System and method of supporting adaptive misrecognition in conversational speech
First Claim
1. A system for processing speech and non-speech communications, comprising:
- a terminal device that receives the speech and the non-speech communications;
a transcription module that transcribes the speech and the non-speech communications to create a speech-based textual message and a non-speech-based textual message;
a merging module that merges the speech-based textual message and the non-speech-based textual message to generate a query;
an analyzer that accesses information associated with the query to enhance query recognition; and
an adaptive misrecognition analysis engine that monitors actions corresponding to the query and classifies the query as recognized, not recognized or incorrectly recognized.

Abstract
A system and method are provided for receiving speech and/or non-speech communications of natural language questions and/or commands and executing the questions and/or commands. The invention provides a conversational human-machine interface that includes a conversational speech analyzer, a general cognitive model, an environmental model, and a personalized cognitive model to determine context, domain knowledge, and invoke prior information to interpret a spoken utterance or a received non-spoken message. The system and method creates, stores and uses extensive personal profile information for each user, thereby improving the reliability of determining the context of the speech or non-speech communication and presenting the expected results for a particular question or command.
