Y. Yamaguchi et al., A CONTINUOUS SPEECH RECOGNITION ALGORITHM UTILIZING ISLAND-DRIVEN A-ASTERISK SEARCH, IEICE transactions on fundamentals of electronics, communications and computer science, E76A(7), 1993, pp. 1184-1186
We propose a continuous speech recognition algorithm utilizing island-
driven A search. Conventional left-to-right A* search is probable to
lose the optimal solution from a finite stack if some obscurities appe
ar at the start of an input speech. Proposed island-driven A search p
roceeds searching forward and backward from the clearest part of an in
put speech, and thus can avoid to lose the optimal solution from a fin
ite stack.
