Abstract

A method of speech recognition includes recognizing a first utterance, recognizing a second utterance having information that is related to the first utterance, and determining the most probable first and second utterances based on stored information about valid relationships between possible first and second utterances. The most probable second utterance contains information that is semantically related to the most probable first utterance. The recognized first utterance may be recognized continuously and the recognized second utterance may be recognized discretely. The determination of the most probable utterances may include creating a list of possible utterances that could be confused with a recognized utterance and rerecognition of a list of possible utterances against an utterance.
