SPEECH RECOGNITION FOR MULTIPLE USERS USING SPEECH PROFILE COMBINATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17939805 titled 'SPEECH RECOGNITION FOR MULTIPLE USERS USING SPEECH PROFILE COMBINATION

Simplified Explanation

This patent application describes systems and processes for speech recognition for multiple users. Here are the key points:

  • The system receives speech input from a user and obtains a combined speech profile from multiple speech profiles.
  • The speech input is interpreted based on the combined speech profile to obtain multiple speech recognition results.
  • The results include a speech recognition result for the first user and a speech recognition result for the second user.
  • The system then selects the appropriate speech recognition result based on the identified voice profile of the user.


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and processes for speech recognition for multiple users are provided. For example, in response to receiving speech input from a user, a combined speech profile is obtained from a plurality of speech profiles. The speech input is interpreted based on the combined speech profile to obtain a plurality of speech recognition results. The plurality of speech recognition results includes a first speech recognition result corresponding to a first speech profile of the plurality of speech profiles, wherein the first speech profile corresponds to a first user, and a second speech recognition result corresponding to a second speech profile of the plurality of speech profiles, wherein the second speech profile corresponds to a second user different from the first user. A respective speech recognition result based on an identified voice profile is then selected from the plurality of speech recognition results.
