Abstract

See full text

A method is provided for improving pattern matching in a speech recognition system having a plurality of acoustic models (20). Similarity measures for acoustic feature vectors (54) are determined in groups that are then buffered into cache memory (59). To further reduce computational processing, the acoustic data may be partitioned amongst a plurality of processing nodes (66, 67, 68). In addition, a priori knowledge of the spoken order may be used to establish the access order (124) used to copy records from the main speech parameter table (120, 200) into a sub-table (130, 204). The sub-table is processed such that the entries are in contiguous memory locations (206) and sorted according to the processing order (208). The speech processing algorithm is then directed to operate upon the sub-table (210) which causes the processor to load the sub-table into high speed cache memory (104, 212).
