A weight coefficient generation device, a speech recognition device, a navigation system, a vehicle, a vehicle coefficient generation method, and a weight coefficient generation program are provided for the purpose of improving a speech recognition performance of place names. In order to address the above purpose, an address database 12 has address information data items including country names, city names, street names, and house numbers, and manages the address information having a tree structure indicating hierarchical relationships between the place names from wide area to a narrow area. Each of the place names stored in the address database 12 is taken as a speech recognition candidate. A weight coefficient calculation unit 11 of a weight coefficient generation device 10 calculates a weight coefficient of the likelihood of the aforementioned recognition candidate based on the number of the street names belonging to the lower hierarchy below the city names. |
