Abstract

A method of automatic speech recognition. An utterance is received from a user in reply to a text message, via a microphone that converts the reply utterance into a speech signal. The speech signal is processed using at least one processor to extract acoustic data from the speech signal. An acoustic model is identified from a plurality of acoustic models to decode the acoustic data, and using a conversational context associated with the text message. The acoustic data is decoded using the identified acoustic model to produce a plurality of hypotheses for the reply utterance.
