Abstract: The present invention comprises a system and method for speech verification using an efficient confidence measure, and includes a speech verifier which compares a confidence measure for a recognized word to a predetermined threshold value in order to determine whether the recognized word is valid, where a recognized word corresponds to a word model that produces a highest recognition score. In accordance with the present invention, the foregoing confidence measure may be calculated using the recognition score for the recognized word and a pseudo filler score that may be based upon selected average recognition scores from an N-best list of recognition candidates.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for performing a fast two-dimensional inverse discrete cosine transform (IDCT) in a media processor are disclosed. A processor receives at least one input component representing discrete cosine transform data and combines, in a first stage, the at least one input component with a first set of constants. In a media processor with a partitioned SIMD architecture, the input data and first set of constants may be combined, for example, by multiplying the at least one input component with a first set of constants using a complex multiplication instruction. The output is transposed in a second stage and combined with constants in a third stage.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for updating a memory in a Compact Disc changer. Information identifying discs stored in a CD changer is stored in a memory. The memory is updated when a CD is loaded which does not have identifying features which are recognized by the CD changer. Updating is carried out via a modem connection to a remote database. The database can be stored locally in a local database residing in a personal computer where the database can be queried to locate desired tracks and can be used to facilitate control of the compact disc changer by providing a simplified interface for building a play list and the like.

Abstract: One and only instance of a video service model component (for example, an electronic program guide (EPG) model description) is executed in a home network gateway, with multiple instantiations of a view/controller module associated with the model module being generated, one for each display device seeking to simultaneously display the video service. In this way the functionality of a single video service model is shared in the network without requiring the underlying model module itself to be replicated.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a receiving apparatus, a receiving method, and a program which are configured to provide application programs to be executed in response to AV content. The receiving apparatus includes: a receiving block; a trigger acquisition block; an application acquisition block; and a control block. The control block acquires trigger information and, on the basis of a command obtained from the acquired trigger information, acquires a data broadcast application from an application server on the Internet or a data broadcast application transmitted as NRT content of an NRT service using a FLUTE session by referencing an FDT identified by an SMT and an NRT-IT. In accordance with a command obtained from the acquired trigger information, the control block controls an operation of the acquired application program. The present technology is applicable to television receivers configured to receive digital television broadcast signals.

Abstract: A portable media player communicates with a host computer for enabling a user of the player to manage media distribution using the control software of the host computer. The host computer can send a GUI that is displayed on the otherwise “dumb” player, and the user can view the GUI and press a single button to command the control software to download a media title to the player. The host computer can periodically poll the player to determine its status.
