Abstract

Methods and arrangements for facilitating database access in speech recognition. A plurality of possible subsequences corresponding to a database entry are ascertained, a record of such subsequences and their correspondence to database entries is created, and either or both of the following are carried out: unique signatures are ascertained via determining whether a subsequence corresponding to a given database entry does not also correspond to at least one other database entry; and/or multiple occurrences of a given subsequence are found, with corresponding database entries being grouped into a confusion set.
