1. A method of substantially eliminating an error in speech recognition, comprising the steps of:
- a) modifying a response time for an entry having repetitive voice elements in a predetermined dictionary;
b) inputting voice data;
c) performing word spotting for matching a portion of the voice data with the entry of the predetermined dictionary so as to determine a similarity degree; and
d) delaying to output a similarity degree upon detecting the repeated voice elements, wherein said word spotting substantially eliminating an erroneous additional detection of the repeated voice elements.

Abstract
A method and a system substantially eliminates an erroneous voice recognition of repetitive elements in word spotting. One preferred embodiment according to the current invention eliminates erroneous voice recognition of repetitive elements by selectively prolonging a response time of words containing repetitive elements. In order to substantially eliminate the errors, in another preferred embodiment according to the current invention, words containing repetitive elements are marked by a silent key word.

6. A system for substantially eliminating an error in speech recognition, comprising:
-
a standard dictionary having a prolonged response time for an entry having repeated voice elements in a predetermined dictionary; an input unit for inputting voice data; and an extraction characteristic unit connected to said standard dictionary for performing word spotting for matching a portion of the voice data with the entry of the predetermined dictionary and outputting a similarity degree, wherein upon detecting the repeated voice elements, said word spotting substantially eliminating an erroneous additional detection of the repeated voice elements based upon the prolonged response time prior to outputting the similarity degree. - View Dependent Claims (7)
