| 20090271199 | Records Disambiguation In A Multimodal Application Operating On A Multimodal Device - Methods, apparatus, and products are disclosed for record disambiguation in a multimodal application operating on a multimodal device, the multimodal device supporting multiple modes of interaction including at least a voice mode and a visual mode, that include: prompting, by the multimodal application, a user to identify a particular record among a plurality of records; receiving, by the multimodal application in response to the prompt, a voice utterance from the user; determining, by the multimodal application, that the voice utterance ambiguously identifies more than one of the plurality of records; generating, by the multimodal application, a user interaction to disambiguate the records ambiguously identified by the voice utterance in dependence upon record attributes of the records ambiguously identified by the voice utterance; and selecting, by the multimodal application for further processing, one of the records ambiguously identified by the voice utterance in dependence upon the user interaction. | 10-29-2009 |
| 20090271438 | Signaling Correspondence Between A Meeting Agenda And A Meeting Discussion - Methods, apparatus, and products are disclosed for signaling correspondence between a meeting agenda and a meeting discussion that include: receiving a meeting agenda specifying one or more topics for a meeting; analyzing, for each topic, one or more documents to identify topic keywords for that topic; receiving meeting discussions among participants for the meeting; identifying a current topic for the meeting in dependence upon the meeting agenda; determining a correspondence indicator in dependence upon the meeting discussions and the topic keywords for the current topic, the correspondence indicator specifying the correspondence between the meeting agenda and the meeting discussion; and rendering the correspondence indicator to the participants of the meeting. | 10-29-2009 |
| 20100299146 | Speech Capabilities Of A Multimodal Application - Improving speech capabilities of a multimodal application including receiving, by the multimodal browser, a media file having a metadata container; retrieving, by the multimodal browser, from the metadata container a speech artifact related to content stored in the media file for inclusion in the speech engine available to the multimodal browser; determining whether the speech artifact includes a grammar rule or a pronunciation rule; if the speech artifact includes a grammar rule, modifying, by the multimodal browser, the grammar of the speech engine to include the grammar rule; and if the speech artifact includes a pronunciation rule, modifying, by the multimodal browser, the lexicon of the speech engine to include the pronunciation rule. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20100324889 | ENABLING GLOBAL GRAMMARS FOR A PARTICULAR MULTIMODAL APPLICATION - Methods, apparatus, and computer program products are described for enabling global grammars for a particular multimodal application according to the present invention by loading a multimodal web page; determining whether the loaded multimodal web page is one of a plurality of multimodal web pages of the particular multimodal application. If the loaded multimodal web page is one of the plurality of multimodal web pages of the particular multimodal application, enabling global grammars typically includes loading any currently unloaded global grammars of the particular multimodal application identified in the multimodal web page and maintaining any previously loaded global grammars. If the loaded multimodal web page is not one of the plurality of multimodal web pages of the particular multimodal application, enabling global grammars typically includes unloading any currently loaded global grammars. | 12-23-2010 |
