Patent number: 10418028Abstract: Technologies for detecting an end of a sentence in automatic speech recognition are disclosed. An automatic speech recognition device may acquire speech data, and identify phonemes and words of the speech data. The automatic speech recognition device may perform a syntactic parse based on the recognized words, and determine an end of a sentence based on the syntactic parse. For example, if the syntactic parse indicates that a certain set of consecutive recognized words form a syntactically complete and correct sentence, the automatic speech recognition device may determine that there is an end of a sentence at the end of that set of words.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2017Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Oren Shamir, Oren Pereg, Moshe Wasserblat, Jonathan Mamou, Michel Assayag

Patent number: 10338033Abstract: An ultrasonic material-evaluation or classification method using spectral and envelope-statistics variables from backscattered ultrasound echo signals using an adaptive-bandwidth and combined with global variables. This classification method can be applied to any organ or tissue among biological materials and any non-biological material that produces backscattered signals as a result of microscopic internal in homogeneities such as a crystalline structure.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2018Date of Patent: July 2, 2019Assignee: Riverside Research InstituteInventors: Ernest J.

Patent number: 10242670Abstract: A system and method for syntactic re-ranking of possible transcriptions generated by automatic speech recognition are disclosed. A computer system accesses acoustic data for a recorded spoken language and generates a plurality of potential transcriptions for the acoustic data. The computer system scores the plurality of potential transcriptions to create an initial likelihood score for the plurality of potential transcriptions. For a particular potential transcription in the plurality of transcriptions, the computer system generates a syntactical likelihood score. The computer system creates an adjusted score for the particular potential transcription by combining the initial likelihood score and the syntactic likelihood score for the particular potential transcription.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2016Date of Patent: March 26, 2019Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Oren Pereg, Moshe Wasserblat, Jonathan Mamou, Michel Assayag

Patent number: 9330661Abstract: Techniques disclosed herein include systems and methods for voice-enabled searching. Techniques include a co-occurrence based approach to improve accuracy of the 1-best hypothesis for non-phrase voice queries, as well as for phrased voice queries. A co-occurrence model is used in addition to a statistical natural language model and acoustic model to recognize spoken queries, such as spoken queries for searching a search engine. Given an utterance and an associated list of automated speech recognition n-best hypotheses, the system rescores the different hypotheses using co-occurrence information. For each hypothesis, the system estimates a frequency of co-occurrence within web documents. Combined scores from a speech recognizer and a co-occurrence engine can be combined to select a best hypothesis with a lower word error rate.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2014Date of Patent: May 3, 2016Assignee: Nuance Communications, Inc.Inventors: Jonathan Mamou, Abhinav Sethy, Bhuvana Ramabhadran, Ron Hoory, Paul Joseph Vozila, Nathan Bodenstab
