Abstract
A speech recognition process may perform the following operations: performing a preliminary recognition process on first audio to identify candidates for the first audio; generating first templates corresponding to the first audio, where each first template includes a number of elements; selecting second templates corresponding to the candidates, where the second templates represent second audio, and where each second template includes elements that correspond to the elements in the first templates; comparing the first templates to the second templates, where comparing comprises includes similarity metrics between the first templates and corresponding second templates; applying weights to the similarity metrics to produce weighted similarity metrics, where the weights are associated with corresponding second templates; and using the weighted similarity metrics to determine whether the first audio corresponds to the second audio.
