20130035938 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR RECOGNIZING VOICE - The present invention includes a hierarchical search process. The hierarchical search process includes three steps. In a first step, a word boundary is determined using a recognition method of determining a following word dependent on a preceding word, and a word boundary detector. In a second step, word unit based recognition is performed in each area by dividing an input voice into a plurality of areas based on the determined word boundary. Finally, in a third step, a language model is applied to induce an optimal sentence recognition result with respect to a candidate word that is determined for each area. The present invention may improve the voice recognition performance, and particularly, the sentence unit based consecutive voice recognition performance. | 02-07-2013 |
20100008247 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TRANSCEIVING DATA USING RELAY DEVICE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM OF CENTRALIZED MAC - Provided is an apparatus and method for transmitting and a receiving data using a relay device in a centralized Media Access Control (MAC). The apparatus may include: a channel decision unit to determine a channel status with respect to a communication path using a corresponding device and a communication path using a relay device; a path selection unit to select at least one communication path between the communication path using the corresponding device and the communication path using the relay device, based on the channel status; and a transceiver to transmit and receive the data via the selected at least one communication path. | 01-14-2010 |
20090066720 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TRANSFORMING ADAPTIVELY VISUAL CONTENTS ACCORDING TO TERMINAL USER'S COLOR VISION CHARACTERISTICS - Disclosed are a method and a system that adaptively transform visual contents inputted from a network, in accordance with the visual characteristics of a terminal user. A visual characteristics descriptor that describes the information of the user visual characteristics in a predetermined format is proposed. The descriptor includes the information of the color vision deficiency type and the color vision deficiency degree. The color vision deficiency may be described in numerical degree or textual degree. The invention adaptively transforms visual contents differently in accordance with the color vision deficiency type. | 03-12-2009 |
