A METHOD FOR TRAINING A SPEECH RECOGNITION SYSTEM AND AN APPARATUS FOR PRACTISING THE METHOD, IN PARTICULAR, A PORTABLE TELEPHONE APPARATUS

摘要

For training a speech recognition to a multi-item repertoire, the following steps are executed: a speech item is presented by a user person, and the distinctivity thereof in the repertoire is asserted. Under control of a distinctivity found the speech item is inserted into the repertoire. These steps are repeated until reaching repertoire sufficiency. In particular, the asserting determines a likeness among the actually presented speech item and all items already in the repertoire, wherein undue likeness with one particular stored item creates a contingency procedure. This implies offering to the user a choice between ignoring the actually presented speech item and alternatively inserting the actually presented speech item at a price of deleting the particular stored item.
