Summary:Described is a technology in which information retrieval (IR) techniques are used in a speech recognition (ASR) system. Acoustic units (e.g., phones, syllables, multi-phone units, words and/or phrases) are decoded, and features found from those acoustic units. The features are then used with IR techniques (e.g., TF-IDF based retrieval) to obtain a target output (a word or words). Also described is the use of IR techniques to provide a full large vocabulary continuous speech (LVCSR) recognizer
