Abstract
An object of the invention is to conveniently increase standard patterns registered in a voice recognition device to efficiently extend the amount of words that can be voice-recognized.
New standard patterns are generated by modifying a part of an existing standard pattern. A pattern matching unit 16 of a modifying-part specifying unit 14 performs pattern matching process to specify a part to be modified in the existing standard pattern of a usage source. A standard pattern generating unit 18 generates the new standard patterns by cutting or deleting voice data of the modifying part of the usage-source standard pattern, substituting the voice data of the modifying part of the usage-source standard pattern for another voice data, or combining the voice data of the modifying part of the usage-source standard pattern with another voice data. A standard pattern database update unit 20 adds the new standard patterns to a standard pattern database 24.

14. A voice edition apparatus that uses existing voice data to generate another voice data, comprising:
-
a modifying-part specifying unit that performs a matching process between usage-source voice data among the existing voice data and modifying-part voice data for specifying a modifying part of the usage-source voice data, and specifies at least a part of the usage-source voice data as the modifying part; and a voice data generating unit that uses the modifying-part voice data specified by the modifying-part specifying unit to generate another voice data. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)
