ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for recognizing speech includes a memory for storing data representing a reference pattern composed of the combination of a word reference pattern and a silence pattern, and a calculator for calculating the differences between data representing the reference pattern and data representing input speech. The use of such a silence pattern in the reference pattern permits a word such as "other" to be distinguished from the word "mother".
