REGIONAL FEATURES BASED SPEECH RECOGNITION METHOD AND SYSTEM

Disclosed is a regional-features-based speech recognition method, including learning speech features by region using speech data classified by region category, and recognizing input speech using an acoustic model and a language model generated through classification of a region category for the input speech and the learning. A user may use a dialect recognition service that is improved using learning based on artificial intelligence (AI) and enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), ultra-reliable and low latency communications (URLLC), and massive machine-type communications (mMTC) techniques of 5G mobile communication.
