A method of improving pattern recognition accuracy is provided that uses a mechanism for locating a pattern within an input signal, such as provided by a telephone network. This operation is hard because of the variability of the signal that is likely to be received by the pattern recogniser. It will receive a large range of signal amplitudes, possibly embedded in a variety of background noises, and is required to produce its best hypothesis of the patterns in this signal. This invention concerns the identification of the location of the patterns within the input signal, which in some aspects uses feedback from the following pattern matcher, and in other aspects uses a pattern distance to noise distance ratio to determine the pattern identification. Other aspects are also described. It is important to accurately locate the pattern to be recognised as errors in the location of the pattern will result in errors in the recognition of the pattern. The patterns to be recognised are preferably human utterances.
