Secure Speech-Driven Systems for Condition Detection, Alerts, and Access Control (DEAL 609)

This portfolio is generally related to various techniques, such as electronic notebooks, secure communication, and data sharing using cryptography and techniques to detect operator impairment from operating equipment, etc. The interface receives the user details, receives an audible sound using a microphone, and converts the audible input to text. The system performs natural language processing on the converted text to identify keywords by using sentence segmentation, part-of-speech tagging, paraphrase recognition, and co-reference resolution to identify a condition based on the keywords. Also disclosed are techniques to dynamically generate an alert based on the identified condition and wirelessly transmit the alert using the wireless interface. Few patents in the portfolio disclose a technique of a secured access control system that provides control access to sensitive data using cryptography. The system allows only authorized users to decrypt and view the encrypted data. Another set of patents in the portfolio discloses an impairment detection system that detects different types of impairment events, such as a person being under the influence of an impairing substance, having an impairing medical condition, or suffering from an impairing fatigue to disallow a person from engaging in potentially risky tasks to reduce accidents or personal injury or property damages. The technology may be implemented in electronic notebook systems, health record management systems, speech recognition systems, secure electronic records management systems, mental health assessment systems, etc.
