ABSTRACT:
A method for matching an input pattern with a number of stored reference patterns using a dynamic programming matching technique is described. The reference patterns of a reference signal which are at the end of a dynamic programming path for a current input pattern are listed in an active list. The dynamic programming paths are propagated by processing the reference patterns on the active list, and a new active list is generated for the succeeding input pattern. The amount of processing required for each pattern on the active list is reduced by using a pointer which identifies the reference pattern which is the earliest in the sequence of patterns of the current reference signal listed on the new active list during the processing of a preceding dynamic programming path. In a second aspect, a speech recognition interface is used as a control system for a telephony system.
