摘要： A recording device records a video and an imaging time, and a voice. Based on the voice, a sound parameter calculator calculates a sound parameter for specifying magnitude of the voice in a monitoring area at the imaging time for each of pixels and for each of certain times. A sound parameter storage unit stores the sound parameter. A sound parameter display controller superimposes a voice heat map on a captured image of the monitoring area and displays the superimposed image on a monitor. At this time, the sound parameter display controller displays the voice heat map based on a cumulative time value of magnitude of the voice, according to designation of a time range.

摘要： A method and apparatus for redacting sensitive information from audio is provided. The method comprises identifying, using a plurality of Classifiers, each corresponding to a plurality of sensitive items, a sensitive item (SI) token from a plurality of tokens comprised in a transcribed text of an audio. The SI token corresponds to one of the plurality of sensitive items, each of the plurality of tokens is a transcription of a spoken word in the audio, and each of the plurality of tokens is associated with a corresponding timestamp indicating a chronologic position of the spoken word in the audio. A redaction timespan is determined for the SI token from a first timestamp for the SI token and a second timestamp for a non-SI token immediately after the SI token, and the audio for the redaction timespan is redacted.

摘要： The method and system may provide a seamless handoff of user information from a drugstore to a call agent. When a customer communicates with a drugstore device regarding a drugstore-related inquiry, the drugstore device attempts to identify an answer to the drugstore-related inquiry. When the drugstore device does not identify an answer to the drugstore-related inquiry, the drugstore device initiates communication between the customer and a contact center. A transcribed version of the communication may be stored in a database accessible by the contact center along with additional user information for the customer related to the customer's experiences with the drugstore. The user information may be provided to a call agent's contact center device for display and in this manner, the call agent may be made aware of the communication to avoid asking repeat questions and to quickly and efficiently answer the customer's drugstore-related inquiry.

摘要： Techniques for speech processing using a deep neural network (DNN) based acoustic model front-end are described. A new modeling approach directly models multi-channel audio data received from a microphone array using a first model (e.g., multi-geometry/multi-channel DNN) that includes a frequency aligned network (FAN) architecture. Thus, the first model may perform spatial filtering to generate a first feature vector by processing individual frequency bins separately, such that multiple frequency bins are not combined. The first feature vector may be used similarly to beamformed features generated by an acoustic beamformer. A second model (e.g., feature extraction DNN) processes the first feature vector and transforms it to a second feature vector having a lower dimensional representation. A third model (e.g., classification DNN) processes the second feature vector to perform acoustic unit classification and generate text data. The DNN front-end enables improved performance despite a reduction in microphones.

摘要： Systems and methods are provided that may be implemented in a real time manner by an information handling system (the “client system”) to monitor one or more characteristics of a voice over internet protocol (VOIP) discussion, to use these monitored VOIP characteristics to identify one or more condition/s in real time as they are identified to occur during the current VOIP discussion, and to determine to take one or more automatic actions based on the identified VOIP condition/s so as to inform and/or alert a current human user of the client system to the occurrence of the identified VOIP condition/s as they occur.

摘要： A multiple sound source mixing method includes dividing a plurality of sound source data into segments each with a desired length; sequentially inputting sound source data of a corresponding segment for each segment through a desired number of nodes with respect to the plurality of sound source data and mixing the input sound source data into a single piece of sound source data; and concatenating the sound source data mixed for the respective segments.

摘要： Among other things, requests are received from voice assistant devices expressed in accordance with different corresponding protocols of one or more voice assistant frameworks. Each of the requests represents a voiced input by a user to the corresponding voice assistant device. The received requests are re-expressed in accordance with a common request protocol. Based on the received requests, responses to the requests are expressed in accordance with a common response protocol. Each of the responses is re-expressed according to a protocol of the framework with respect to which the corresponding request was expressed. The responses are sent to the voice assistant devices for presentation to the users.

摘要： Systems and methods for replacing original media bookmarks of at least a portion of a digital media file with replacement bookmarks is described. A media fingerprint engine detects the location of the original fingerprints associated with the portion of the digital media file and a region analysis algorithm characterizes regions of media file spanning the location of the original bookmarks by data class types. The replacement bookmarks are associated with the data class types and are overwritten or otherwise are substituted for the original bookmarks. The replacement bookmarks then are subjected to a fingerprint matching algorithm that incorporates media timeline and media related metadata.
