ABSTRACT:
In a speech recognition system for performing voice dialing, an inventive connected digit recognizer is employed to recognize a sequence of spoken digits. The inventive recognizer generates the maximum-likelihood digit sequence corresponding to the spoken sequence in accordance with the Viterbi algorithm. However, unlike a prior art connected digit recognizer, the inventive recognizer does not assume that a digit model in a sequence can be followed by any digit model with equal probability. Rather, the inventive recognizer takes into account, for each digit model being decided on, a conditional probability that that digit model would follow a given digit model preceding thereto.
