Abstract
Technologies for detecting an end of a sentence in automatic speech recognition are disclosed. An automatic speech recognition device may acquire speech data, and identify phonemes and words of the speech data. The automatic speech recognition device may perform a syntactic parse based on the recognized words, and determine an end of a sentence based on the syntactic parse. For example, if the syntactic parse indicates that a certain set of consecutive recognized words form a syntactically complete and correct sentence, the automatic speech recognition device may determine that there is an end of a sentence at the end of that set of words.
