First Claim
1. A system for assisting note-taking of an utterance of a speaker, comprising:
- a terminal for note-takers that is used by a note-taker who performs the note-taking; and
an information delivery device that transmits speech data of the utterance to the terminal,wherein the information delivery device includes;

a data processing unit that determines, for every allocated time period that is allocated to the note-taker, whether the breathing section exists in a range that is based on an end point of the allocated time period, and generates, in a case where the breathing section exists in the range, speech data of the utterance from a start point of the allocated time period until the breathing section, and, in a case where the breathing section does not exist in the range, speech data of the utterance from the start point until the end point of the allocated time period; and
a data transmission unit that transmits the speech data generated by the data processing unit to the terminal of the note-taker to whom the allocated time period is allocated, andthe terminal for note-takers includes;
a data reception unit that receives the speech data transmitted from the information delivery device;
an input unit that accepts input of text data that is input in correspondence to the speech data; and
a data transmission unit that transmits the text data whose input was accepted to a terminal for users that is used by a user of the note-taking,wherein the information delivery device and the terminal are realized by a computer, wherein in the computer realizing the information delivery device, a CPU of the computer functions as the breathing detection unit, the data processing unit, and data transmission unit, wherein in the computer realizing the terminal, a CPU of the computer functions as the data reception unit, the input unit, and the data transmission unit.

Abstract
A note-taker terminal (200) and an information delivery device (100) are used. The information delivery device (100) includes a breathing detection unit (104) that specifies breathing sections from silent sections of uttered speech, a data processing unit (105) that determines, for every allocated time period of a note-taker, whether a breathing section exists in a range based on an end point of the allocated time period, and generates, if a breathing section exists, speech data of the utterance from a start point of the allocated time period until the breathing section, and, if a breathing section does not exist, speech data of the utterance from the start point until the end point of the allocated time period, and a data transmission unit (106) that transmits the speech data to the note-taker terminal (200). The note-taker terminal (200) receives the speech data, and transmits input text data to a user terminal (300) of a note-taking user.

6. A note-taking assistance method for assisting note-taking using a terminal for note-takers that is used by a note-taker who performs note-taking of an utterance of a speaker and an information delivery device that transmits speech data of the utterance to the terminal, comprising the steps of:
-
(a) using the information delivery device to specify silent sections from speech of the utterance, and specify a silent section that satisfies a set condition, among the specified silent sections, as a breathing section of the speaker; (b) using the information delivery device to determine, for every allocated time period that is allocated to the note-taker, whether the breathing section exists in a range that is based on an end point of the allocated time period, and generate, in a case where the breathing section exists in the range, speech data of the utterance from a start point of the allocated time period until the breathing section, and, in a case where the breathing section does not exist in the range, speech data of the utterance from the start point until the end point of the allocated time period; (c) using the information delivery device to transmit the speech data generated in the step (b) to the terminal of the note-taker to whom the allocated time period is allocated; (d) using the terminal for note-takers to receive the speech data transmitted from the information delivery device; (e) using the terminal for note-takers to accept input of text data that is input in correspondence to the speech data; and (f) using the terminal for note-takers to transmit the text data whose input was accepted in the step (e) to a terminal for users that is used by a user of the note-taking.
