Abstract

An apparatus for recognizing sound information includes a sound recognition unit for recognizing sound information. A knowledge base stores knowledge concerning a type of data represented by the sound information. A prediction unit predicts the type of data represented by sound information to be subsequently recognized by checking the knowledge stored in the knowledge base. The sound recognition unit recognizes sound information to be subsequently recognized based on a prediction result obtained by the prediction unit. With this arrangement, the recognition accuracy is enhanced.
