Abstract

A speech recognition apparatus that enables efficient multimodal input in setting a plurality of items by one utterance is provided. An input unit inputs a setting instruction by speech. A speech interpretation unit recognizes and interprets the contents of the setting instruction by speech to generate first structured data containing candidates of the interpretation result. An instruction input detecting unit detects a setting instruction input by a user. An instruction input interpretation unit interprets the contents of the setting instruction input to generate second structured data. A selection unit selects one of the interpretation candidates contained in the first structured data based on the second structured data.
