本文描述了一种新的语音接口功能，称为语音补全，它通过完成(填充)用户发出的短语片段来帮助用户输入单词或短语。尽管补全的概念在基于文本的界面中被广泛使用，但还没有关于补全有效地应用于语音的报道。通过使用填充的停顿，我们使用户能够毫不费力地调用语音完成功能，该功能帮助用户回忆不确定的短语，并在输入短语较长时节省人力。当用户在短语中通过延长元音(发出充满停顿)而犹豫时，我们的系统立即显示其开头在听觉上与所说的片段相似的补全候选，以便用户可以选择正确的。在我们用一个包括填充停顿检测器和能够列出候选的语音识别器的系统进行的实验中，语音补全的有效性得到了证实。
This paper describes a novel speech interface function, called speech completion, that helps a user enter a word or phrase by completing (filling in the rest of) a phrase fragment uttered by the user. Although the concept of completion is widely used in text-based interfaces, there have been no reports of completion being effectively applied to speech. By using a filled pause, we enable a user to effortlessly invoke the speech-completion function which helps the user recall uncertain phrases and saves labor when the input phrase is long. When a user hesitates by lengthening a vowel (a filled pause is uttered) during a phrase, our system immediately displays completion candidates whose beginnings acoustically resemble the uttered fragment so that the user can select the correct one. In our experiments with a system that included a filled-pause detector and a speech recognizer capable of listing candidates, the effectiveness of speech completion was confirmed.
