Patent number: 10607600Abstract: A system and method of updating automatic speech recognition parameters on a mobile device are disclosed. The method comprises storing user account-specific adaptation data associated with ASR on a computing device associated with a wireless network, generating new ASR adaptation parameters based on transmitted information from the mobile device when a communication channel between the computing device and the mobile device becomes available and transmitting the new ASR adaptation data to the mobile device when a communication channel between the computing device and the mobile device becomes available. The new ASR adaptation data on the mobile device more accurately recognizes user utterances.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2018Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: NUANCE COMMUNICATIONS, INC.Inventors: Sarangarajan Parthasarathy, Richard Cameron Rose

Patent number: 9058810Abstract: Speech recognition models are dynamically re-configurable based on user information, application 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. Word recognition lattices are generated for each data field of an application and dynamically concatenated into a single word recognition lattice. A language model is applied to the concatenated word recognition lattice to determine the relationships between the word recognition lattices and repeated until the generated word recognition lattices are acceptable or differ from a predetermined value only by a threshold amount. These 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.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2012Date of Patent: June 16, 2015Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property II, L.P.Inventors: Bojana Gajic, Shrikanth Sambasivan Narayanan, Sarangarajan Parthasarathy, Richard Cameron Rose, Aaron Edward Rosenberg
