ABSTRACT:
A method of recognizing speech input selectively creates and maintains grammar representations of the speech input in essentially real time. Speech input frames are received by a speech recognition system. Grammar representations are created for each speech frame and a probability score is derived for the representations indicating the probability of the accuracy of the representations to the speech input. Representations having a probability score below a predetermined threshold are not maintained. Those grammar representations having probability scores above the predetermined threshold are maintained. As more speech frames are received by the system, additional grammar representations are created and the probability scores are updated. When the entire speech input has been received, the chain of grammar representations having the highest probability score is identified as the speech input.
