System and method for effectively implementing a mandarin chinese speech recognition dictionary

摘要

The present invention comprises a system and method for effectively implementing a Mandarin Chinese speech recognition dictionary, and may include a recognizer configured to compare input speech data to phone strings from a vocabulary dictionary that is implemented according to an optimized Mandarin Chinese phone set. The optimized Mandarin Chinese phone set may efficiently be implemented by utilizing an allophone and phonemic variation technique. In addition, the foregoing vocabulary dictionary may be implemented by utilizing unified dictionary optimization techniques to provide robust and accurate speech recognition. Furthermore, the vocabulary dictionary may be implemented as an optimized dictionary to accurately recognize either Northern Mandarin Chinese speech or Southern Mandarin Chinese speech during the speech recognition procedure.
