  • Patent number: 9514740
    Abstract: Training speech recognizers, e.g., their language or acoustic models, using actual user data is useful, but retaining personally identifiable information may be restricted in certain environments due to regulations. Accordingly, a method or system is provided for enabling training of a language model which includes producing segments of text in a text corpus and counts corresponding to the segments of text, the text corpus being in a depersonalized state. The method further includes enabling a system to train a language model using the segments of text in the depersonalized state and the counts. Because the data is depersonalized, actual data may be used, enabling speech recognizers to keep up-to-date with user trends in speech and usage, among other benefits.

  • Patent number: 9514741
    Abstract: Training speech recognizers, e.g., their language or acoustic models, using actual user data is useful, but retaining personally identifiable information may be restricted in certain environments due to regulations. Accordingly, a method or system is provided for enabling training of an acoustic model which includes dynamically shredding a speech corpus to produce text segments and depersonalized audio features corresponding to the text segments. The method further includes enabling a system to train an acoustic model using the text segments and the depersonalized audio features. Because the data is depersonalized, actual data may be used, enabling speech recognizers to keep up-to-date with user trends in speech and usage, among other benefits.

  • Publication number: 20150066674
    Abstract: Systems and methods to identify and associate related items are described. The system receives listing information describing a part that is offered for sale on a network-based marketplace that includes categories. The listing information includes a title and a category. The system stores the listing information in a listing according to the category. The system parses the title of the listing to identify tokens and to identify whether the tokens match a token in parts descriptors that describe parts that are associated with the first category. The system generates scores based on the tokens and the parts descriptors and may select a part type identifier based on the scores. Finally, the system registers the listing with the parts type identifier and associates listing(s) with the listing based on the parts type identifier. For example, the system may associate listings describing parts that are commonly purchased together.

  • Patent number: 8712023
    Abstract: Exemplary systems and methods for aggregating and graphically representing information associated with a telecommunications circuit are disclosed. An exemplary method includes a telecommunications management subsystem receiving, from a plurality of backend telecommunications subsystems, data representative of information associated with a telecommunications circuit, aggregating the data representative of the information associated with the telecommunications circuit, providing a portal configured for access by a user associated with the telecommunications circuit, and displaying, within the portal, a graphical user interface including a graphical representation of the telecommunications circuit. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20060268681
    Abstract: A technique is provided for implementing route aggregation in a computer network containing a multi-homed customer site connected to primary and second networks, which in turn are both connected to a common “backbone” network. According to the technique, the primary network allocates a block of network addresses for the customer site, and the customer site notifies the secondary network of its allocated addresses. The secondary network first determines whether the primary network has already advertised an aggregated route which incorporates the customer site's route. If so, the secondary network “suppresses” (i.e., does not advertise) the customer site's route. The secondary network only “unsuppresses” the customer site's route if it detects that the primary network has lost connectivity to the customer site and/or the backbone network.

  • Publication number: 20060034251
    Abstract: LDP label switching may be discontinued gracefully on one or more selected ones of multiple links interconnecting a pair of label switched routers (LSRs) while leaving label switching in operation on the remaining LDP-enabled links. Mechanisms for graceful shutdown of LDP on a selected link are added by way of modification to one or more of: e.g., LDP discovery Hello messages, LDP Label Withdraw/Label Release messages, LDP Notification messages.
