ABSTRACT:
Speaker recognition is attempted on input speech signals concurrently with provision of input speech signals to a speech recognition system. If a speaker is recognized, a speaker dependent model which has been trained on an enrolled speaker is supplied to the speech recognition system. If not recognized, then a speaker-independent recognition model is used or, alternatively, the new speaker is enrolled. Other speaker specific information such as a special language model, grammar, vocabulary, a dictionary, a list of names, a language and speaker dependent preferences can also be provided to improve the speech recognition function or even configure or customize the speech recognition system or the response of any system such as a computer or network controlled in response thereto. A consistency check in the form of a decision tree is preferably provided to accelerate the speaker recognition process and increase the accuracy thereof. Further training of a model and/or enrollment of additional speakers may be initiated upon completion of speaker recognition and/or adaptively upon each speaker utterance.
