    摘要: A method and apparatus for modification of a speech signal indicative of a stream of speech data having a plurality of syllables. The method comprises the steps of mapping the stream of speech data from the speech signal into a stream of tone data according to a linguistic rule regarding the syllables for providing a tone signal indicative of the stream of tone data; forming a string of musical notes responsive to the tone signal for providing a carrier signal indicative of the string of musical notes; modulating the carrier signal with the speech signal for providing a modified signal; and providing an audible signal representative of the speech signal, musically modified according to the linguistic rule. The linguistic rule includes an assignment of a tone to a syllable of the speech data based on a vowel of the syllable, a consonant of the syllable, the intonation of the syllable for a monosyllabic language. The musically modified speech signal can be used to indicate an incoming telephone call, a message left on a telephone, a scheduled event, or the like.

    摘要: The present invention provides, methods, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for tuning and adjusting the computational complexity of algorithm that is executed by a signal encoder. The signal encoder may comprise a speech encoder. When a resource shortage on a computer platform is detected, a degree of the resource shortage and a corresponding complexity adjustment for a speech encoder are determined. The speech encoder is then tuned to adjust the computational complexity of an executed speech processing algorithm. The resource shortage may correspond to a computational capability, audio buffer memory, or battery of a mobile device. A speech process being executed by the mobile device is tuned to adjust the computational demands in accordance with a complexity adjustment. A number of iteration rounds may be adjusted while the speech encoder is executing a speech processing algorithm. The iterations may correspond to an algebraic codebook search.

    摘要: Improved performance and user experience for speech recognition application and system by utilizing for example offline adaptation without tedious effort by a user. Interactions with a user may be in the form of a quiz, game, or other scenario wherein the user may implicitly provide vocal input for adaptation data. Queries with a plurality of candidate answers may be designed in an optimal and efficient way, and presented to the user, wherein detected speech from the user is then matched to one of the candidate answers, and may be used to adapt an acoustic model to the particular speaker for speech recognition.

    摘要: According to an aspect of the invention, an enhanced audible feedback solution has been invented for electronic devices using an input device facilitating navigation though a plurality of available user interface input options and confirmation of a selected input option. The electronic device is arranged to define, as a response to detecting a selection of a character on the basis of a detection of a first input to an input device of the electronic device, an audio segment specific to the character. The electronic device is arranged to output the defined audio segment via the audio output means prior to a confirmation by a second input to the input device, the second input being associated with a function adding the character as part of a character sequence entered by the user.

    摘要: A device and method for inputting information is disclosed. The device comprises a display, such as a touch-sensitive display, and a memory. The memory comprises a first set of characters, said first set of characters comprising at least two characters, and a second set of characters, said second set of characters comprising at least two characters. The characters in the first set of characters are statistically more likely to be selected in successive order than the characters in the second set of characters. The display is adapted to display, for selection of which character to input, the first set of characters.
