ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatuses in which attributes including one or more types of accents and one or more types of human languages from an audio information stream are identified. Each identified attribute from the audio information stream is encoded into a time ordered index. Each of the identified attributes shares a common time reference. Different human language models are compared at approximately the same time to generate an integrated time ordered index.
