word dictionary in association with the recognition words and a collation unit calculating a degree of similarity between the voice signal and each of the recognition words and reject words stored in the word dictionary by using the feature amount extracted by the extraction unit, determining whether or not a word having a high calculated degree of similarity corresponds to a reject word, when the word is determined as the reject word, excluding the recognition word stored in the word dictionary in association with the reject word from a result of recognition, and outputting a recognition word having a high calculated degree of similarity as a result of recognition.
