Method for training an automatic speech recognition system
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, at a first server computing device via a network, a far-talk signal from a far-talk computing device having at least one processor, the far-talk signal transmitted using a first channel and corresponding to an audible sound of a user, wherein the network is at least one of the Internet or a local area network;
receiving, at the first server computing device via the network, a near-talk signal from a near-talk computing device having at least one processor, the near-talk signal transmitted using a second channel and corresponding to the audible sound of the user, wherein the far-talk signal and the near-talk signal are received during an enrollment phase of a far-talk speech recognition system; and
updating, at the first server computing device, one or more voice models associated with a far-talk speech recognition system that best match a speech pattern of the user with the one or more voice models utilizing, at least in part, one or more characteristics of the far-talk signal and one or more characteristics of the near-talk signal.

Abstract
A system and method for speech recognition is provided. Embodiments may include receiving, at a first computing device, a far-talk signal from a far-talk computing device, the far-talk signal transmitted using a first channel and corresponding to an audible sound. Embodiments may further include receiving, at the first computing device, a near-talk signal from a near-talk computing device, the near-talk signal transmitted using a second channel and corresponding to the audible sound, wherein the far-talk signal and the near-talk signal are received during an enrollment phase of a far-talk speech recognition system. Embodiments may also include updating, at the first computing device, one or more models associated with a far-talk speech recognition system based upon, at least in part, one or more characteristics of the far-talk signal and one or more characteristics of the near-talk signal.

21. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
transmitting, via a network, a far-talk signal from a far-talk computing device having at least one processor to a server computing device, the far-talk signal transmitted using a first channel and corresponding to an audible sound of a user, wherein the network is at least one of the Internet or a local area network; transmitting, via the network, a near-talk signal from a near-talk computing device having at least one processor to a server computing device, the near-talk signal transmitted using a second channel and corresponding to the audible sound of the user, wherein the far-talk signal and the near-talk signal are received during an enrollment phase of a far-talk speech recognition system; and updating, by the server computing device, one or more voice models associated with a far-talk speech recognition system that best match a speech pattern of the user with the one or more voice models utilizing, at least in part, one or more characteristics of the far-talk signal and one or more characteristics of the near-talk signal.
