First Claim
Patent Images
1. A speech recognition support method applied to a system to retrieve a map in response to a user'"'"'s input speech, comprising the steps of:
- assigning a recognition result to the user'"'"'s input speech;
calculating, if the recognition result of the user'"'"'s input speech represents a point on the map, a distance between the point and a base point on the map;
deciding whether the distance is above a threshold; and
outputting, if the distance is above the threshold, an inquiry to confirm whether the recognition result is correct.

Abstract
A speech recognition support method in a system to retrieve a map in response to a user'"'"'s input speech. The user'"'"'s speech is recognized and a recognition result is obtained. If the recognition result represents a point on the map, a distance between the point and a base point on the map is calculated. The distance is decided to be above a threshold or not. If the distance is above the threshold, an inquiry to confirm whether the recognition result is correct is output to the user.

4. A speech recognition support apparatus for retrieving a map in response to a user'"'"'s input speech, comprising:
-
a speech recognition unit configured to assign a recognition result to the user'"'"'s input speech; a distance decision unit configured to calculate a distance between a point of the recognition result and a base point on the map if the recognition result represents a point on the map, and to decide whether the distance is above a threshold; and a response generation unit configured to generate an inquiry to confirm whether the recognition result is correct if the distance is above the threshold.

5. A computer readable memory containing computer readable instructions in a system to retrieve a map in response to a user'"'"'s input speech, comprising:
-
instruction means for causing a computer to assign a recognition result to the user'"'"'s input speech; instruction means for causing a computer to calculate, if the recognition result of the user'"'"'s input speech represents a point on the map, a distance between the point and a base point on the map; instruction means for causing a computer to decide whether the distance is above a threshold; and instruction means for causing a computer to output, if the distance is above the threshold, an inquiry to confirm whether the recognition result is correct.
