摘要: There are disclosed an apparatus for calculating a posteriori probabilities of phoneme symbols and speech recognition using the symbols. A feature extracting section extracts parameters from signal uttered sentence composed inputted character series, calculates probability symbol signal, by bidirectional recurrent neural network. The network includes (a) input layer receiving extracted means plurality hypothetical series signals, (b) intermediate at least one having units, (c) output outputting each symbol. first neuron group forward module, backward module.
