Speech recognition (in many contexts also known as automatic speech recognition, computer speech recognition or erroneously as voice recognition) is the process of converting a speech signal to a sequence of words in the form of digital data, by means of an algorithm implemented as a computer program. Speech recognition applications that have emerged over the last few years include voice dialing (e.g., "Call home"), call routing (e.g., "I would like to make a collect call"), simple data entry (e.g., entering a credit card number), preparation of structured documents (e.g., a radiology report), domotic appliance control and content-based spoken audio search (e.g. find a podcast where particular words were spoken).
