Chetan Nichkawde has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10740391
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method and a video generator for generating video response to user queries. The video generator receives a visual image of a character of interest from the user and generates a frontal face of the visual image. Further, facial expressions of the character of interest are mapped with an audio/video sequence of one or more textual responses for generating a human like video response to the user queries. In an embodiment, the video generator detects gender of the character of interest, and modulates and matches voice of the video response based on the gender of the character of interest. The instant method can synthesize a video with the face of a character of interest to the user, thereby providing a wholesome communication experience to the user.

  • Publication number: 20180218750
    Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying and learning emotions in conversation utterances are described. The system receives at least one of textual utterance data, audio utterance data and visual utterance data. A set of facial expressions are fetched from the visual utterance data. The system annotates the set of facial expressions with corresponding set of emotions using predictive modeling. Upon annotating, labelled data is generated by tagging the textual utterance data and the audio utterance data with the set of emotions. The labelled data along with non-labelled data is fed into self-learning model of the system. The non-labelled data is new textual utterance data. The self-learning model learns, from the labelled data, about the set of emotions. Further, the self-learning model also determines a new set of emotions corresponding to the new textual utterance data by using recurrent neural network. The self-learning model generates new labelled data and update itself accordingly.
