ABSTRACT:
A word tagging and editing system for speech recognition receives recognized speech text from a speech recognition engine, and creates tagging information that follows the speech text as it is received by a word processing program or other program. The body of text to be edited in connection with the word processing program may be selected and cut and pasted and otherwise manipulated, and the tags follow the speech text. A word may be selected by a user, and the tag information used to point to a sound bite within the audio data file created initially by the speech recognition engine. The sound bite may be replayed to the user through a speaker. The practical results include that the user may confirm the correctness of a particular recognized word, in real time whilst editing text in the word processor. If the recognition is manually corrected, the correction information may be supplied to the engine for use in updating a user profile for the user who dictated the audio that was recognized. Particular tagging approaches are employed depending on the particular word processor being used.
