Abstract

In many speech-enabled applications, adaptation of speech recognition and language understanding tools for different users are employed. With such adaptation, identifying the particular user precedes applying the speech recognition and language understanding tools. According to at least one example embodiment, a method and corresponding apparatus of identifying a user includes comparing personal information data received from a user network device against personal information accessible by the server; and identifying a speech profile specific to the user based on the results of comparing the personal information data retrieved from the first user network device against the personal information accessible by the server. The identified speech profile is used in processing a speech of the user. Through use of the method or corresponding apparatus, a user can proceed directly to the use of the speech recognition or other applications and bypassing a login sequence.
