    Abstract: A method and system for improving the speech command recognition accuracy of a computer speech recognition system uses event-based constraints to recognize a spoken command. The constraints are system states and events, which include system activities, active applications, prior commands and an event queue. The method and system is performed by monitoring events and states of the computer system and receiving a processed command corresponding to the spoken command. The processed command is statistically analyzed in light of the system events and states as well as according to an acoustic model. The system then identifies a recognized command corresponding to the spoken command.

    Abstract: A method and a system for improving recall of speech data in a computer speech system can include a plurality of speech cache management steps including providing a speech cache, receiving a speech system input and identifying a speech event in the received speech system input, the speech event comprising speech data. Subsequently, the speech data can be compared to pre-determined speech cache entry criteria; and, if the speech data meets one of the pre-determined entry criteria, at least one entry can be added to the speech cache, the at least one entry corresponding to the speech data. Additionally, the speech data can be compared to pre-determined speech cache exit criteria; and, if the speech data meets one of the pre-determined exit criteria, at least one entry can be purged from the speech cache, the at least one entry corresponding to the speech data. The entry criteria can include frequently used speech data, recently used speech data, and important speech data. Similarly, the exit criteria can include least frequently used speech data associated with each entry in the speech cache, least recently used speech data associated with each entry in the speech cache and least important speed data associated with each entry in the speech cache.

    Abstract: A method in a speech application, has the steps of: storing a plurality of enrollments, each of the enrollments representing a speech file of training data associated with at least one of a specific audio input device and a specific audio environment for a specific user; generating a graphical user interface (GUI) display screen for prompting and enabling user selection of at least one of an audio input device and an audio environment; and, retrieving one of the enrollments responsive to the user selection, for use in a dictation or transcription session.

    Abstract: A method for enabling user selectable input devices for dictation or transcription in a speech application, comprising the steps of: establishing a registry of dictation and transcription device descriptions, each of the descriptions including a device specific image, a device specific set of device-connecting instructions and a device specific list of audio configuration parameters; building dynamic tables containing information retrieved from the registry; establishing and storing a plurality of enrollments, each of the enrollments representing a speech file of user specific training data corresponding to at least one of a specific audio input device and a specific audio environment; and, generating GUI display screen using the information in at least one of the dynamic tables to enable user selection any input device in the registry for which one of the enrollments is available, for use as a dictation or transcription input to the speech application.

    Abstract: Method and apparatus for enabling configuration of a PCI daughter card residing on an MCA adapter card using MCA setup cycles and signals and for ensuring the allocation of memory space to the daughter card. In a preferred embodiment, the invention comprises an MCA adapter card connected to an MCA system bus of a conventional PC. A PCI-compliant daughter card, the purpose of which is to provide additional functionality to circuitry of the adapter card, resides on a PCI bus of the adapter card. A PCI/MCA bridge is provided for interfacing the MCA system bus with the PCI bus of the adapter card for enabling configuration of the daughter card during the setup sequence of the MCA bus and to respond with an appropriate ROM signature during DOS boot-up to ensure that memory space will be allocated to the daughter card, if needed. A first set of XPOS registers of the adapter card are used selectively to enable the bridge and to a!low the PCI configuration space, or registers, of the daughter card and other PCI-compliant devices on the daughter card to be selectively accessed and initialized. Certain registers of a second set of XPOS registers are used to set the data flow mode of the bridge and to respond with the correct ROM signature at DOS boot-up of the PC. The remaining ones of the second set of XPOS registers are used selectively to enable and to store the size and location of any necessary RAM and/or ROM apertures of the daughter card, thereby enabling the bridge to initiate a PCI operation to the daughter card if it decodes an address within either of the apertures.
