20140358543 | LINKED-WORK ASSISTANCE APPARATUS, METHOD AND PROGRAM - According to one embodiment, a linked-work assistance apparatus includes an analysis unit, an identification unit and a control unit. The analysis unit analyzes a speech of each of users by using a keyword list, to acquire a speech analysis result indicating a relation between a first keyword and a classification of the first keyword, the keyword list indicating a list of keywords classified based on concepts of the keywords and intentions of the keywords. The identification unit identifies a role of each of the users according to the classification of the first keyword, to acquire a correspondence relation between each of the users and the role. The control unit, if the speech includes a name of the role, transmits the speech to other users which relate to the role corresponding to the name, by referring to the correspondence relation. | 12-04-2014 |
20150199341 | SPEECH TRANSLATION APPARATUS, METHOD AND PROGRAM - According to one embodiment, a speech translation apparatus includes a speech recognition unit, a translation unit, a search unit and a selection unit. The speech recognition unit successively performs speech recognition to obtain a first language word string. The translation unit translates the first language word string into a second language word string. The search unit search for at least one similar example and acquires the similar example and a translation example. The selection unit selects, in accordance with a user instruction, at least one of the first language word string associated with the similar example and the second language word string associated with the translation example, as a selected word string. | 07-16-2015 |
