First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method in a communication network for personalizing a service, comprising the steps of:
- generating user dependant language models by a speech recognition system,storing said user dependant language models,making said user dependant language models, and/or a user profile derived from said user dependant language models, available to a software application running in a user'"'"'s device and/or available to external service providers, for personalizing an aspect of a service unrelated to speech processing,using a microphone of a user end device of said user for gathering ambient speech material outside normal use of said user end device for voice or data communications with external devices, andusing said ambient speech material for adapting said user dependant language models.

Abstract
Method for building a multimodal business channel between users, service providers and network operators. The service provided to the users is personalized with a user'"'"'s profile derived from language and speech models delivered by a speech recognition system. The language and speech models are synchronized with user dependent language models stored in a central platform made accessible to various value added service providers. They may also be copied into various devices of the user. Natural language processing algorithms may be used for extracting topics from user'"'"'s dialogues.

34. A method used in a communication system for building a user profile with information about the interests and/or habits and/or preferences of the user, said method comprising the steps of:
-
generating user dependant language models by a speech recognition system, deriving a user profile from said user dependant language models, and providing a communication interface for transmitting at least a portion of said user profile to a provider computer.
-
-
35. A method used in a communication system for building a centrally stored user profile with information about the interests and/or habits and/or preferences of the user, said method comprising the steps of:
-
generating user dependant language models by a speech recognition system in a user device, deriving a user profile from said user dependant language models, synchronising said user dependant language models and/or user profiles with a central database of language models and/or user profiles remotely stored in a server, and providing a communications interface for providing access to said language models and/or user profiles by external service provider computers for personalising services to the users.

-
36. A communication system in a communication network comprising:
-
a speech recognition system for generating a plurality of user dependant language models; means for storing said user dependant language models; and a communications interface for providing an external service provider and/or an application running in a user'"'"'s device access to said user dependant language models, and/or a user profile derived from said user dependant language models for personalizing an aspect of a service unrelated to speech processing.

37. A method in a communication network for personalizing a service, comprising the steps of:
-
generating user dependent language models by a speech recognition system, storing said user dependent language models; deriving from said user dependent language models a personalize list of semantic expressions; and providing a communications interface for making at least a portion of said list available to an application running in a user'"'"'s device and/or available to external service providers for personalizing an aspect of a service unrelated to speech processing.

-
38. A communication system in a communication network comprising:
-
a speech recognition system for generating a plurality of user dependent language models; means for storing said user dependent language models; means for deriving from said user dependent language models a personalized list of semantic expressions; and means a communications interface for providing an external service provider and/or an application running in a user'"'"'s device access to receive at least a portion of said list for personalizing an aspect of a service unrelated to speech processing.

-
39. A method in a communication network for personalizing a service, comprising the steps of:
-
generating user dependent language models by speech recognition system, storing said user dependent language models in a platform, providing an interface to said communication network for making said user dependent language models and/or a user profile comprising for each user a personalized list of semantic expressions derived from said user dependent language models available over a communication network to an external service provider, and using said user dependent language models and/or user profile for personalizing a service provided by said external service provider.
