Speech recognition apparatus, navigation apparatus including a speech recognition apparatus, and speech recognition method
First Claim
1. A speech recognition apparatus comprising:
- a speech recognition dictionary including comparison data for use in recognition of a voice input;
a speech recognition unit adapted to calculate a matching degree by comparing voice input data generated based on the voice input with the comparison data, recognize the voice input based on the matching degree, and produce the recognition result of the voice input; and
one or more addition data which are associated with one or more particular comparison data for use in weighting the matching degree.

Abstract
A speech recognition apparatus includes a speech recognition dictionary and a speech recognition unit. The speech recognition dictionary includes comparison data used to recognize a voice input. The speech recognition unit is adapted to calculate the score for each comparison data by comparing voice input data generated based on the voice input with each comparison data, recognize the voice input based on the score, and produce the recognition result of the voice input. The speech recognition apparatus further includes data indicating score weights associated with particular comparison data, used to weight the scores calculated for the particular comparison data. After the score is calculated for each comparison data, the score weights are added to the scores of the particular comparison data, and the voice input is recognized based on total scores including the added score weights.

17. A method for speech recognition comprising:
-
calculating the matching degree of each of a plurality of comparison data used to recognize voice inputs with respect to a voice input;
adding addition data to the calculated matching degree for one or more particular comparison data associated with addition data to weight the matching degree; and
recognizing the voice input based on the new matching degrees obtained as a result of the addition of the addition data. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
