  • Patent number: 8447602
    Abstract: In a speech recognition and correction system which comprises at least one speech recognition device (1) to which a spoken text (GT) can be fed, it being possible for said spoken text to be transcribe into a recognized text (ET), and a correction device (3) for correcting the text (ET) recognized by the at least one speech recognition device (1), said correction device being connected to the at least one speech recognition device (1) via a data network (2) for the transmission of the recognized text (ET) and where appropriate of the spoken text (GT), the correction device (3) has a lexicon of alternatives (23) which contains word parts, words and word sequences that can be displayed (22) by the correction device (3) as alternatives to individual word parts, words and word sequences of the recognized text.

  • Patent number: 7174296
    Abstract: A transcription system including a transcription device for the automatic transcription of dictated material and additionally employs transcribers who manually transcribe some of the dictated material. The transcription device contains an abortion unit for aborting processing of certain dictated material by the transcription device and retransmitting this dictated material to one of the transcribers for manual transcription if the quality of the dictated audio data (AI) or the quality of the automatically transcribed text data (ATTI) is so poor that the correction of recognition errors in the automatically transcribed text data (ATTI) requires more effort than if said dictated material is transcribed manually from the outset.

  • Patent number: 7146317
    Abstract: A speech recognition device (8), to which can be applied over a first receive channel (21) and a second receive channel (25, 28) speech information (SI) that is colored by the respective receive channel (21, 25, 28), comprises reference storage means (36) for storing reference information (RI1) that features the type of pronunciation of words by a plurality of reference speakers and receive channel adaptation means (30, 38, 44) for adapting the stored reference information (RI, ARI) to a first or second receive channel (21, 25, 28) used by a user and user adaptation means (37) for adapting the stored reference information (RI1, RI2, RI3) to the type of pronunciation of words by the user of the speech recognition device (8) and speech recognition means (29) for recognizing text information (TI) to be assigned to the fed speech information (SI), while reference information (ARI1, ARI2, ARI3) adapted by the receive channel adaptation means (30, 38, 44) and by the user adaptation means (37) is evaluated, where no

  • Patent number: 6910005
    Abstract: A recording apparatus includes quality test and feedback features for recording speech information of a dictation and subsequently transfers the recorded speech information to a speech recognition device for off-line speech recognition. A recorder records speech information in a recording mode. A transfer unit transfers recorded speech information to the speech recognition device in a transfer mode. The speech recognition device recognizes text information to be assigned to the transferred speech information, the quality of recognized text information depending on the quality of the received speech information. A speech quality tester tests whether the quality of the speech information received in the recording mode is sufficient for obtaining a predefined quality of the recognized text information when the speech information is processed by the speech recognition device.

  • Publication number: 20030125951
    Abstract: A transcription system (5) comprises a transcription device (9) for the automatic transcription of dictated material and additionally employs transcribers (6) who manually transcribe some of the dictated material. The transcription device (9) contains abortion means (12, 13, 14) for aborting processing of certain dictated material by the transcription device (9) and retransmitting this dictated material to one of the transcribers (6) for manual transcription if the quality of the dictated audio data (AI) or the quality of the automatically transcribed text data (ATTI) is so poor that the correction of recognition errors in the automatically transcribed text data (ATTI) requires more effort than if said dictated material is transcribed manually from the outset.
