A method of classifying and collecting feature information of an area according to a robot's moving path, a robot controlled by area features, and a method and apparatus for composing a user interface using the area features are disclosed. The robot includes a plurality of sensor modules to collect feature information of a predetermined area along a moving path of the robot, and an analyzer to analyze the collected feature information of the predetermined area according to a predetermined reference range and to classify the collected feature information into a plurality of groups.

Method, medium and apparatus classifying and collecting area feature information according to a robot's moving path, and a robot controlled by the area features

A method and apparatus for providing multimedia data using an event index are provided. The method includes; to detect a biometric signal of a user when the user captures a multimedia data, digitize the detected biometric signal and indexing the multimedia data using the result of the digitization, and selectively edit the indexed multimedia data and playing back the result of the selectively editing. Accordingly, it is possible to facilitate the management of moving data files by indexing part of a moving data corresponding to an emotional event of a user who has captured the moving data, editing the moving data according to the results of the indexing, and playing back the edited moving data to provide a preview of the moving data.

Method and apparatus for providing multimedia data using event index

An automated mobile operating method, medium, mobile system, and mobile phone extracting a pattern of operation of a mobile device based on operational data for the mobile device, comparing the pattern and the operational data of the mobile device to determine whether the pattern is a new pattern not previously recognized for the mobile system, and initiating a dialogue with the user to record information for the new pattern or determining whether to initiate a dialogue with the user regarding the pattern based on an element of a corresponding rule being met for the pattern, and performing the dialogue with the user, when initiated, requesting guidance on implementation of an operation of the mobile device based on the pattern. The initiating of the dialogue may be delayed based upon an operational state of the mobile device, and the delaying may be overridden based upon an urgency of the dialogue.

System, method, and medium for managing conversational user interface according to usage pattern for portable operation

A data input apparatus, medium, and method detecting a selected data key input. The data input apparatus may include an image output module, an image input module, and a control module, with the image output module generating an input image having a predetermined number of input keys for the input of data. The image input module may capture the generated input image, and the control module may then binarize the captured images of the respective input keys, e.g., using a predetermined threshold value. Accordingly, the proper selection of input keys can be determined by comparing the binarized images with previously stored binarized images.

Data input apparatus, medium, and method detecting selective data input

A system, method and medium editing a moving picture using biometric signals is provided. The system includes a biometric signal generation module to measure signals that reflect an emotional state of a user while capturing a moving picture, and to generate a first and a second biometric signal based on the measured signals, an event section extraction module to extract a first event section that reflects preferences of the user from a playback section of the moving picture based on the first biometric signal, extract a second event section that reflects preferences of the user from the playback section of the moving picture based on a second biometric signal, and extract a final event section based on the first and second event sections, and an indexing module to edit the moving picture by indexing the final event section in synchronization with the playback section of the moving picture.

An apparatus and method to check whether a user likes a multimedia file based on the user's emotional reaction index of the multimedia file and repeatedly reproducing the multimedia file if the user likes the multimedia file. The multimedia file reproducing apparatus can include an emotional reaction index calculation unit to calculate an emotional reaction index based on a physical reaction signal of a user; a like/dislike checking unit to check whether the user likes or dislikes a corresponding audio file based on the calculated emotional reaction index; a list generation unit to generate a list of audio files that the user likes based on an average of emotional reaction indices for each audio file and the user's preference for each audio file; and a reproduction management unit to control the reproduction of the corresponding audio file based on whether the user likes or dislikes the corresponding audio file and to reproduce the audio files in the generated list.

Multimedia file reproducing apparatus and method

A method and apparatus for enhancing the performance of speech recognition by adaptively changing a process of determining the final, recognized word depending on a user's selection in a list of alternative words represented by a result of speech recognition. A speech recognition method comprising: inputting speech uttered by a user; recognizing the input speech and creating a predetermined number of alternative words to be recognized in the order of similarity; and displaying a list of alternative words arranged in a predetermined order and determining an alternative word that a cursor currently indicates as the final, recognized word if a user's selection from the list of alternative words has not been changed within a predetermined standby time.
