  • Patent number: 11829716
    Abstract: The present invention may be a method, a computer system, and a computer program product for suggesting an output candidate. The method comprises receiving a user input; selecting a corpus containing an expression similar to the user input among a plurality of corpuses; finding, in the user input, a seed word that may be present in a definition statement of an entry in a dictionary; identifying, in the dictionary, an entry of a definition statement containing the seed word or within a threshold similarity to the seed word with reference to the selected corpus; and suggesting the identified entry as an output candidate.

  • Publication number: 20230317069
    Abstract: The present inventive concept provided for context aware speech transcription. The method includes obtaining speech corpora for a target domain. A corrected speech corpora is created by editing misused words in the speech corpora with correct words for the target domain. The training sets are prepared based on the speech corpora and corrected speech corpora, and an optimal percentage of the training sets to use for accurate transcription of speech related to the target domain is determined.

  • Patent number: 11423325
    Abstract: A method, a system, and a computer program product for predicting an outcome expected for a particular positional value is provided. In the method, an input set of data records, each having a label and a positional value, and a target positional value are obtained. The label of each data record is one in a label set. A learning model that includes an output layer, an input layer corresponding to the label set and a network structure provided therebetween is read. In the learning model, the network structure has a plurality of functions trained so as to evaluate influence from each label in the label set depending on a relationship between the target positional value and a representative positional value associated with the label in the label set. A target outcome is estimated for the target positional value from the input set using the learning model.

  • Patent number: 11373300
    Abstract: Within a first image in a set of images comprising a panoramic view of a scene, a first boundary feature is identified using a model. Within the first boundary feature, a first set of points is selected. Within a second image in the set of images, a second boundary feature is identified using the model. Within the second boundary feature, a second set of points is selected. A set of parameters of a geometrical shape including the first set of points and the second set of points is determined. From the first image and the second image, a panoramic image is formed, the first image placed within the panoramic image according to the position of the first image on the geometrical shape, the second image placed in the panoramic image according to the position of the second image on the geometrical shape.
