20120083910 | PROGRESSIVE ENCODING OF AUDIO - The present disclosure includes processing a signal to generate a first sub-set of data, transmitting the first sub-set of data for generation of a reconstructed audio signal, the reconstructed audio signal having a fidelity relative to the signal, processing the signal to generate a second sub-set of data and a third sub-set of data, the second sub-set of data defining a second portion of the signal and comprising data that is different than data of the first sub-set of data, and the third sub-set of data defining a third portion of the signal and comprising data that is different than data of the first and second sub-sets of data, comparing a priority of the second sub-set of data to a priority of the third sub-set of data, and transmitting one of the second sub-set of data and the third sub-set of data over the network for improving the fidelity. | 04-05-2012 |
20120084089 | PROGRESSIVE ENCODING OF AUDIO - The present disclosure includes processing a signal to generate a first sub-set of data, transmitting the first sub-set of data for generation of a reconstructed audio signal, the reconstructed audio signal having a fidelity relative to the signal, processing the signal to generate a second sub-set of data and a third sub-set of data, the second sub-set of data defining a second portion of the signal and comprising data that is different than data of the first sub-set of data, and the third sub-set of data defining a third portion of the signal and comprising data that is different than data of the first and second sub-sets of data, comparing a priority of the second sub-set of data to a priority of the third sub-set of data, and transmitting one of the second sub-set of data and the third sub-set of data over the network for improving the fidelity. | 04-05-2012 |
20140067366 | TECHNIQUES FOR SELECTING LANGUAGES FOR AUTOMATIC SPEECH RECOGNITION - A computer-implemented technique includes receiving, at a computing device including one or more processors, a touch input from a user. The touch input includes (i) a spot input indicating a request to provide a speech input to the computing device followed by (ii) a slide input indicating a desired language for automatic speech recognition of the speech input. The technique includes receiving, at the computing device, the speech input from the user. The technique includes obtaining, at the computing device, one or more recognized characters resulting from automatic speech recognition of the speech input using the desired language. The technique also includes outputting, at the computing device, the one or more recognized characters. | 03-06-2014 |
20140163952 | CONVERSION OF INPUT TEXT STRINGS - Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for transforming text strings. In general, one aspect of the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in methods that include the actions of receiving input string having a plurality of terms, the input string being in a first form; transforming the input string from the first form to a second form including: applying one or more rules to the input string to identify one or more terms for translation, the one or more identified terms being fewer than the plurality of terms, translating the identified one or more terms to one or more translated terms in the second form, and transliterating the remaining terms of the plurality of terms into transliterated terms in the second form; and concatenating the translated and transliterated terms to form a hybrid output string in the second form. | 06-12-2014 |
