Assigning meanings to utterances in a speech recognition system
First Claim
1. A machine implemented method comprising:
- determining a set of possible operating contexts of a data processing system;
generating for each possible operating context in the set of possible operating contexts a language model for use in recognizing a spoken set of words received through an audio input.

Abstract
Assigning meanings to spoken utterances in a speech recognition system. A plurality of speech rules is generated, each of the speech rules comprising a language model and an expression associated with the language model. At one interval (e.g. upon the detection of speech in the system), a current language model is generated from each language model in the speech rules for use by a recognizer. When a sequence of words is received from the recognizer, a set of speech rules which match the sequence of words received from the recognizer is determined. Each expression associated with the language model in each of the set of speech rules is evaluated, and actions are performed in the system according to the expressions associated with each language model in the set of speech rules.
