Abstract

A speech recognition system is provided where a user may more efficiently and easily correct a recognition error resulting from speech recognition. The system compares multiple inputted words with multiple stored words and determines a most-competitive word candidate. The system selects one or more competitive words that have competitive probabilities close to the competitive probability of the most-competitive word candidate and displays the one or more competitive words adjacent to the most-competitive word candidate. The system selects an appropriate correction word from the one or more competitive words and replaces one of the most competitive word candidate with the correction word.
