Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2000506995
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A system and method for identifying the phoneme sound types that are contained within an audio speech signal is disclosed. The system includes a microphone (12) and associated conditioning circuitry (14), for receiving an audio speech signal and converting it to a representative electrical signal. The electrical signal is then sampled and converted to a digital audio signal with a digital-to-analog converter (34). The digital audio signal is input to a programmable digital sound processor (18), which digitally processes the sound so as to extract various time domain and frequency domain sound characteristics. These characteristics are input to a programmable host sound processor (20) which compares the sound characteristics to standard sound data. Based on this comparison, the host sound processor (20) identifies the specific phoneme sounds that are contained within the audio speech signal. The programmable host sound processor (20) further includes linguistic processing program methods to convert the phoneme sounds into English words or other natural language words. These words are input to a host processor (22), which then utilizes the words as either data or commands.
