Abstract

In the present invention, a speech processing apparatus is disclosed. In one embodiment, the apparatus is used to activate a telephone. The speech activated phone stores speech patterns in accordance with a modified clipped autocorrelation function algorithm. The comparison of the speech pattern of the spoken word to the speech pattern of the stored word to obtain a speech pattern match is performed in accordance with a modified dynamic time warping algorithm, wherein a constant width window is maintained. Further, an adaptive pruning method is employed to speed up the processing of the DTW algorithms operation. A plurality of spoken words, the telephone number and the alphanumeric word associated with each spoken word are stored in the telephone. The telephone automatically dials the telephone number in response to inputted spoken word, matching the stored spoken word. In addtion, the telephone number and alphanumeric text for the matched spoken word is displayed.
