Abstract
Inputs provided into user interface elements of an application are observed. Records are made of the inputs and the state(s) the application was in while the inputs were provided. For each state, a corresponding language model is trained based on the input(s) provided to the application while the application was in that state. When the application is next observed to be in a previously-observed state, a language model associated with the application's current state is applied to recognize speech input provided by a user and thereby to generate speech recognition output that is provided to the application. An application's state at a particular time may include the user interface element(s) that are displayed and/or in focus at that time, and is determined by an operating system hooking component embedded in the automatic speech recognition system.
