Abstract

A speech recognition system and method thereof are provided. The speech recognition system connects to an external general-purpose speech recognition system, and including a storage unit and a processing unit. The storage unit stores a specific application speech recognition module, a comparison module and an enhancement module. The specific application speech recognition module converts a speech signal into a first phonetic text. The general-purpose speech recognition system converts the speech signal into a written text. The comparison module receives the first phonetic text and the written text, converts the written text into a second phonetic text, and aligns the second phonetic text with the first phonetic text according to similarity of pronunciation to output a phonetic text alignment result. The enhancement module receives the phonetic text alignment result, and constructs with the written text and the first phonetic text after path weighting to form an outputting recognized text.
