摘要： A speech recognition system or method can include a speech input device and a processor coupled to the speech input device. The processor can be programmed to identify a plurality of words that are members of confusable pairs of words where each pair includes a target word and a substituted word. The processor can degrade a pronunciation of the substituted word to provide a worse pronunciation of the substituted word. The processor can further compare the pronunciation of the target word with the worse pronunciation to the substituted word. The processor can be further programmed to reduce confusion between the substituted word and other words in a recognition grammar of the speech recognition engine and can also narrow the scope within which the substituted word is recognized.

摘要： An in-vehicle system that shares speech processing resources among multiple applications located within a vehicle. The system can include one or more software applications, each associated with different functionally independent in-vehicle consoles. Each application can have a console specific user interface. The system can also include a single in-vehicle speech processing system implemented separately from the in-vehicle consoles. The speech processing system can execute speech processing tasks responsive to requests received from the applications. That is, the in-vehicle speech processing system can provide speech processing capabilities for the applications. The provided speech processing capabilities can include text-to-speech capabilities and speech recognition capabilities.

摘要： A method for implementing speech focus in a speech processing system can include the step of establishing a default focus receiver as a first entity to request speech focus of a speech processing system having multiple applications that share speech resources based upon speech focus. An event occurrence can be detected. An event handler of the default speech receiver can previously define behavior for the event occurrence and where default system behavior can be implemented within the speech processing system for the event occurrence. The default system behavior can be utilized when speech focus is not assigned during the event occurrence. Responsive to the event occurrence, at least one programmatic action can be performed in accordance with machine readable instructions of the event handler. The default system behavior is not implemented responsive to the event occurrence.

摘要： The present invention discloses a solution for conserving computing resources when implementing transformation based adaptation techniques. The disclosed solution limits the amount of speech data used by real-time adaptation algorithms to compute a transformation, which results in substantial computational savings. Appreciably, application of a transform is a relatively low memory and computationally cheap process compared to memory and resource requirements for computing the transform to be applied.

摘要： An embodiment of the invention provides a method for controlling access to content in a social networking website, wherein a connection is established between a first user and a second user on the social networking website. Content on the profile pages of the first user is categorized into a first content category and a second content category. The first content category includes content created before the connection between the first user and the second user was established. The second content category includes content created after the connection between the first user and the second user was established. Content in the first content category is also categorized into a first subcategory and at least one second subcategory. Access by the second user is restricted to the first content category. Specifically, the second user is prevented from viewing content in the first subcategory and permitted to view content in the second subcategory.

摘要翻译： 本发明的实施例提供了一种用于控制对社交网络网站中的内容的访问的方法，其中在社交网站上的第一用户和第二用户之间建立连接。 第一用户的简档页面上的内容被分类为第一内容类别和第二内容类别。 第一内容类别包括在建立第一用户和第二用户之间的连接之前创建的内容。 第二内容类别包括在建立第一用户和第二用户之间的连接之后创建的内容。 第一内容类别中的内容也被分类为第一子类别和至少一个第二子类别。 第二用户的访问仅限于第一内容类别。 特别地，阻止第二用户观看第一子类别中的内容，并允许查看第二子类别中的内容。

摘要： A computer implemented method, system and/or computer program product confirm an orally entered address to a mobile navigation device. The mobile navigation device receives a global positioning system (GPS) root address component from a GPS. The GPS root address component is a text name of a root location at which a mobile navigation device is currently located. The mobile navigation device receives an orally entered address that comprises an oral root address component and an oral subunit component of the oral root address component. In response to the converted root address component matching the GPS root address component, the orally entered address is partitioned into the oral subunit component and the oral root address component, and any additional speech-to-text conversion of the orally entered address after the oral root address component is terminated.
