Method and device for voice recognition
First Claim
1. Method for the recognition of words and pauses from a voice signal, wherein the consecutively spoken words (Wi) and pauses (Ti) are combined as to be appertaining to a word group as soon as one of the pauses (Ti) exceeds a limit value (TG), stored references (Rj) are allocated to the voice signal of the word group, and an indication of the result of the allocation is effected after the limit value (TG) has been exceeded, characterized in that parameters corresponding to the moments of the transitions between ranges with voice and non-voice are determined from the voice signal, and the limit value (TG) is changed in dependence on said parameters.

Abstract
Method and device for the recognition of words and pauses in a voice signal. The words (Wi) spoken in a row and pauses (Ti) are thereby combined as to be appertaining to a word group as soon as one of the pauses (Ti) exceeds a limit value (TG). Stored references (Rj) are allocated to the voice signal of the word group, and an indication of the result of the allocation is effected after the limit value (TG) has been exceeded. To this end, parameters corresponding to the moments of the transitions between ranges with voice and non-voice are determined from the voice signal, and the limit value (TG) is then changed in dependence on said parameters.

1. Method for the recognition of words and pauses from a voice signal, wherein
the consecutively spoken words (Wi) and pauses (Ti) are combined as to be appertaining to a word group as soon as one of the pauses (Ti) exceeds a limit value (TG), stored references (Rj) are allocated to the voice signal of the word group, and an indication of the result of the allocation is effected after the limit value (TG) has been exceeded, characterized in that parameters corresponding to the moments of the transitions between ranges with voice and non-voice are determined from the voice signal, and the limit value (TG) is changed in dependence on said parameters.

10. Device for the recognition of words and pauses from a voice signal, wherein the words are combined as to be appertaining to a word group as soon as one of the pauses exceeds a limit value (TG), comprising a pattern comparator (120) provided for allocating at least one of the references stored in a memory unit (130) to the voice signal of the word group and the pattern comparator (120) being connectable with an input unit (200) for inputting the voice signal, and an output unit (300) for indicating the result of the allocation,
characterized in that a control means (140) is provided to change the limit value (TG) in dependence on parameters of the voice signal, wherein the parameters correspond to the moments of the transitions between ranges with voice and non-voice.
