Speech Transcript Selection Across Segments With Speaker Labels
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic devices lack diverse services for voice data processing, failing to meet user requirements for tasks such as cross-segment selection, merging, and editing of speech information.
Innovation Solution
The electronic device provides a voice processing method that allows for cross-segment selection and merging of speech texts by using controls like long-press and click operations to select and concatenate speech information, and supports functions like speaker label modification and text merging.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If speech information is displayed in segmented format with speaker labels, then speaker identification is improved, but selection and editing operations across segments become difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a text selection mechanism as an intermediary layer between the segmented speech display and user operations. When users perform long-press operations, the system converts the segmented speech information into a selectable text format, allowing cross-segment selection without altering the original segmented display structure. This mediator enables both speaker identification accuracy and cross-segment editing operations to coexist.
2Device complexity
If basic transcription service is provided, then implementation complexity is reduced, but service diversity and user requirement satisfaction deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal processing mechanism that handles multiple speech information operations (selection, copying, sharing, editing, merging) through a unified text selection interface. The same text selection mechanism serves multiple functions: it enables cross-segment selection, supports various editing operations, and works with different speech information formats. This multi-functional approach increases service diversity without proportionally increasing implementation complexity.
3Productivity
If speech information from multiple segments is selected simultaneously, then editing efficiency is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the speech information display into separate units with speaker labels while maintaining an underlying unified text structure for selection purposes. The display layer is segmented for identification, but the text layer remains continuous and selectable across segments. This dual-layer structure allows efficient cross-segment selection without requiring complex multi-segment selection logic, as the underlying text structure handles the segmentation transparently.

AI summary
This application relates to the field of audio processing technologies, and provides a voice processing method and an electronic device. If the electronic device receives a long-press operation after transcribing a voice file into a text, it indicates that a user may intend to select speech content located in different segments simultaneously. The electronic device may concatenate all displayed speech information to obtain a concatenated character string. Next, the electronic device determines a target character range based on a start position and an end position corresponding to the long-press operation in combination with the concatenated character string. The target character range represents selected characters corresponding to the long-press operation in the concatenated character string. Next, the electronic device displays the concatenated character string in plain text format, and sets a selection state for characters in the target character range to achieve the cross-segment selection of speech information. The electronic device may perform corresponding processing, for example, sharing, searching, copying, among other operations, according to a function control selected by the user, to provide the user with diverse services, thereby enhancing user experience.
