  • Patent number: 9412370
    Abstract: A method and a system for a speech recognition system, comprising an electronic speech-based document is associated with a document template and comprises one or more sections of text recognized or transcribed from sections of speech. The sections of speech are transcribed by the speech recognition system into corresponding sections of text of the electronic speech based document. The method includes the steps of dynamically creating sub contexts and associating the sub context to sections of text of the document template.

  • Patent number: 9274746
    Abstract: A multi-modal user interface is described that hides response latency delays. A graphical user interface (GUI) supports different user input modalities including low delay inputs which respond to user inputs without significant delay, and high latency inputs which have a significant response latency after receiving a user input before providing a corresponding completed response. The GUI accepts user inputs in a sequence of mixed input modalities independently of response latencies without waiting for responses to high latency inputs, and responds to each user input in the sequence as if each preceding user input in the sequence had been performed without response latencies.

  • Patent number: 8924216
    Abstract: A method for synchronizing sound data and text data, said text data being obtained by manual transcription of said sound data during playback of the latter. The proposed method comprises the steps of repeatedly querying said sound data and said text data to obtain a current time position corresponding to a currently played sound datum and a currently transcribed text datum, respectively, correcting said current time position by applying a time correction value in accordance with a transcription delay, and generating at least one association datum indicative of a synchronization association between said corrected time position and said currently transcribed text datum. Thus, the proposed method achieves cost-effective synchronization of sound and text in connection with the manual transcription of sound data.

  • Patent number: 8612231
    Abstract: A method and a system of history tracking corrections in a speech based document are disclosed. The speech based document comprises one or more sections of text recognized or transcribed from sections of speech, wherein the sections of speech are dictated by a user and processed by a speech recognizer in a speech recognition system into corresponding sections of text of the speech based document.

  • Patent number: 8364489
    Abstract: A method and a system of history tracking corrections in a speech based document. The speech based document comprises one or more sections of text recognized or transcribed from sections of speech, wherein the sections of speech are dictated by a user and processed by a speech recognizer in a speech recognition system into corresponding sections of text of the speech based document. The method comprises associating at least one speech attribute to each section of text in the speech based document, said speech attribute comprising information related to said section of text, respectively; presenting said speech based document on a presenting unit; detecting an action being performed within any of said sections of text; and updating information of said speech attributes related to the kind of action detected on one of said sections of text for updating said speech based document.

  • Publication number: 20120215531
    Abstract: A multi-modal user interface with increased responsiveness is described. A graphical user interface (GUI) supports multiple different user input modalities including low delay inputs which respond to user inputs without significant delay, and high latency inputs which have a significant response latency after receiving a user input before providing a corresponding completed response. The GUI accepts user inputs in a sequence of mixed input modalities independently of response latencies without waiting for responses to high latency inputs. The GUI also provides interim indication during response latencies of pending responses at a position in the GUI where the completed response will be presented.

  • Patent number: 7890481
    Abstract: The invention regards a system (10) and method for managing BLOBs. The system combines a file subsystem (20) and a database subsystem (30), wherein the database subsystem (30) comprises relations between file names of files (40) comprising a BLOB (50) and BLOB names. In the event of modification of a file (40) containing a BLOB (50), a new file, having a new file name, is created, where a relation between the new file name and the BLOB name is created within a database transaction in the database subsystem (30). By thus extending the ACID-properties of database transactions to files, it is ensured that operations on BLOBs in the system (10) meet the ACID-requirements while keeping the efficiency of operations on files.
