1. A method for assisting voice-dialing comprising the steps of:

  • receiving voice input from a user representing a name corresponding to a desired telephone number;

    selecting stored names that most closely match the voice input;

    predicting a likelihood of the user calling different telephone numbers based on a model characterized by previous call information adjusted to reflect the user'"'"'s calling behavior over a time period by applying weights associated with the telephone numbers such that recent calling behavior is favored over previous calling behavior; and

    determining the desired telephone number according to the predicted likelihood of the user calling the telephone number corresponding to each selected name.
