Patent 11398239 was granted and assigned to Medallia on July, 2022 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A process for compressing an audio speech signal utilizes ASR processing to generate a corresponding text representation and, depending on confidence in the corresponding text representation, selectively applies more, less, or no compression to the audio signal. The result is a compressed audio signal, with corresponding text, that is compact and well suited for searching, analytics, or additional ASR processing.
