Title: Chih-Chung Kuo: Innovator in Speech Recognition Technology

Introduction

Chih-Chung Kuo is a prominent inventor based in Hsinchu, Taiwan. He has made significant contributions to the field of speech recognition technology, holding a total of 17 patents. His work focuses on developing advanced systems and methods that enhance the accuracy and efficiency of speech recognition.

Latest Patents

Among his latest innovations are two notable patents. The first is a speech recognition system, method, and computer program product that connects to an external general-purpose speech recognition system. This system includes a storage unit and a processing unit, where the storage unit houses a specific application speech recognition module, a comparison module, and an enhancement module. The specific application speech recognition module converts a speech signal into a first phonetic text, while the general-purpose speech recognition system converts the speech signal into written text. The comparison module aligns the two texts based on pronunciation similarity, resulting in a phonetic text alignment output. The enhancement module then constructs the recognized text using the aligned phonetic text and written text.

The second patent involves a vocabulary establishing method and computer program product. This method includes storing a speech recognition model with speech-units and basic components of acoustic models. It processes first and second speech signals to recognize the first speech signal according to the speech recognition model and outputs a recognition result. The method also selects and updates the optimal components of the acoustic models based on the recognition results.
