SALES DATA GATHERING USING MOBILE PHONE

摘要

A method and apparatus for performing analysis on data collected at a point of sale is disclosed. The data from the point of sale is collected using voice recognition technique implemented on a mobile communication device. In order to enable this, a limited vocabulary word recognition technique is implemented using a set of libraries storing speech utterances in a memory storage unit present of the mobile communication device. Dynamic updating of module parameters associated with the stored speech utterances is enabled by a speech refinement unit of the mobile communication device. The device further enables local as well as regional data collation and analysis.
