A dynamic programming technique is provided for matching two sequences of phonemes both of which may be generated from text or speech. The scoring of the dynamic programming matching technique uses phoneme confusion scores, phoneme insertion scores and phoneme deletion scores which are obtained in advance in a training session and, if appropriate, confidence data generated by a recognition system if the sequences are generated from speech.
