20100082343	SEQUENTIAL SPEECH RECOGNITION WITH TWO UNEQUAL ASR SYSTEMS - Sequential speech recognition using two unequal automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems may be provided. The system may provide two sets of vocabulary data. A determination may be made as to whether entries in one set of vocabulary data are likely to be confused with entries in the other set of vocabulary data. If confusion is likely, a decoy entry from one set of the vocabulary data may be placed in the other set of vocabulary data to ensure more efficient and accurate speech recognition processing may take place.	04-01-2010

20100049519	Recognizing the Numeric Language in Natural Spoken Dialogue - A system and a method are provided. A speech recognition processor receives unconstrained input speech and outputs a string of words. The speech recognition processor is based on a numeric language that represents a subset of a vocabulary. The subset includes a set of words identified as being for interpreting and understanding number strings. A numeric understanding processor contains classes of rules for converting the string of words into a sequence of digits. The speech recognition processor utilizes an acoustic model database. A validation database stores a set of valid sequences of digits. A string validation processor outputs validity information based on a comparison of a sequence of digits output by the numeric understanding processor with valid sequences of digits in the validation database.	02-25-2010
