Abstract
A system and a method recognize speech including a sequence of words. A set of interpretations of the speech is generated using an acoustic model and a language model, and, for each interpretation, a score representing correctness of an interpretation in representing the sequence of words is determined to produce a set of scores. Next, the set of scores is updated based on a consistency of each interpretation with a constraint determined in response to receiving a word sequence constraint.
