✦ Synopsis

in diction between training and task; the representation of variability in diction by storing repeated examples of each utterance separately, instead of using a simple statistical average; and the construction of an adaptive algorithm which updates its templates at appropriate moments. The results of empirical investigations with the adaptive algorithm show a very considerable improvement in performance. They argue that the development of speech recognisers has given the hardware undue attention, and that a rigorous attack on adaptive recognition, treated as a problem in control theory, would lead to a sophisticated interface to complement sophisticated hardware. The system the authors describe has been successfully used in an experimental voice-operated text-editing system (Morrison and Green, 1982). 15.3.28 (86259) Janet, E.
