Speech recognition driven system with selectable speech models
First Claim
1. A method for providing a speech model based on a biometric signature in a speech recognition driven system, comprising the steps of:
- receiving a biometric signature from a user of the system;
selecting a speech model based on the received biometric signature;
utilizing the selected speech model to determine whether a voice input provided by the user corresponds to a speech selectable task that is recognized by the speech recognition driven system; and
performing a speech selectable task when the voice input provided by the user corresponds to a speech selectable task.

Abstract
A speech recognition driven system provides a speech model based on a biometric signature. Initially, the speech recognition driven system receives a biometric signature from a user of the system. Based upon the received biometric signature, the system selects a speech model. The selected speech model is utilized to determine whether a voice input provided by the user corresponds to a speech selectable task that is recognized by the speech recognition driven system. When the voice input provided by the user corresponds to the speech selectable task, the system causes the speech selectable task to be performed. In one embodiment, the biometric signature is an image of the user'"'"'s face. When face recognition technology is implemented, the image of the user'"'"'s face is utilized to select a speech model.
