Description of the invention (1) Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Central Bureau of Standards of the Ministry of Economics The present invention is related to a continuous language recognition method. Recently, most of the automatic language recognition systems proposed are software-based, and their operation mode is to generate a series of hypotheses from input language signals. In speech recognition, the most common method is to use statistical methods to sample the speech waveform over a period of time, and generate a graph of the speech signal through sound spectrum processing, and divide it into a series of parameter vectors at the same time interval. These parameter vectors, as well as some phonetic styles and statistical language styles, determine the possibility that some of the input waveforms meet the special speech events after analysis to determine the most likely string. The key to the general technology mentioned above is the use of a stack decoder. With this method, the speech signal to be processed is first divided into a plurality of frames, which are represented by parameter vectors. A map vector is compared with many inference analyses that are consistent with the expected speech. According to the input parameters, the degree of correspondence between Dong and all possible inferences of the extended characters is arranged. The extended inferences are ranked according to their credibility and The possibilities are stored until the input is expected by the inferences. These stored inferences are arranged by their possibilities to form a stack corresponding to each frame. Each inference will be further expanded to provide other inferences for comparison with the next picture frame. When the analysis reaches the end of the discourse, there are many final inferences corresponding to the last picture frame, corresponding to the entire sentence to be identified. Each inference has its credibility. There are two factors that determine the probability that the input speech can be matched with a particular inference, that is, the credibility of the sound and the credibility of the contextual semantics, and the credibility of the sound. The degree is a hidden horse that compares the input speech vector with the expected inference. 2 The guilt scale of this paper applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297). ---------- i ------ Order ------ Taste * Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) 41964 ^ 4J-M4_3_ V. Description of the invention (2) Hidden Markov Model (HMM), and the contextual meaning is credible The degree is to compare the content of the input picture by the point of context and semantics, that is, use sentence construction or statistical rules to analyze the overall context of the language content, and combine these credibility by adding their probability. To get the credibility of each inference. The disadvantage of the proposed technology is that there are too many possible inferences that need to be compared with each picture frame, even if the number of inferences corresponding to any particular picture frame is deleted * Only the most likely options are left * this This technology still requires a lot of calculations. The object of the present invention is to provide an improved continuous speech recognition method. According to the first concept of the present invention, the continuous speech recognition method provided includes the steps of dividing a language signal into a plurality of numbers. Components: analyzing the syllable patterns related to the component to identify the possible syllables in the language signal: storing the resolved syllables in a syllable grid (lattice #; and analyzing the context of consecutive syllable combinations) Semantics. The present invention is a two-stage technique. In the first stage, a syllable lattice based on syllable recognition is developed, and then the context semantics are analyzed in the second stage.

"The use of a heapman decoder to store these inferences in the order of credibility, the context meaning of these inferences is correct Once all the combinations have been analyzed, the uppermost inference in the final stack has the highest credibility, that is, the inference is consistent with the sentence at the end. Preferably, in the method of this case, the syllable grid generation part uses the Tibetan Markov pattern (HMM) to compare each syllable with a plurality of pattern types. The pattern patterns and the consistency between each figure are probabilistic statistics. Using the Viterbi algorithm to analyze, we can find the most likely tense and consistency of the phonetic spectrum between the HMM and the input speech picture. This information will be placed in the syllable grid in principle at the end of the syllable, and then go back in time. The credibility of the contextual semantics of the syllable combination is analyzed, and the syllable lattice is advanced from the end to the beginning of the speech to be recognized. The advantage of the embodiment of the present invention is that the identification time with a fairly accurate result can be reduced. * The method of this embodiment is used for real-time identification applications.

The first preferred embodiment of the present invention is to identify a voice language signal, including four main steps: 1.

Select the vector parameters to define the sound spectrum of the frame signal. Characteristics 〇 Then use a recursive algorithm (recurs iveal go rithm) to compare the resulting speech vectors V1-V6 with the HMM syllable pattern, such as the Viterbi algorithm well known in the field. The second figure shows that this algorithm can be imagined as wearing The best path through these grids, where the vertical axis represents the type of HMM, and the horizontal axis represents the voice width F1-F6 with the voice to the child V1-V6.

The Viterbi algorithm calculates for each path the extension of all branches of the previous picture. Possibility, and the degree of coordination between the HMM and the most likely phonetic picture in the last picture. In Chinese, there are 1,600 syllable pronunciations, so there must be the same number of HMM syllable patterns. The input image is compared with all 1,600 syllable patterns by a grid-type dynamic program, so there are many possibilities for selecting syllables to be stored with each syllable selection, including an end time, which is defined as The time of the picture of the last pattern of the special syllable pattern * At the same time, there is an assumed start time, which is the time of the picture of the first pattern of the syllable pattern, and the identification and occurrence possibility of the syllable pattern. 1 _ ^ ---------.-- 1 ------ · ΐτ ------ Ψ1 (Please read the notes on the back before filling in Tt?

These syllable cells contain many syllables with different start times and end times. However, this speech contains multiple consecutive syllables, so we can use the syllable pronunciation tree lexicon, considering only that these are continuous in time. To analyze the syllable grid as shown in Figure 1C. • These syllable grids operate with stacked decoders, pushing the syllable grid back from time T = tf to T = te * using the syllable pronunciation thesaurus to derive the possibility Character selection, find all reasonable syllable sequences, and build a stack of inferences based on the hypothesis of the character order * These possible character selections will expand the inference, and then apply the language style to derive the ranking of each inference " 1D, the stack SK1-SK6 corresponds to each frame F1-F6. As far as a specific frame is concerned, the syllable order represented by each inference in the stack can be derived from the end of the discourse by the syllable case. This inference There are a number of syllables back expansion, use the following algorithm to match syllable lattice of syllables. 1. At the end of the utterance, at time 0 • Initialize a stack with an empty corollary, analyze all possible single syllables at the end of time, advance the syllable cell back and collect all syllables that reach the time and end node, After comparing each inference, the contextual and semantic credibility of the syllable is determined, and these inferences are put into the pile of man at the beginning of the syllable and arranged in the order of credibility. 2. The same procedure is performed for the time interval represented by the picture frame F6.
