Method for embedding voice mail in a spoken utterance using a natural language processing computer system
View Patent ↗A method for processing a voice message in a computerized system. The method receives and records a speech utterance including a message portion and a communication portion. The method proceeds to parse the input to identify and separate the message portion and the communication portion. It then identifies communication parameters, including one or more destination mailboxes, from the communication portion, and it transmits the message portion to the destination mailbox as a voice message.
1. A method for natural language processing of a speech utterance in a computerized system, comprising:
receiving and storing a speech utterance in a computerized system, the utterance comprising a communication portion and a message portion;
analyzing and parsing the speech input using the computerized system to identify and separate the communication portion and the message portion;
identifying communication parameters using the computerized system, the communication parameters including one or more destinations, from the communication portion;
wherein the communication parameters indicate that the message portion should be saved as a memo, and transmitting includes recording the message portion for future playback in the computerized system; and
automatically transmitting the message portion from the storage to the destination as a voice message.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the destination is a voice mail mailbox.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the destination is an email address.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the destination is a user account on a social networking website.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the destination is one or more user accounts on the service used to initiate the communication.
6. The method of claim 1 , further including transcribing the message portion.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein transmitting further includes transmitting the transcribed message portion as an SMS or MMX message.
8. The method of claim 6 , wherein transmitting further includes transmitting the transcribed message portion as an SMS or MMX message.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein identifying communication parameters includes obtaining a destination mailbox from a contacts list.
10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising a recording device recording at least a portion of the message portion from the ambient environment of the recording device.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the recording can be stopped only by a voice command from the person who initiated the recording.
12. A system for processing a natural language message in a computerized system, comprising:
a recording device that receives and stores a speech utterance in the computerized system, the utterance comprising a message portion and a communication portion, and storing the utterance in a system storage;
a processor coupled to a memory storing instructions, the instructions which when executed cause the processor to perform:
parsing the utterance using the computerized system to identify and separate the message portion and the communication portion;
identifying communication parameters from the communication portion using the computerized system, the communication parameters including one or more destinations;
wherein the communication parameters indicate that the message portion should be saved as a memo, and transmitting includes recording the message portion for future playback in the computerized system; and
automatically transmitting the message portion from the storage to the destination as a voice message.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the destination is a voice mail mailbox.
14. The system of claim 12 , wherein the destination is an email address.
15. The system of claim 12 , wherein the destination is a user account on a social networking website.
16. The system of claim 12 , wherein the destination is one or more user accounts on the service used to initiate the communication.
17. The system of claim 12 , further including transcribing the message portion.
18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the destination is an email address.
19. The system of claim 17 , wherein transmitting further includes transmitting the transcribed message portion as an SMS or MMX message.
20. The system of claim 12 , wherein identifying communication parameters includes obtaining a destination mailbox from a contacts list.
21. The system of claim 12 , wherein the recording device records at least a portion of the message portion from the ambient environment of the recording device.
22. The system of claim 21 , wherein the recording can be stopped only by a voice command from the person who initiated the recording.
