Patent number: 9471333Abstract: In an effort to customize or enhance software applications, configuration data is often used. Configuration settings that are editable by users need not to be limited to a simple flat entry that can be taken out of context anymore. The present invention allows for multiple-levels of configuration settings to interact with each other, so that a single configuration for a given context to be calculated dynamically. In the process, the user gains flexibility to specify more adequately a required change or customization while propagating the information with minimal effort and not requiring additional coding. Furthermore, to simplify a speaker's interactions for controlling an automated device, the addition of a superposed layer over graphic user interface may be used. The superposed layer may display coordinates that a speaker may use to navigate the graphic user interface, for example to associate a location with a keyword or a coordinate.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2007Date of Patent: October 18, 2016Assignee: Conceptual Speech, LlcInventor: Philippe Roy

Publication number: 20110288855Abstract: A new approach to speech recognition that reacts to concepts conveyed through speech, which shifts the balance of power in speech recognition from straight sound recognition and statistical models to a more powerful and complete approach determining and addressing conveyed concepts. A probabilistically unbiased multi-phoneme recognition process is employed, followed by a phoneme stream analysis process that builds the list of candidate words derived from recognized phonemes, followed by a permutation analysis process that produces sequences of candidate words with high potential of being syntactically valid, and finally, by processing targeted syntactic sequences in a conceptual analysis process to generate the utterance's conceptual representation that can be used to produce an adequate response.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2010Publication date: November 24, 2011Applicant: Conceptual Speech LLCInventor: Philippe Roy

Patent number: 7286987Abstract: A system and method related to a new approach to speech recognition that reacts to concepts conveyed through speech. In its fullest implementation, the system and method shifts the balance of power in speech recognition from straight sound recognition and statistical models to a more powerful and complete approach determining and addressing conveyed concepts. This is done by using a probabilistically unbiased multi-phoneme recognition process, followed by a phoneme stream analysis process that builds the list of candidate words derived from recognized phonemes, followed by a permutation analysis process that produces sequences of candidate words with high potential of being syntactically valid, and finally, by processing targeted syntactic sequences in a conceptual analysis process to generate the utterance's conceptual representation that can be used to produce an adequate response.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2003Date of Patent: October 23, 2007Assignee: Conceptual Speech LLCInventor: Philippe Roy
