Abstract: A system and method of regulating speech output by a text-to-speech (TTS) system includes: evaluating speech that has been converted from text using an initial speech quality test before presentation to a user; applying a classification test to the evaluated speech if the evaluated speech falls below a threshold based on the initial speech quality test; generating an abnormal speech classification for the evaluated speech; and applying a corrective action to the evaluated speech based on the abnormal speech classification.

Abstract: A system and method for adapting a speech recognition and generation system. The system and method include providing a speech recognition and generation engine that processes speech received from a user and providing a dictionary adaptation module that adds out of vocabulary words to a baseline dictionary of the speech recognition and generation system. Words are added by extracting words that are encountered and adding out of vocabulary words to the baseline dictionary of the speech recognition and generation system.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for adapting a speech system. In one example a method includes: logging speech data from the speech system; detecting a user characteristic from the speech data; and selectively updating a language model based on the user characteristic.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for adapting a speech system of a vehicle. In one example a method includes: logging data from the vehicle; logging speech data from the speech system; processing the data from the vehicle and the data from the speech system to determine a pattern of context and a relation to user interaction behavior; and selectively updating a user profile of the speech system based on the pattern of context.

Abstract: An apparatus for use in adjusting a controllable system based on a user-communication input, such as non-detailed or indiscriminate input. The apparatus includes a processor and a computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations for determining an objective system command, corresponding to the user input, for use in adjusting the controllable system.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for adapting a speech system. In one example a method includes: processing a spoken command with one or more models of one or more model types to achieve model results; evaluating a frequency of the model results; and selectively updating the one or more models of the one or more model types based on the evaluating.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for adapting a speech system. In one example a method includes: logging speech data from the speech system; processing the speech data for a pattern of a user competence associated with at least one of task requests and interaction behavior; and selectively updating at least one of a system prompt and an interaction sequence based on the user competence.

Abstract: A method of loading content items for accessibility by a vehicle automatic speech recognition (ASR) system. The method tracks content items requested by one or more users and prioritizes the loading of requested content items and/or selectively loads requested content items at least partially based on the interaction history of one or more users. The method may also adapt the ASR system based on the interaction history of one or more users to make preferred content items readily accessible instead of randomly accessible.

Abstract: A system and method of adapting a speech system includes the steps of: receiving confirmation of a phonetic transcription of one or more names, receiving confirmation of a selected stored text result, and storing the phonetic transcription with the selected stored text result using an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system, a text-to-speech (TTS) system, or both.

Abstract: A method searching navigation system data includes receiving a spoken utterance from a user, processing the spoken utterance to produce a dictation text substantially corresponding to the spoken utterance, and querying the navigation system data with the dictation text using an approximate string matching criteria and producing a results list associated therewith.
