APPARATUS AND METHODS USING A PATTERN MATCHING SPEECH RECOGNITION ENGINE TO TRAIN A NATURAL LANGUAGE SPEECH RECOGNITION ENGINE

摘要

The technology of the present application provides a speech recognition system with at least two different speech recognition engines or a single engine speech recognition engine with at least two different modes of operation. The first speech recognition being used to match audio to text, which text may be words or phrases. The matched audio and text is used by a training module to train a user profile for a natural language speech recognition engine, which is at least one of the two different speech recognition engines or modes. An evaluation module evaluates when the user profile is sufficiently trained to convert the speech recognition engine from the first speech recognition engine or mode to the natural language speech recognition or mode.
