  • Patent number: 10276163
    Abstract: Audio data that encodes an utterance of a user is received. It is determined that the user has been classified as a novice user of a speech recognizer. A speech recognizer setting is selected that is used by the speech recognizer in generating a transcription of the utterance. The selected speech recognizer setting is different than a default speech recognizer setting that is used by the speech recognizer in generating transcriptions of utterances of users that are not classified as novice users. The selected speech recognizer setting results in increased speech recognition accuracy in comparison with the default setting. A transcription of the utterance is obtained that is generated by the speech recognizer using the selected setting.

  • Patent number: 9603437
    Abstract: An image processing device generates a make-up image when a make-up coating material is applied to a part of a subject appearing in a source image by processing the source image. A color range of pixels forming a coating material application layer is obtained by expanding a color range of pixels composing the part of the subject by a ratio of a color representing pixels composing the subject to a color of the make-up coating material. Values of pixels of the coating material application layer are obtained by mapping values of pixels of the source image to the color range of the coating material application layer.
