OPEN MICROPHONE PERPETUAL CONVERSATION ANALYSIS

摘要

A conversation analytics system including multiple microphones that each respectively capture at least a part of a single real world natural language conversation. The natural language data (for example, audio of natural language, or audio of natural language converted to text) from each of the multiple microphones is combined into a single combined piece of natural language data (for example, a combined audio file, or a combined piece of text). This combined piece of natural language data is subject to: (i) machine logic based natural language understanding; and/or (ii) community conversation analysis. The multiple microphones may be respectively built into mobile devices which are always on and which are generally always carried by the device owners on their respective persons.

1. A method comprising:
receiving first natural language data based on audio data sensed by a first microphone and second natural language data based on audio data sensed by a second microphone, where the first and second microphones are within conversational proximity to each other when the first and second microphones respectively sense the first and second natural language data, wherein the first microphone senses natural language of at least a first user and a second user, and wherein the second microphone senses natural language of at least the first user and the second user; determining, by machine logic, that the first natural language data and the second natural language data each include at least a portion of a first real world natural language conversation of the first user and the second user; combining at least the first and second natural language data into third natural language data corresponding to the natural language of the first real world natural language conversation; and performing, by machine logic, natural language understanding on the third natural language data to yield at least a first insight information.
