  • analyzing speech input with an apparatus using at least one hardware-implemented processor to generate a hypothesis and a confidence factor associated with the hypothesis;

    comparing said confidence factor to an acceptance threshold for accepting or rejecting the hypothesis; and

    comparing the hypothesis to an expected response, and if the comparison is favorable, adjusting the acceptance threshold in order to affect the acceptance of the hypothesis.
