Abstract

A real-time speech processing development system has a control subsystem (CS) and a recognition subsystem (RS) interconnected by a CS/RS interface. The control subsystem includes a control processor, an operator interface, a user interface, and a control program module for loading any one of a plurality of control programs which employ speech recognition processes. The recognition system RS includes a master processor, speech signal processor, and template matching processors all interconnected on a common bus which communicates with the control subsystem through the mediation of the CS/RS interface. The two-part configuration allows the control subsystem to be accessed by the operator for non-real-time system functions, and the recognition subsystem to be accessed by the user for real-time speech processing functions. An embodiment of a speaker verification system includes template enrollment, template training, recognition by template-concatenation and time alignment, silence and filler template generation, and speaker monitoring modes.
