Abstract
A method is provided for deriving acoustic word representations for use in speech recognition. Initial word models are created, each formed of a sequence of acoustic sub-models. The acoustic sub-models from a plurality of word models are clustered, so as to group acoustically similar sub-models from different words, using, for example, the Kullback-Leibler information as a metric of similarity. Then each word is represented by cluster spelling representing the clusters into which its acoustic sub-models were placed by the clustering. Speech recognition is performed by comparing sequences of frames from speech to be recognized against sequences of acoustic models associated with the clusters of the cluster spelling of individual word models. The invention also provides a method for deriving a word representation which involves receiving a first set of frame sequences for a word, using dynamic programming to derive a corresponding initial sequence of probabilistic acoustic sub-models for the word independently of any previously derived acoustic model particular to the word, using dynamic programming to time align each of a second set of frame sequences for the word into a succession of new sub-sequences corresponding to the initial sequence of models, and using these new sub-sequences to calculate new probabilistic sub-models.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
