Humans recognize speech not just by sounds or words, but their meaning. Unfortunately, most speech recognizers on the market employ statistical algorithms that do not allow meaning to play any part in the recognition process. Semantics is a valuable addition to current speech recognition methods, because it can not only improve the accuracy of recognition, but enable supporting applications, like expert systems, to improve document quality. Another aspect of semantic recognition is automatic proofing. A semantic speech recognizer can validate whether a sentence is in the knowledge domain of the author.
