Patent number: 7822614Abstract: A language analyzer performs speech recognition on a speech input by a speech input unit, specifies a possible word which is represented by the speech, and the score thereof, and supplies word data representing them to an agent processing unit. The agent processing unit stores process item data which defines a data acquisition process to acquire word data or the like, a discrimination process, and an input/output process, and wires or data defining transition from one process to another and giving a weighting factor to the transition, and executes a flow represented generally by the process item data and the wires to thereby control devices belonging to an input/output target device group. To which process in the flow the transition takes place is determined by the weighting factor of each wire, which is determined by the connection relationship between a point where the process has proceeded and the wire, and the score of word data.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2004Date of Patent: October 26, 2010Assignee: Kabushikikaisha KenwoodInventor: Rika Koyama

Patent number: 7529676Abstract: A language analyzer 2 performs speech recognition on a speech input by a speech input unit 1, specifies a possible word which is represented by the speech, and the score thereof, and supplies word data representing them to an agent processing unit 6. The agent processing unit 6 stores process item data which defines a data acquisition process to acquire word data or the like, a discrimination process, and an input/output process, and wires or data defining transition from one process to another and giving a weighting factor to the transition, and executes a flow represented generally by the process item data and the wires to thereby control devices belonging to an input/output target device group 5. To which process in the flow the transition takes place is determined by the weighting factor of each wire, which is determined by the connection relationship between a point where the process has proceeded and the wire, and the score of word data.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2004Date of Patent: May 5, 2009Assignee: Kabushikikaisha KenwoodInventor: Rika Koyama

Patent number: 7505909Abstract: A language analyzer (2) performs speech recognition on a speech input by a speech input unit (1), specifies a possible word which is represented by the speech, and the score thereof, and supplies word data representing them to an agent processing unit (6). The agent processing unit (6) stores process item data which defines a data acquisition process to acquire word data or the like, a discrimination process, and an input/output process, and wires or data defining transition from one process to another and giving a weighting factor to the transition, and executes a flow represented generally by the process item data and the wires to thereby control devices belonging to an input/output target device group (5).

Patent number: 7454347Abstract: A labeling part 3 analyzes the character string data to produce a phoneme label and a prosody label, partition the voice data stored in a voice database 1 into phonemic data, and label the phonemic data, employing the phoneme label and the like. A phoneme segmenting part 4 connects the voice data labeled with the same kind of phonemic data, and a formant extracting part 5 specifies the frequency of formant of each piece of phonemic data. A processing part 6 decides an evaluation value for each phonemic data based on the frequency of formant, and an error detection part 7 detects the phonemic data of which a deviation of the evaluation value within a set of phonemic data reaches a predetermined amount.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2004Date of Patent: November 18, 2008Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha KenwoodInventor: Rika Koyama
