20. A speech recognition method comprising:
-
detecting a gesture of at least one part of a human body; receiving a speech input signal; and recognizing the speech input signal in the context of a recognition set, the recognizing resulting in a first recognition result; weighting the first recognition result according to a function associated with the gesture; and determining a second recognition result based on the weighting.
