Pedro Cano 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: 12340173
    Abstract: The invention relates to a semantic data acquisition, storage and presentation system comprising SentenceClasses wherein SentenceClasses comprise SentenceClassLabels and SentenceClassData, each such label in the form of a RelationalPhrase or an alias thereof, and data, for each class, organized in conformance with the class-defining relation, as expressed in the form of the RelationalPhrase. Instantiation of SentenceClasses, by replacing substitution variables in RelationalPhrases with associated items of SentenceClassData, produces Sentences that provides context to the instantiated items. The system of the invention also comprises methods and processes including for: acquiring, transforming and recording data; operating on SentenceClasses including forming new SentenceClasses; and instantiating, rendering and presenting Sentences in human or machine-readable format.

  • Publication number: 20050049875
    Abstract: A voice converting apparatus is constructed for converting an input voice into an output voice according to a target voice. In the apparatus, a storage section provisionally stores source data, which is associated to and extracted from the target voice. An analyzing section analyzes the input voice to extract therefrom a series of input data frames representing the input voice. A producing section produces a series of target data frames representing the target voice based on the source data, while aligning the target data frames with the input data frames to secure synchronization between the target data frames and the input data frames. A synthesizing section synthesizes the output voice according to the target data frames and the input data frames. In the recognizing feature analysis, a characteristic analyzer extracts from the input voice a characteristic vector. A memory memorizes target behavior data representing a behavior of the target voice.
