Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus are provided for performing prosody based endpoint detection of speech in a speech recognition system. Input speech represents an utterance, which has an intonation pattern. An end-of-utterance condition is identified based on prosodic parameters of the utterance, such as the intonation pattern and the duration of the final syllable of the utterance, as well as non-prosodic parameters, such as the log energy of the speech.
