Text searching is achieved by techniques including phrase frequency analysis and phrase-co-occurrence analysis. In many cases, factor matrix analysis is also advantageously applied to select high technical content phrases to be analyzed for possible inclusion within a new query. The described techniques may be used to retrieve data, determine levels of emphasis within a collection of data, determine the desirability of conflating search terms, detect symmetry or asymmetry between two text elements within a collection of documents, generate a taxonomy of documents within a collection, and perform literature-based problem solving. (This abstract is intended only to aid those searching patents, and is not intended to limit the disclosure of claims in any manner.)

A method for analyzing the operation of a gas turbine is provided. A neural network based upon a normal operation of the gas turbine is learned. A dynamic pressure signal is read by a pressure sensor in or on the compressor of the turbine, and an operating parameter is read by a further sensor. The dynamic pressure signal is subjected to a frequency analysis, a parameter of a frequency spectrum of the pressure signal being determined. Based upon the measured operating parameter and the parameter of the frequency spectrum of the pressure signal, the neural network is learned. The measured operating parameter and the parameter of the frequency spectrum are input parameters, and a diagnostic characteristic value representing a probability of a presence of operation of the gas turbine as a function of the input parameters is output.

Systems and methods for utilizing inter-microphone level differences (ILD) to attenuate noise and enhance speech are provided. In exemplary embodiments, primary and secondary acoustic signals are received by omni-directional microphones, and converted into primary and secondary electric signals. A differential microphone array module processes the electric signals to determine a cardioid primary signal and a cardioid secondary signal. The cardioid signals are filtered through a frequency analysis module which takes the signals and mimics a cochlea implementation (i.e., cochlear domain). Energy levels of the signals are then computed, and the results are processed by an ILD module using a non-linear combination to obtain the ILD. In exemplary embodiments, the non-linear combination comprises dividing the energy level associated with the primary microphone by the energy level associated with the secondary microphone. The ILD is utilized by a noise reduction system to enhance the speech of the primary acoustic signal.

A speech recognition system for transforming an acoustic signal into a stream of phonetic estimates includes a frequency analyzer for generating a short-time frequency representation of the acoustic signal. A novelty processor separates background components of the representation from region of interest components of the representation. The output of the novelty processor includes the region of interest components of the representation according to the novelty parameters. An attention processor produces a gating signal as a function of the novelty output according to attention parameters. A coincidence processor produces information regarding co-occurrences between samples of the novelty output over time and frequency. The coincidence processor selectively gates the coincidence output as a function of the gating signal according to one or more coincidence parameters. A vector pattern recognizer and a probability processor receives the gated coincidence output and produces a phonetic estimate stream representative of acoustic signal.

Disclosed herein is a method and apparatus for monitoring, identifying and determining the breathing cycle of an individual from processed acoustic signal waveform data. The breathing sounds of an individual are recorded using a microphone and digitized such that the breathing sounds may be plotted. The data is segmented and transformed to form a plurality of segments representative of a frequency spectrum. The frequency spectrum data is transformed so as to produce magnitude bins and the sum of lower magnitude bins and the sum of higher magnitude bins are determined in a sampling of segments. A Bands Ratio is determined from the sum of lower magnitude bins and the sum of higher magnitude bins in the sampling of segments. A first bands ratio is then determined within a given segment and compared to the mean bands ratio. If the first bands ratio of the given segment is greater than the mean bands ratio by at least a predetermined multiplier, the given segment is labeled as inspiration. If the first bands ratio of the given segment is less than the mean bands ratio by at least a predetermined multiplier, the given segment is labeled as expiration.

A natural language understanding method begins with a radiological report text containing clinical findings. Errors in the text are corrected by analyzing character-level optical transformation costs weighted by a frequency analysis over a corpus corresponding to the report text. For each word within the report text, a word embedding is obtained, character-level embeddings are determined, and the word and character-level embeddings are concatenated to a neural network which generates a plurality of NER tagged spans for the report text. A set of linked relationships are calculated for the NER tagged spans by generating masked text sequences based on the report text and determined pairs of potentially linked NER spans. A dense adjacency matrix is calculated based on attention weights obtained from providing the one or more masked text sequences to a Transformer deep learning network, and graph convolutions are then performed over the calculated dense adjacency matrix.
