Abstract: The system includes a remotely controlled medical system having a controller in communication with a command device incorporating a microphone. The system further includes a medical device operable by the controller and a sound generator coupled to the controller. The command device incorporating a microphone is paired to the controller for operating the medical device by detecting the sound. The command device incorporating a microphone transmits a signal in response to the sound to the controller to verify the pairing of the command device incorporating a microphone to the controller such that the controller will only operate the medical device in response to a command issued near the sound generator.

Abstract: A call routing and supervising system includes an input receiving customer speech from a remote location, and a voice characteristics extractor extracting voice characteristics from the customer speech, such as language/dialect/accent, age group, gender, and eigendimension coordinates. A customer service representative selector selects one or more customer service representatives based on profiles of the customer service representatives respective of customers having voice characteristics similar to the extracted voice characteristics. In other aspects, a call monitor automatically analyzes dialogue between the customer and the customer service representative, such as detected interruptions, tracked dialogue turns, and recognized key phrases indicating frustration, polity, and/or resolution characteristics of dialogue. The call monitor records performance of the customer service representative respective of customers having the voice characteristics. Automatic call rerouting and/or real-time instruction of call center personnel can also be accomplished based on analysis results.

Abstract: A portable device, such as a cellular telephone, engages the user in a challenge-response sequence that is based on recognition of the user's utterance and also upon verification of the user's speech patterns or voiceprint. The challenge-response protocol presents the user with an unexpected challenge word, which the user is then requested to respond to. The system maintains a secure data store of challenge words which it adapts and augments as the user makes use of the portable device. The portable device provides the user with a convenient, single access point through which he or she can authenticate with a variety of disparate secure devices ranging from door locks, ATM machines, financial institutions and third-party business associates.

Abstract: An automated hotel attendant is provided for coordinating room-to-room calling over a telephone switching system that supports multiple telephone extensions. A hotel registration system receives and stores the spelled names of hotel guests as well as assigns each guest an associated telephone extension. A lexicon training system is connected to the hotel registration system for generating pronunciations for each spelled name by converting the characters that spell those names into word-phoneme data. This word-phoneme data is in turn stored in a lexicon that is used by a speech recognition system. In particular, a phoneticizer in conjunction with a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based model trainer serves as the basis for the lexicon training system, such that one or several HMM models associated with each guest name are stored in the lexicon. An automated attendant is coupled to the speech recognition system for converting a spoken name of a hotel guest entered from one of the telephone extensions into a predefined hotel guest name that can be used to retrieve an assigned telephone extension from the hotel registration system. Next, the automated attendant causes the telephone switching system to call the requested telephone extension in response to the entry of the spoken name from one of the telephone extensions.

Abstract translation: 提供一个自动化酒店服务人员通过支持多个电话分机的电话交换系统协调房间到房间的通话。 酒店注册系统接收并存储酒店客人的拼写名称，并为每个客人分配相关的电话分机。 词典训练系统连接到酒店注册系统，用于通过将拼写这些名称的字符转换为字音素数据来产生每个拼写名称的发音。 该字音素数据又被存储在由语音识别系统使用的词典中。 特别地，与基于隐马尔可夫模型（HMM）的模型训练器相结合的语音提供者用作词典训练系统的基础，使得与每个来宾姓名相关联的一个或多个HMM模型被存储在词典中。 自动话务员被耦合到语音识别系统，用于将从一个电话分机输入的酒店客人的口语名称转换成可用于从酒店注册系统检索分配的电话分机的预定义酒店客人姓名。 接下来，自动话务员使得电话交换系统响应于从电话分机之一输入口语名称来呼叫所请求的电话分机。

Abstract: The mixed decision tree includes a network of yes-no questions about adjacent letters in a spelled word sequence and also about adjacent phonemes in the phoneme sequence corresponding to the spelled word sequence. Leaf nodes of the mixed decision tree provide information about which phonetic transcriptions are most probable. Using the mixed trees, scores are developed for each of a plurality of possible pronunciations, and these scores can be used to select the best pronunciation as well as to rank pronunciations in order of probability. The pronunciations generated by the system can be used in speech synthesis and speech recognition applications as well as lexicography applications.

Abstract: The system includes a controller having first and second speech recognition modules and a decision module. The system includes at least one medical device operable by the controller. The system includes a first microphone in communication with the first speech recognition module, and a second microphone in communication with the second speech recognition module. The first speech recognition module generates a first set of commands from voice signals it receives from the first microphone. The second speech recognition module generates a second set of commands from voice signals it receives from the second microphone. The decision module receives the first and second sets of commands, accepts a subset of the commands in the first and second sets, rejects the remainder of the commands, and assembles a third set of commands comprising the accepted commands. The controller executes the third set of commands to operate the at least one medical device.
