Abstract: This disclosure relates to a method for determining a component behavior of at least one vehicle component of a motor vehicle. A start-up of the at least one vehicle component of the motor vehicle for the first time is registered. Thereafter, a component identifier is created, which is assigned to the registered vehicle component. The component identifier includes a sequence of a predetermined number of characters, each character being generated by a random generator. Furthermore, operating data of the vehicle component in question are collected, which are assigned to the component identifier assigned to the vehicle component in question. The component behavior of the vehicle component in question is determined on the basis of the operating data assigned to the component identifier in question. This disclosure further relates to the vehicle component and to a motor vehicle having one or more vehicle components of this type.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an electronic device displays suggested routes based on the characteristics of respective vehicles. In some embodiments, an electronic device receives data for respective vehicles from a source external to the electronic device. In some embodiments, an electronic device anonymizes a vehicle identifier and determines customized suggested routes using the anonymized vehicle identifier. In some embodiments, Starting Charge Maps and/or Buffer Maps are generated and/or utilized for route generation or suggestion.

Abstract: A prosodic speech recognition engine configured to identify prosodic features and patterns in a speech continuum for the extraction of linguistic content including para-syntactic content, discourse function, information structure, meaning, and speaker sentiment.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for automated transcription model adaptation includes obtaining audio data from a plurality of audio files. The audio data is transcribed to produce at least one audio file transcription which represents a plurality of transcription alternatives for each audio file. Speech analytics are applied to each audio file transcription. A best transcription is selected from the plurality of transcription alternatives for each audio file. Statistics from the selected best transcription are calculated. An adapted model is created from the calculated statistics.

Abstract: A method for expanding an initial ontology via processing of communication data, wherein the initial ontology is a structural representation of language elements comprising a set of entities, a set of terms, a set of term-entity associations, a set of entity-association rules, a set of abstract relations, and a set of relation instances. A method for extracting a set of significant phrases and a set of significant phrase co-occurrences from an input set of documents further includes utilizing the terms to identify relations within the training set of communication data, wherein a relation is a pair of terms that appear in proximity to one another.

Abstract: Systems and methods of automated adaptation of a language model for transcription of audio data include obtaining audio data. The audio data is transcribed with a language model to produce a plurality of audio file transcriptions. A quality of the plurality of audio file transcriptions is evaluated. At least one best transcription from a plurality of audio file transcriptions is selected based upon the evaluated quality. Statistics are calculated from the selected at least one best transcription from the plurality of audio file transcriptions. The language model is modified from the calculated statistics.
