Patent ID: 11869494
Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 6:
7. A system for generating distinguishable data, comprising:
a memory storing computer instructions; and
a processor configured to execute the computer instructions, stored in the memory, to:
process input data into a plurality of elements;
calculate distinguishability of the plurality of elements using phonetic vowels;
determine distinguishable elements from among the plurality of elements for speech recognition, according to the distinguishability calculation; providing an output based on the determining; and
controlling a device based on the output,

wherein the input data comprises a plurality of words parsed from the input data, and
wherein the determining of the distinguishable elements includes determining which words when paired together are phonetically distinguishable using the phonetic vowels to output distinguishable words,
wherein the calculating of distinguishability includes calculating using clustering based on vowel saliency, comprising:
generating a phonetic transcription for each word;
calculating a corner vowel partial overlap of the plurality of words;
calculating a strong vowel partial overlap of the plurality of words;
determining the distinguishable words based on the calculations of the corner vowel partial overlap and the strong vowel partial overlap;
using the output from the processor to create a machine control grammar; and
controlling a robot via a voice command using the created machine control grammar.
