  • Patent number: 10204289
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and a system are proposed. According to the method, in response to receiving a character, a first representation of the character is generated by performing word embedding processing on the character. The first representation is related to context of the character. A second representation of the character is generated by performing convolutional neural network (CNN) processing on the character. The second representation is related to a hieroglyphic feature of the character. A label for the character is determined by performing recurrent neural network (RNN) processing on the first representation and the second representation. The label indicates an attribute of the character related to the context.

  • Patent number: 10032454
    Abstract: Techniques disclosed herein include systems and methods for open-domain voice-enabled searching that is speaker sensitive. Techniques include using speech information, speaker information, and information associated with a spoken query to enhance open voice search results. This includes integrating a textual index with a voice index to support the entire search cycle. Given a voice query, the system can execute two matching processes simultaneously. This can include a text matching process based on the output of speech recognition, as well as a voice matching process based on characteristics of a caller or user voicing a query. Characteristics of the caller can include output of voice feature extraction and metadata about the call. The system clusters callers according to these characteristics. The system can use specific voice and text clusters to modify speech recognition results, as well as modifying search results.
