Abstract

Systems and methods for using neuromuscular information to improve speech recognition. The system includes a plurality of neuromuscular sensors, arranged on one or more wearable devices, wherein the plurality of neuromuscular sensors is configured to continuously record a plurality of neuromuscular signals from a user, at least one storage device configured to store one or more trained statistical models, and at least one computer processor programmed to provide as an input to the one or more trained statistical models, the plurality of neuromuscular signals or signals derived from the plurality of neuromuscular signals, determine based, at least in part, on an output of the one or more trained statistical models, at least one instruction for modifying an operation of a speech recognizer, and provide the at least one instruction to the speech recognizer.
