System And Method For Storing And Retrieving Non-Text-Based Information

View page
US Patent:
7788279, Aug 31, 2010
Filed:
Nov 9, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/558366
Inventors:
Keyvan Mohajer - Saratoga CA, US
Majid Emami - Saratoga CA, US
Michal Grabowski - Solon OH, US
James M. Hom - Long Beach CA, US
Assignee:
SoundHound, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G06F 17/30
US Classification:
707772, 707999001, 707999003, 707999005, 707999102, 707999107
Abstract:
A method for non-text-based identification of a selected item of stored music. The first broad portion of the method focuses on building a music identification database. That process requires capturing a tag of the selected musical item, and processing the tag to develop reference key to the same. Then the tag is stored, together with the reference key and an association to the stored music. The database is built by collecting a multiplicity of tags. The second broad portion of the method is retrieving a desired item of stored music from the database. That process calls for capturing a query tag from a user, and processing the query tag to develop a query key to the same. The query tag is compared to reference keys stored in the database to identify the desired item of stored music.

Displaying Text To End Users In Coordination With Audio Playback

View page
US Patent:
8433431, Apr 30, 2013
Filed:
Feb 13, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/372399
Inventors:
Aaron Master - Palo Alto CA, US
Kamyar Mohajer - San Jose CA, US
Keyvan Mohajer - Los Gatos CA, US
Timothy P. Stonehocker - Sunnyvale CA, US
Bernard Mont-Reynaud - Sunnyvale CA, US
Assignee:
Soundhound, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G06F 17/00
US Classification:
700 94, 715727
Abstract:
Technologies described relate to coordination between audio and tracking of the corresponding text in an audio recognition mode and an audio playback mode. Optionally, audio recognition includes receiving a signal corresponding to an audio track; determining an identity of the audio track and a current audio position within the audio track; displaying on a display a portion of a text that is linked and synchronized to the audio track identified and automatically scrolling the portion of the text displayed in pace with the audio track playing; and displaying a current text indicator that emphasizes current text, wherein the current text indicator is visually synchronized on the display to current audio playing from the audio track. Optionally include redetermining the current audio position in the audio track from the signal received and updating synchronization of the current text indicator with the current audio playing.

System And Method For Producing Scored Search Results On A Database Using Approximate Search Queries

View page
US Patent:
20080082530, Apr 3, 2008
Filed:
Jul 17, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/778752
Inventors:
Michal Grabowski - Solon OH, US
Majid Emami - Saratoga CA, US
James Hom - Long Beach CA, US
Keyvan Mohajer - Saratoga CA, US
Assignee:
Melodis Corporation - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
G06F 17/30
US Classification:
707006000, 707E17039
Abstract:
A method for searching a database to produce search results from queries likely to contain errors. The process begins by identifying database features likely to be useful in searching, and those features are employed to index the database. After receiving a query from a user, the system develops a rough score for the query, by extracting features from the query, assigning match scores to query features matching database features; and assigning approximation scores to query features amenable to approximation analysis with database features. The rough score is used to identify identifying a set of database records for further analysis. Those records are then subjected to a more detailed rescoring process, based on correspondence between individual query elements and individual record elements, and between the query and the database record content, taken as a whole. Based on the rescoring process, output is provided to the user.

Pitch Dependent Speech Recognition Engine

View page
US Patent:
20080167862, Jul 10, 2008
Filed:
Jan 8, 2008
Appl. No.:
11/971070
Inventors:
Keyvan Mohajer - Saratoga CA, US
Assignee:
Melodis Corporation - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
G10L 11/04
US Classification:
704207
Abstract:
A method for employing pitch in a speech recognition engine. The process begins by building training models of selected speech samples, a process which begins by analyzing each sample as a sequential series of frames, each frame having a selected duration and overlap with adjacent frames. A pitch estimate of each frame is detected and recorded, and the pitch data is normalized, and the speech recognition parameters of the model are determined, after which the model is stored. Models are stored and updated for each of the set of training samples. The system is then employed to recognizing the speech content of a subject, which begins by analyzing the subject as a sequential series of frames, each frame having a selected duration and overlap with adjacent frames. A pitch estimate for each frame is detected and recorded, and the pitch data is normalized. Speech recognition techniques are then employed to recognize the content of the subject, employing the stored models.

G10L 15/14
US Classification:
704254, 704257, 7042561, 704E15005, 704E1502, 704E15029
Abstract:
The technology disclosed relates to a system and method for fast, accurate and parallelizable speech search, called Crystal Decoder. It is particularly useful for search applications, as opposed to dictation. It can achieve both speed and accuracy, without sacrificing one for the other. It can search different variations of records in the reference database without a significant increase in elapsed processing time. Even the main decoding part can be parallelized as the number of words increase to maintain a fast response time.

US Patent:
20120029670, Feb 2, 2012
Filed:
Jul 28, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/193514
Inventors:
Bernard Mont-Reynaud - Sunnyvale CA, US
Aaron Master - Mountain View CA, US
Timothy P. Stonehocker - Sunnyvale CA, US
Keyvan Mohajer - Saratoga CA, US
Assignee:
SoundHound, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G06F 17/00
US Classification:
700 94
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the continuous monitoring of an audio signal and identification of audio items within an audio signal. The technology disclosed utilizes predictive caching of fingerprints to improve efficiency. Fingerprints are cached for tracking an audio signal with known alignment and for watching an audio signal without known alignment, based on already identified fingerprints extracted from the audio signal. Software running on a smart phone or other battery-powered device cooperates with software running on an audio identification server.
