Abstract: A method for promoting interpersonal interactions includes a step of receiving data streams from a plurality of mobile smart devices from a plurality of users, the data streams recording information about users' daily lives. Intervention signals are sent to a user in response to data acquired from two or more individuals and interpreted with respect to user internal states, moods, emotions, predetermined behaviors, and interactions with other users.

Abstract: A method for monitoring and understanding interpersonal relationships includes a step of monitoring interpersonal relations of a couple or group of interpersonally connected users with a plurality of smart devices by collecting data streams from the smart devices. Representations of interpersonal relationships are formed for increasing knowledge about relationship functioning and detecting interpersonally-relevant mood states and events. Feedback and/or goals are provided to one or more users to increase awareness about relationship functioning.

Abstract: 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.

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.
