  • Patent number: 11074328
    Abstract: An authentication passphrase is analyzed to identify a first set of parts of speech in the passphrase. Based on comparing the first set with a second set of parts of speech corresponding to a stored passphrase, it is determined that the first set and the second set have less than a threshold number of common elements. In response to the determining, the passphrase is analyzed to score a level of a previously-set emotional tone in the passphrase. Access to a protected resource is allowed in response to the score being above a threshold.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10395545
    Abstract: In an aspect of the present disclosure, a method for analyzing the speech delivery of a user is disclosed including presenting to the user a plurality of speech delivery analysis criteria, receiving from the user a selection of at least one of the speech delivery analysis criterion, receiving, from at least one sensing device, speech data captured by the at least one sensing device during the delivery of a speech by the user, transmitting the speech data and the selected at least one speech delivery analysis criterion to an analysis engine for analysis based on the selected at least one speech delivery analysis criteria, receiving, from the analysis engine an analysis report for the speech data, the analysis report comprising an analysis of the speech data performed by the analysis engine based on the selected at least one criterion, and presenting to the user the analysis report.

  • Publication number: 20150161651
    Abstract: An interactive advertising service may be provided using a software conversation agent configured to promote products and/or services via a trained classifier and a hierarchy of concepts related to the products and/or services. Upon request, an interactive advertisement is provided for display to a remote user via a third-party content page, the advertisement including a first creative asset and a linguistic communication control. A world state is obtained and updated during a conversational interaction with the remote user. When free-form linguistic input is received from the remote user, the input is classified and the world state updated. When the world state matches a product and/or service, the interactive advertisement is updated to display a second creative asset corresponding to the matching product and/or service.

  • Patent number: 7245980
    Abstract: A method and apparatus calculates production quantities of a production system such as the throughput of a tool group, good unit equivalents of a tool group, number of units shipped and started for each step of the production system, process time of each step, average processing time, rate and units processed for each tool group, number of tools required and minimum and actual number of test cells or tool groups required. Some or all of these production quantities are calculated by taking into account the downtime of any controller of a tool group.
