Abstract
Input of dictated information in an information processing apparatus is controlled. Utterances of speech are detected and interpreted as words. Word by word confirmation of the interpreted words is detected, the confirmation being associated with an adjustable timeout period. The timeout period may be adjusted according to a number of different measures, including an average time needed for confirmation, an average success rate of dictation, by the pace of dictation as performed by a user, and by a user's history based on statistics from previously performed dictation procedures.
