Recognition of spellings over the telephone is inherently a difficult task and achieving very low error rates, using automatic speech recognition, is difficult. Augmenting speech input with input from the telephone keypad can reduce the error rate significantly. A variety of schemes for combining the keypad and speech input are presented. Experiments on a name entry task show that spellings can be recognized nearly perfectly using combined keypad and speech input, especially when a directory lookup is possible.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/experiments-in-keypad-aided-spelling-recognition/}, pages = {I-873}, }
