Abstract

A data recovery system for a telephonic device based on the formulation of a search query from a word or words recognized during a telephone conversation and the retrieval of a data item based on such search query. In one embodiment, the data recovery system includes (1) a speech recognition subsystem for recognizing at least one spoken word and formulating a search query while the telephonic device is in use; and (2) a search subsystem for using the search query to search available data and create a hyperlink to a data item.

Claims

1. A data recovery system for a telephonic device, comprising:

a speech recognition subsystem for recognizing at least one spoken word and formulating a search query while said telephonic device is in use; and

a search subsystem for using said search query to search available data and create a hyperlink to a data item.

2. The data recovery system as recited in claim 1 wherein said telephonic device is a mobile phone.

3. The data recovery system as recited in claim 1 wherein said available data is within said telephonic device.

4. The data recovery system as recited in claim 1 wherein said available data is not within said telephonic device.

5. The data recovery system as recited in claim 4 wherein said available data is accessed via a network.

6. The data recovery system as recited in claim 5 wherein said network is the Internet.

7. The data recovery system as recited in claim 1 further comprising said speech recognition subsystem recognizing a plurality of spoken words.

8. The data recovery system as recited in claim 7 wherein said speech recognition subsystem formulates said search query by eliminating certain predetermined trivial or common words.

9. The data recovery system as recited in claim 1 wherein said search query is revised while said telephonic device is in use.

10. The data recovery system as recited in claim 1 wherein a document is displayed when said hyperlink is selected.

11. A method of using a data recovery system for a telephonic device, comprising:

causing a speech recognition subsystem to recognize at least one spoken word and formulate a search query while said telephonic device is in use; and

causing a search subsystem to use said search query to search available data and create a hyperlink to a data item.

12. The method as recited in claim 11 wherein said telephonic device is a mobile phone.

13. The method as recited in claim 11 wherein said available data is within said telephonic device.

14. The method as recited in claim 11 wherein said available data is not within said telephonic device.

15. The method as recited in claim 14 wherein said available data is accessed via a network.

16. The method as recited in claim 15 wherein said network is the Internet.

17. The method as recited in claim 11 further comprising said speech recognition subsystem recognizing a plurality of spoken words.

18. The method as recited in claim 17 wherein said speech recognition subsystem formulates said search query by eliminating certain predetermined short or common words.

19. The method as recited in claim 18 wherein said search query is revised while said telephonic device is in use.

20. The method as recited in claim 11 wherein a document containing said data is displayed when said hyperlink is selected.
