A visibility improvement method using gaze tracking includes detecting a gaze of a user using a camera; determining a focus object at which the user gazes from among at least one object viewed through a display unit of an electronic device; and displaying, on the display unit, an image with high visibility that corresponds to the focus object and has higher visibility than the focus object.

Visibility improvement method based on eye tracking, machine-readable storage medium and electronic device

A method and apparatus for improving the performance of voice recognition in a mobile device are provided. The method of recognizing a voice includes: monitoring the usage pattern of a user of a device for inputting a voice; selecting predetermined words from among words stored in the device based on the result of monitoring, and storing the selected words; and recognizing a voice based on an acoustic model and predetermined words. In this way, a voice can be recognized by using prediction of whom the user mainly makes a call to. Also, by automatically modeling the device usage pattern of the user and applying the pattern to vocabulary for voice recognition based on probabilities, the performance of voice recognition, as actually felt by the user, can be enhanced.

Method and apparatus for speech recognition using device usage pattern of user

A speech recognition apparatus and method that can improve speech recognition rate and recognition speed by reflecting information for dynamic display, are provided. The speech recognition apparatus generates a display variation signal indicating that variations have occurred on a screen and creates display information about the varied screen. The speech recognition apparatus adjusts a word weight for at least one word related to the varied screen and a domain weight for at least one domain included in the varied screen, according to the display variation signal and the display information. The adjusted word weight and the adjusted domain weight are dynamically reflected in a language model that is used for speech recognition.

Method and apparatus for recognizing speech according to dynamic display

Provided are a method and apparatus for providing a mobile voice web service in a mobile terminal. The method includes analyzing a web history of a user from web search logs of the user and generating a voice access list based on the analysis results, and performing voice recognition by dynamically generating a voice recognition syntax according to the generated voice access list. Accordingly, by limiting syntax required for voice recognition by generating a syntax suitable for a web context of the user, efficient voice recognition, which can be performed in a terminal not a server, can be implemented.

Method, medium and apparatus for providing mobile voice web service

A speech recognition apparatus is provided. The speech recognition apparatus includes a primary speech recognition unit configured to perform speech recognition on input speech and thus to generate word lattice information, a word string generation unit configured to generate one or more word strings based on the word lattice information, a language model score calculation unit configured to calculate bidirectional language model scores of the generated word strings selectively using forward and backward language models for each of words in each of the generated word strings, and a sentence output unit configured to output one or more of the generated word strings with high scores as results of the speech recognition of the input speech based on the calculated bidirectional language model scores.

Speech recognition apparatus and method

An apparatus and method for generating an avatar based video message are provided. The apparatus and method are capable of generating an avatar based video message based on speech of a user. The avatar based video message apparatus and method displays information that corresponds to input user speech. The avatar based video message apparatus and method edits the input user speech according to a user input signal with reference to the displayed information, generates avatar animation according to the edited speech, and generates an avatar based video message based on the edited speech and the avatar animation.

Apparatus and method for generating avatar based video message

A method of and apparatus for detecting noise are provided. The method of detecting noise includes: receiving an input of a voice frame and converting the voice frame into a filter bank vector; converting the converted filter bank vector into band data; calculating a weight Gaussian mixture model (GMM) for each band by using the converted band data; and detecting noise in the voice frame based on the calculation result.

Method and apparatus for detecting noise

An apparatus and method for recognizing voice. The apparatus includes a feature vector extraction unit dividing an input voice signal into predetermined unit regions, and extracting feature vectors corresponding to each of the unit regions; a predicted node extraction unit extracting a list of second nodes whose travels to a first node corresponding to the extracted feature vectors are predicted, with reference to a network of one or more nodes; a single waveform similarity calculation unit calculating degrees of single waveform similarity of the first node and the second nodes of the list by substituting the extracted feature vectors into single waveform probability distributions that constitute voice signals corresponding to the second nodes; a multiple waveform similarity calculation unit calculating degrees of multiple waveform similarity by substituting the extracted feature vectors into multiple waveform probability distributions that constitute single waveform probability distributions usable to calculate the degrees of single waveform similarity in a preset range; and an output unit outputting a function-performing signal corresponding to a multiple waveform probability distribution that enables calculation of a highest of the calculated degrees of multiple waveform similarity.

Apparatus and method for recognizing voice

Provided are a method and apparatus for automatically completing a text input using speech recognition. The method includes: receiving a first part of a text from a user through a text input device; recognizing a speech of the user, which corresponds to the text; and completing a remaining part of the text based on the first part of the text and the recognized speech. Therefore, accuracy of the text input and convenience of the speech recognition can be ensured, and a non-input part of the text can be easily input based on the input part of the text and the recognized speech at a high speed.
