Abstract: This invention provides hierarchical, gradual and iterative methods, systems, and software for improving and correcting natural language text. The methods comprise the steps of applying natural language processing (NLP) algorithms to a corpus of sentences so as to abstract each sentence; applying scoring and linguistic annotation to each abstract sentence; applying NLP algorithms to abstract input sentences; applying search algorithms to match an abstract input sentence to at least one abstract corpus sentence; and applying NLP algorithms to adapt said matched abstract corpus sentence to the input sentence.

Abstract: The present invention provides systems, software and methods method for accurate vowel detection in speech to text conversion, the method including the steps of applying a voice recognition algorithm to a first user speech input so as to detect known words and residual undetected words; and detecting at least one undetected vowel from the residual undetected words by applying a user-fitted vowel recognition algorithm to vowels from the known words so as to accurately detect the vowels in the undetected words in the speech input, to enhance conversion of voice to text.

Abstract: The present invention is a novel system and method for overcoming the shortcomings of existing speech-to-text systems which relates to the processing of unrecognized words. On encountering words which are not decipherable by it the preferred embodiment of the present invention analyzes the syllables which make up these words and translates them into the appropriate phonetic representations. The method described by the present invention ensures that words which were not uttered clearly would not be lost or distorted in the process of transcribing the text. Additionally, it allows using smaller and simpler speech-to-text applications, which are suitable for mobile devices with limited storage and processing resources, since these applications may use smaller dictionaries and may be designed only to identify commonly used words. Also disclosed are several examples for possible implementations of the described system and method.

Abstract: A method for reusing, managing and monitoring definitions in documents. The new method suggests using a dedicated process that manages the ‘life cycle’ of the definitions called ‘the definition transitional states process’. This process keeps track of each definition version in a dedicated versions tree, state transition process and history/log files functioned to track the changes. The method further suggests a systematic way to monitor the process of updating all the relevant documents whenever a definition in one of the hierarchical documents is created or modified.
