Abstract

A method and apparatus for command recognition using data-driven semantic inference includes recognizing a sequence of words received as the voice command. Data-driven semantic inference is then used with the recognized sequence of words to recognize the voice command. Thus, the command is identified on the basis of the semantics of words of the spoken command rather than the particular grammar of each of predetermined different ways the command could be worded.
