    摘要: Disclosed are a method and apparatus for processing a continuous audio stream containing human speech in order to locate a particular speech-based transaction in the audio stream, applying both known speaker recognition and speech recognition techniques. Only the utterances of a particular predetermined speaker are transcribed thus providing an index and a summary of the underlying dialogue(s). In a first scenario, an incoming audio stream, e.g. a speech call from outside, is scanned in order to detect audio segments of the predetermined speaker. These audio segments are then indexed and only the indexed segments are transcribed into spoken or written language. In a second scenario, two or more speakers located in one room are using a multi-user speech recognition system (SRS). For each user there exists a different speaker model and optionally a different dictionary or vocabulary of words already known or trained by the speech or voice recognition system.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for determining the state of bank notes. Determination of the state of bank notes by which data of at least two different properties of the bank notes are evaluated involves linking the data of the at least two different properties of each bank note with each other, and deriving the state of the bank note from the linked data of the different properties.

    摘要: A digitized speech signal (600) is input to an F0 (fundamental frequency) processor that computes (610) a continuous F0 data from the speech signal. By the criterion voicing state transition (voiced/unvoiced transitions) the speech signal is presegmented (620) into segments. For each segment (630) it is evaluated (640) whether F0 is defined or not defined i.e. whether F0 is ON or OFF. In case of F0=OFF a candidate segment boundary is assumed as described above and, starting from that boundary, prosodic features are computed (650). The feature values are input into a classification tree and each candidate segment is classified thereby revealing, as a result, the existence or non-existence of a semantic or syntactic speech unit.

    摘要: The invention relates to a security document with a security element having at least a first layer with gaps in the form of characters or patterns or the like, and a discontinuous magnetic layer in the form of a coding disposed below said first layer. In the areas where the gaps and the magnetic layer overlap, the gaps are also present in the magnetic layer. The invention further relates to a security element and to methods for producing said element and the document.
