  • Patent number: 8706485
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to method and a communication device (100) for associating a contact record pertaining to a remote speaker (220) with a mnemonic image (191) based on attributes of the speaker (220). The method comprises receiving voice data of the speaker (220); in a communication session with a source device (200). A source determination representing the speaker (220) is registered, and then the received voice data is analyzed so that voice data characteristics can be extracted. Based on these voice data characteristics a mnemonic image (191) can be selected, and associated to a contact record in which the source determination is stored. The mnemonic image (191) may be selected among images previously stored in the device, or derived through editing of such images.
