Patent Images
1. A method of speech recognition comprising:
- receiving an original utterance of one or more words;
performing an original speech recognition upon the original utterance;
producing a user perceivable output representing one or more sequences of one or more words selected by the recognition as most likely corresponding to the utterance;
providing a user interface that allows a user to select to perform a re-utterance recognition upon a part of the original utterance corresponding to all or a selected part of the user perceivable output; and
responding to a user selection to perform a re-utterance recognition upon all or a part of the original utterance by;
treating a second utterance received in association with the selection as a re-utterance of the selected portion of the original utterance; and
performing speech recognition upon the re-utterance to select one or more sequences of one or more words considered to most likely match the re-utterance based on the scoring of the one or more words against both the re-utterance and the selected portion of the original utterance.
