  • Patent number: 9536524
    Abstract: Speech recognition models are dynamically re-configurable based on user information, background information such as background noise and transducer information such as transducer response characteristics to provide users with alternate input modes to keyboard text entry. The techniques of dynamic re-configurable speech recognition provide for deployment of speech recognition on small devices such as mobile phones and personal digital assistants as well environments such as office, home or vehicle while maintaining the accuracy of the speech recognition.

  • Patent number: 8571861
    Abstract: An automatic speech recognition (ASR) system and method is provided for controlling the recognition of speech utterances generated by an end user operating a communications device. The ASR system and method can be used with a mobile device that is used in a communications network. The ASR system can be used for ASR of speech utterances input into a mobile device, to perform compensating techniques using at least one characteristic and for updating an ASR speech recognizer associated with the ASR system by determined and using a background noise value and a distortion value that is based on the features of the mobile device. The ASR system can be used to augment a limited data input capability of a mobile device, for example, caused by limited input devices physically located on the mobile device.

  • Patent number: 5765124
    Abstract: An improved speech recognition system, in which transformation process parameters are generated in response to selected characteristics derived from speech inputs obtained from both carbon and linear microphones. The transformation process parameters are utilized in conjunction with selected digitized speech models to improve the speech recognition process based on the carbon microphone property of suppressing speech spectral energy for low energy invoiced sounds, and also for low energy regions of the spectrum between formant peaks for voices sounds.

  • Patent number: 4640992
    Abstract: There is disclosed a speech interface circuit for use with a communication bus to interface telephone users with a computer which is also connected to the communication bus. The circuit operates to accept digital input signals over the bus from the communication processor as well as from the user and to translate these signals for the benefit of the computer. Under control of computer instructions interpreted from the translated signals, the interface transmits selected prestored speech messages to calling users.
