Abstract:
A speech recognition device is provided. The speech recognition device includes at least one microphone configured to receive a sound signal from a first sound source, and at least one processor configured to determine a direction of the first sound source based on the sound signal, determine whether the direction of the first sound source is in a registered direction, and based on whether the direction of the first sound source is in the registered direction, recognize a speech from the sound signal regardless of whether the sound signal comprises a wake-up keyword.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for gesture recognition in a portable terminal. An operation of the portable terminal includes determining a user situation by using at least one situation information, determining a user's gesture by using at least one sensor measurement value, and performing a function corresponding to the user situation and the gesture.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for providing a map service using a global positioning service in a mobile terminal includes determining a current position of the mobile terminal. A moving path of the mobile terminal is recorded. If content for key point marking are generated, a tag icon corresponding to the content is inserted into a point representing the current position of the mobile terminal. A map message includes the moving path, the tag icon, and the content.

Abstract:
An apparatus and method provide virtual broadcasting. A method of server operation for virtual broadcasting includes receiving a request for creation of a virtual broadcasting channel meeting a specific required condition from a first client, identifying a virtual group meeting the specific required condition, analyzing log data of second clients within the virtual group and, based on the analyzed result, providing broadcasting information meeting the specific condition, to the first client.
Abstract:
A method of recognizing an area by an electronic device is provided. The method includes identifying area information for the electronic device and determining whether the electronic device enters a Point Of Interest (POI), using Access Point (AP) information included in the identified area information.
Abstract:
A storage device includes memories and a controller. The controller controls first and second program operations on the memory. When a temperature of the memory is lower than a reference value, the controller controls execution of the first program operation. When the temperature of the memory is equal to or higher than the reference value, the controller controls execution of the second program operation which consumes a smaller amount of power than the first program operation. The controller adjusts an operational condition of the memory such that bandwidth on the memory remains equivalent during the first and second program operations.
Abstract:
A method and a user terminal for identifying exercise information of a user are provided. The method includes detecting air pressure information at a location of the user terminal; identifying a state of a topography at the location of the user terminal by using the detected air pressure information; analyzing vertical movement and horizontal movement of the user terminal to identify movement information of the user terminal; and identifying the exercise information of the user according to the identified movement information of the user terminal and the identified state of the topography at the location of the user terminal.
Abstract:
A memory device executes a method of controlling power of the memory device. The memory device includes a host interface which receives a command from a host and controls an access to the memory device by the host, a register which is accessible by the host and includes a plurality of different regions, a memory access monitor which monitors which region of the plurality of regions the host accesses, and in response thereto generates a monitoring signal, and a power control manager which selects a power-up group of modules of the memory device in accordance with the monitoring signal and which supplies power to the selected power-up group of modules while not supplying power to any modules of the memory device not belonging to the selected power-up group.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for constructing a multilingual acoustic model, and a computer readable recording medium are provided. The method for constructing a multilingual acoustic model includes dividing an input feature into a common language portion and a distinctive language portion, acquiring a tandem feature by training the divided common language portion and distinctive language portion using a neural network to estimate and remove correlation between phonemes, dividing parameters of an initial acoustic model constructed using the tandem feature into common language parameters and distinctive language parameters, adapting the common language parameters using data of a training language, adapting the distinctive language parameters using data of a target language, and constructing an acoustic model for the target language using the adapted common language parameters and the adapted distinctive language parameters.
