Patent number: 7146111Abstract: An office information system having a device which provides a user with an operational message of the system is disclosed. In an embodiment of the office information system, a path record storage device stores a plurality of path records related to components of the system, each path record indicating a locating path needed to reach a location of a specific one of the components in the system when a failure related to the specific one of the components occurs. A failure location detecting device detects a location of a component in the system when a failure related to the component occurs. A reached location determining device reads a path record from the path record storage device when the location of the failure is detected, and determines a currently reached location in the system based on the path indicated by the path record.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2005Date of Patent: December 5, 2006Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventors: Jun-Ichiroh Fujimoto, Takashi Ariyoshi, Yoshinaga Kato, Hiroo Kitagawa, Yuichi Kojima, Lu Bin, Tetsuya Muroi, Tetsuya Sakayori, Yoshifumi Sakuramata, Junichi Takami

Patent number: 5212764Abstract: A noise eliminating apparatus includes a first feature extracting block for individually extracting a feature quantity X(f) (f =1, 2, . . . , n) of an input speech containing a noise for n channels (n is an integer), and a second feature extracting block for individually extracting a feature quantity N(f) of the noise for the n channels. The apparatus also includes a noise eliminating block for deriving a first noise eliminating variable k(f) and a second noise eliminating variable d(f) from the feature quantity X(f) of the input speech containing the noise provided for each of the n channels and the feature quantity N(f) of the noise provided for each of the n channels and for generating a feature quantity S(f) of a noise-eliminated input speech in accordance with the following formula:s(f)=X(f)-k(f).N(f)-d(f).Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 1992Date of Patent: May 18, 1993Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventor: Takashi Ariyoshi

Patent number: 5091947Abstract: A voice recognition apparatus includes a coefficient memory for storing at least one coefficient for correcting a degree of similarity which is obtained by either one of the speaker-independent recognition and the speaker-dependent recognition. The apparatus also includes a voice identification circuit for comparing the degrees of similarity of the candidates obtained by either one of the speaker-independent recognition and the speaker-dependent recognition with corrected degrees of similarity of the candidates related to the other recognition type which are obtained by performing a predetermined operation to the degree of similarity of each candidate which is supplied from the other recognition type. Then the voice identification decides one candidate having the highest degree of similarity to be an identification result.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 1990Date of Patent: February 25, 1992Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventors: Takashi Ariyoshi, Toshiki Kawamoto, Seigou Yasuda, Syoji Kuriki, Tomofumi Nakatani
