Abstract

Features are disclosed for processing user utterances and applying user-supplied corrections to future user utterances. If a user utterance is determined to relate to a speech processing error that occurred when processing a previous utterance, information about the error or a correction thereto may be stored. Such information may be referred to as correction information. Illustratively, the correction information may be stored in a skip list. Subsequent utterances may be processed based at least partly on the correction information. For example, speech processing results generated from processing subsequent utterances that include a term associated with the error may be removed or re-scored in order to reduce or prevent the chance that an error will be repeated.
