The team agreed that it was important to keep good backups. Their main concern was the time difference between getting more disks and recording new meetings. They did not want to rely on burning CD's at all because of potential loss of data. They also started discussing whether it would be a good idea to collect meeting notes from the participants as well, but that would entail installing new infrastructure.

Grad G thought that it would be helpful to let the participants conveniently bleep things out during the meeting. While synchronizing bleeps from during the meeting would require some infrastructure, a faster version could be set up. Though, G did think that the synchronization infrastructure would be a useful addition.

The meeting discussed the progress of the transcription, the DARPA demos, tools to ensure meeting data quality, data standardization, backup tools, and collecting tangential meeting information. The team was making good progress on the transcription but was still concerned with correcting some of the data. Besides that, they were working on adapting the THISL GUI for their project and figuring out visual tools for meeting participants to help them know when their recording equipment was failing. The team also discussed collecting additional information, like laughter and breath data as well as meeting notes.

Some members on the team were working on low-pass down-sampling as a replacement for LDA filters. Low-pass seemed to perform better, but the team was uncertain about its robustness. The professor thought that the team should submit something to Eurospeech and that they should further study reverberation. The professor thought that studying spectrograms would be a good place to start. The team then discussed VAD and line mean normalization as techniques for getting rid of noise. The meeting ended with a brief discussion on feature detection.

Derivatives were not discussed with Jose but other possibilities were explored. First that log energy is basically compressing the distances. Another is that he needs to assess the different temporal sizes . He is taking everything over two hundred milliseconds and varying that number. He is also considering moving windows , as previously discussed. He is measuring at the frame level.

Professor C said the basic hypothesis and starting point is if you examine the energy when two people are speaking at the same time , usually {there 'll be more energy than when one is. Coming up with a measure which will match this intuition is the next step. These energy features should be fed into a discriminative system. It is important to pick a normalization that matches the distribution for that feature.

According to User Interface, most remote controls had an inconsistent layout, thus was difficult to use. Also, they were mostly in boring shape, grey and quite space-agey with too many buttons. Therefore, after discussion, the team decided to avoid those flaws they had discovered. Basically, the new designs would be with programmability function, organic shape and consistent layout.

In general, the team only collected the flaws of the existing remotes. According to the User Interface, the existing remotes were difficult to use because of the inconsistent layout, too many buttons and shape problems. For each problem, the team tried to give the solution. For example, their new remotes would have a standard layout, limited buttons and organic shapes. It was believed that by solving all these problems, the new remotes would be easy for the customers to use.

The User Interface showed the pictures of one kind of remotes with scrolls on it, working as the middle buttons. If the consumers wanted to find a certain item, they just needed to scroll it and when they reached the required ones, they pressed the middle of the scroll. Although the team was not satisfied with the colour, shape and buttons of the existing, they all agreed that the function of a scroll was a good idea.

The Industrial Designer first proposed to use the shape of a banana. However, the Project Manager thought it might be a little bit childish. Then, the User Interface suggested drawing on the kind of fruits and vegetable shape. After a period of discussion, the team decided to design two or three shapes and had a public survey, letting the public choose what they want.

Answer:

Unlike the last meeting, the team further discussed the details about the features they wanted on their new remote controls this time. First, they unanimously agreed that their design shall be the combination of beauty and fashion. Second, after looking at all the other designs existing in the market now, they drew a conclusion that the new remotes would be standardly shaped and children-friendly. Lastly, most of the time was devoted to the discussion about the details of the desired features: rechargeable battery, blue main body and yellow slogan, fruits based shapes and sponge latex rubber material.

The log magnitude spectral subtraction used twelve seconds from the past and future to calculate the mean. The short window did not have a big effect on the model performance, which was much desired. The silence, for the most part, had been cut out to make the model more effective. The professor added that the system was similar to caching utterances.

The professor suggested that the model essentially improved performance after the first utterance as it had more data. There was a higher error probability for the first utterance. This issue could potentially be resolved using a second-pass system, in which the initial utterance was processed differently.

The meeting began with a short introduction to Hans Guenter, who was arriving soon and would be visiting for a few weeks. The team then discussed integrating mean log magnitude spectral subtraction into the SmartKom system. It seemed, however, that lengthening the time for this task was not very effective. The team also learned more about Wiener filtering which worked well when mixed with other approaches. It was almost as effective as the best systems. The team then delved into spectral subtraction and discussed the various ways in which it could be refined. The meeting ended with comments on the additional latency that was caused by this method.

Because User Interface thought there should be a turnaround time between product evaluation and its formal release. User Interface believed that many products had been released to the market without being properly user-tested and didn't receive positive results, so the remote control should be minimally tested before redesigned and fine-tuned to suit a general range of requirements according to the feedback from product evaluation.

Next, the group did calculations on the budget as well as the profit goal before Marketing showed the challenges of this project in terms of budget control and reaching the profit target. The group then discussed using the internet for promotion and ordering and drop-shipping the product to the customer's residence. Finally, the subject moved to product evaluation by putting the prototype on the market and analyzing the feedback. The group discussed whether they should spare time for the redesign process before releasing the product to the market. Then Industrial Designer put up a strategy to do effective user research by choosing sports seasons.

Industrial Designer introduced the prototype to the team. It included buttons for channel change, power, menu and also had a slider for the volume, an infra-red section and a microphone. The cover was interchangeable with a company logo on it. User Interface added that the holes for the buttons to come through would be plastic, while the cover would be made of rubber. The final product would stand up and could stretch over.

Project Manager thought it would attract older people who couldn't manage the buttons as they would probably prefer speech recognition. However, Industrial Designer believed it tended to appeal more to younger aged groups as the team had gone with the fashion focus but then proposed that it should still appeal on a certain level to everybody.

This is the last meeting of the design group. At first, Industrial Designer introduced the remote control prototype to the group. It included buttons for channel change, power, menu and also had a slider for volume, an infra-red section and a microphone. The cover was interchangeable with a company logo on it. It was also made of a rubbery material and could stretch over. Then Project Manager went through the costs of various aspects of design and argued that a slight compromise could be made as the remote control would be a fashion accessory and have interchangeable covers. After that, Marketing specifically summed up the evaluation criteria of remote control. Finally, Project Manager concluded and praised the teamwork results.

The team was concerned that the combinatorial input that would result from the various linguistic and contextual schemas would be enormous for the Bayes net. The Professor suggested that it's best to narrow down the decision variables, perhaps by studying the trade-offs between different input factors. The team thought that perhaps they could keep the kinds of objects in the environment to a small subset and make rules governing actions around those objects.

As for the energy source, the basic battery was better because it was more convenient for remote control users. As for the chip, the simple electronic chip should be available with an LED transmitter. Next, the group came to discuss the possibility of LCDs that had been noted.

We have to choose Question: Why did the other group members disagree with Industrial Designer when talking about the LCD display? Answer:

Industrial Designer wanted an LCD that could be applied to show program information, which was also trendy if colored. However, this idea was disagreed by other group members for the following reasons. First, a big LCD screen was too expensive. Second, most users read the information on TV and the Internet instead of the remote. Next, LCD had a vulnerable feature and was also too functional to match the basic design concept. Moreover, for User Interface suggested that the design required only one specialty, LCD was not that necessary when the group had already decided on the docking station.

This meeting talked about the conceptual design of the remote control product. Industrial Designer gave the first presentation, stating the personal preference for components designs. User Interface delivered the second. It led to a following discussion about basic function types as well as the size of their buttons. Next, Marketing's presentation identified the three most important aspects of remote design and expressed the focus on the trend on the elder market. As such, the group started to discuss how to meet the satisfaction of different age markets with the design. After that, Project Manager steered the meeting to further questions, including technical functions, material, color design, buttons functionality, and docking station design.

Marketing further proposed that tracking devices can be used, and Industrial Designer agreed that some beeps or vibrations can be added. Project Manager thought they needed to design a trendy, interesting and sturdy remote control.

Industrial Designer proposed to add a round shape under the keyboard remote control to make the remote control more user-friendly. Project Designer proposed to add sensors on both sides for users to use more conveniently.

Answer:

The team agreed that the joystick handle must be easy to operate by one hand, with some ups and downs behind it, so as to be more user-friendly. The remote control needs to be longer to indicate the direction of the remote control. For convenience, the project manager proposed to install sensors at both ends, but the industrial designer thought that the more technology investment, the higher the cost. The numbers and buttons on the remote control can clearly indicate its direction. In addition, he proposed that it should not be too small, or it might be hard to design functions.

Project Manager introduced a new remote control project. The team started to know each other by introducing their roles in this project. Project Manager then invited everyone to raise ideas about the remote. Their discussion included its versatility, anti-loss design and possible appearance, but there was no final decision on these matters. The team agreed that the remote control should be one-handed, user-friendly and globally attractive. In addition, they noticed that these ideas should be realized under the price target and balance the stability and design sense of the remote control.

Project Manager asked User Interface whether it was just to playback something and was not really to do the control. User Interface supplemented that it could recognize a set target kind of word. So Project Manager thought this function is completely pointless from the interaction point of view.

Project Manager started meeting on the conceptual design of the remote control. Marketing gave a presentation on the preference of users which was easy to use with a fancy look. Also, Marketing suggested the remote control to be the shape of cool fruits with fewer buttons because they should target the young user group that would be keen on new device innovation. Next, User Interface presented on the sample of sensor speaker but didn't recommend it because it didn't add too much functional design and it was not mature to use it as a speech recognition engine. The group agreed with User Interface to have two scroll wheels with turbo button and switch on button. Then, Industrial Designer gave a presentation on the component design. The group decided to use a power source with spongy design and double curve chip for easy handling. Lastly, Project Manager helped conclude the features on the upcoming prototype presentation and asked group mates to prepare individually on it.

Industrial Designer designed remote control with handy size and made a connection with chips under the plastic of rubber button. Chip transmitted signal by Morse code which made infra-red lights signal could be sent to the TV. Industrial Designer prefered remote control with various colours so that it would be easy to use. On the other hand, Industrial Designer thought rubber buttons were easy to damage so they could make several designs.

According to data, Marketing thought that younger people were more interested in features like LCD screen and speech recognition. However, older people didn't care about features so much and spent more money on remote control than younger people. Findings also showed that fifty percent of users lost remote control so bigger is better than smaller about remote control. Marketing expressed that volume button and channel button were the most important buttons so they should be found easily.
