| 20110114843 | RADIATION DETECTOR AND METHOD OF USING A RADIATION DETECTOR - A radiation detector can include a scintillating material to produce scintillation light in response to receiving neutrons, gamma radiation, potentially other targeted radiation, or any combination thereof. In a particular embodiment, the detector converts scintillating light to an electrical pulse and analyzes the shape of the electrical pulse to determine whether neutrons, gamma rays, or potentially other targeted radiation are detected. The detector can be configured to distinguish between neutrons and gamma rays. The scintillating material can extend over a length greater than approximately 1.1 meters. In an embodiment, the radiation detector can be used near a passageway to detect radioactive material passing through the passageway. More particularly, the radiation detector can be used to detect the radioactive material within a vehicle passing through the passageway. | 05-19-2011 |
| 20120132823 | RADIATION DETECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD OF ANALYZING AN ELECTRICAL PULSE OUTPUT BY A RADIATION DETECTOR - A radiation detection system can include a photo sensor to receive light from a scintillator via an input and to send an electrical pulse at an output in response to receiving the light. The radiation detection system can also include a pulse analyzer that can determine whether the electrical pulse corresponds to a neutron-induced pulse, based on a ratio of an integral of a particular portion of the electrical pulse to an integral of a combination of a decay portion and a rise portion of the electrical pulse. Each of the integrals can be integrated over time. In a particular embodiment, the pulse analyzer can be configured to compare the ratio with a predetermined value and to identify the electrical pulse as a neutron-induced pulse when the ratio is at least the predetermined value. | 05-31-2012 |

| 20120232898 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF PROVIDING AN AUTOMATED DATA-COLLECTION IN SPOKEN DIALOG SYSTEMS - The invention relates to a system and method for gathering data for use in a spoken dialog system. An aspect of the invention is generally referred to as an automated hidden human that performs data collection automatically at the beginning of a conversation with a user in a spoken dialog system.

| 20080270130 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REDUCING ANNOTATION TIME - Systems and methods for annotating speech data. The present invention reduces the time required to annotate speech data by selecting utterances for annotation that will be of greatest benefit. A selection module uses speech models, including speech recognition models and spoken language understanding models, to identify utterances that should be annotated based on criteria such as confidence scores generated by the models. These utterances are placed in an annotation list along with a type of annotation to be performed for the utterances and an order in which the annotation should proceed. The utterances in the annotation list can be annotated for speech recognition purposes, spoken language understanding purposes, labeling purposes, etc. The selection module can also select utterances for annotation based on previously annotated speech data and deficiencies in the various models. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20100042404 | METHOD FOR BUILDING A NATURAL LANGUAGE UNDERSTANDING MODEL FOR A SPOKEN DIALOG SYSTEM - A method of generating a natural language model for use in a spoken dialog system is disclosed. The method comprises using sample utterances and creating a number of hand crafted rules for each call-type defined in a labeling guide. A first NLU model is generated and tested using the hand crafted rules and sample utterances. A second NLU model is built using the sample utterances as new training data and using the hand crafted rules. The second NLU model is tested for performance using a first batch of labeled data. A series of NLU models are built by adding a previous batch of labeled data to training data and using a new batch of labeling data as test data to generate the series of NLU models with training data that increases constantly. If not all the labeling data is received, the method comprises repeating the step of building a series of NLU models until all labeling data is received. After all the training data is received, at least once, the method comprises building a third NLU model using all the labeling data, wherein the third NLU model is used in generating the spoken dialog service. | 02-18-2010 |
