Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computing system for receiving audio encounter information from a microphone array. Speech activity within one or more portions of the audio encounter information may be identified based upon, at least in part, a correlation among the audio encounter information received from the microphone array. Location information for the one or more portions of the audio encounter information may be determined based upon, at least in part, the correlation among the signals received by each microphone of the microphone array. The one or more portions of the audio encounter information may be labeled with the speech activity and the location information.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method, executed on a computing device, comprising:
- receiving audio encounter information from a microphone array;
- identifying speech activity within each of one or more portions of the audio encounter information based upon, at least in part, a correlation among the audio encounter information received from the microphone array;
- determining location information for the one or more portions of the audio encounter information based upon, at least in part, the correlation among the audio encounter information received from the microphone array;
- and
- labeling, for each of the one or more portions of the audio encounter information, the portion with the speech activity and the location information.
A computer program product residing on a non-transitory computer readable medium having a plurality of instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- receiving audio encounter information from a microphone array;
- identifying speech activity within each of one or more portions of the audio encounter information based upon, at least in part, a correlation among the audio encounter information received from the microphone array;
- determining location information for the one or more portions of the audio encounter information based upon, at least in part, the correlation among the audio encounter information received from the microphone array;
- and
- labeling for each of the one or more portions of the audio encounter information, the portion with the speech activity and the location information.
A computing system comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor configured to receive audio encounter information from a microphone array, wherein the processor is further configured to identify speech activity within each of one or more portions of the audio encounter information based upon, at least in part, a correlation among the audio encounter information received from the microphone array, wherein the processor is further configured to location information for the one or more portions of the audio encounter information based upon, at least in part, the correlation among the audio encounter information received from the microphone array, and wherein the processor is further configured to label, for each of the one or more portions of the audio encounter information, the portion with the speech activity and the location information.
