    摘要: Improved techniques are disclosed for permitting a user to employ more human-based grammar (i.e., free form or conversational input) while addressing a target system via a voice system. For example, a technique for determining intent associated with a spoken utterance of a user comprises the following steps/operations. Decoded speech uttered by the user is obtained. An intent is then extracted from the decoded speech uttered by the user. The intent is extracted in an iterative manner such that a first class is determined after a first iteration and a sub-class of the first class is determined after a second iteration. The first class and the sub-class of the first class are hierarchically indicative of the intent of the user, e.g., a target and data that may be associated with the target. The multi-stage intent extraction approach may have more than two iterations. By way of example only, the user intent extracting step may further determine a sub-class of the sub-class of the first class after a third iteration, such that the first class, the sub-class of the first class, and the sub-class of the sub-class of the first class are hierarchically indicative of the intent of the user.

    摘要: The present invention concerns methods and apparatus for identifying and assigning meaning to words not recognized by a vocabulary or grammar of a speech recognition system. In an embodiment of the invention, the word may be in an acoustic vocabulary of the speech recognition system, but may be unrecognized by an embedded grammar of a language model of the speech recognition system. In another embodiment of the invention, the word may not be recognized by any vocabulary associated with the speech recognition system. In embodiments of the invention, at least one hypothesis is generated for an utterance not recognized by the speech recognition system. If the at least one hypothesis meets at least one predetermined criterion, a sword or more corresponding to the at least one hypothesis is added to the vocabulary of the speech recognition system. In other embodiments of the invention, before adding the word to the vocabulary of the speech recognition system, the at least one hypothesis may be presented to the user of the speech recognition system to determine if that is what the used intended when the user spoke.

    摘要: In a voice processing system, a multimodal request is received from a plurality of modality input devices, and the requested application is run to provide a user with the feedback of the multimodal request. In the voice processing system, a multimodal aggregating unit is provided which receives a multimodal input from a plurality of modality input devices, and provides an aggregated result to an application control based on the interpretation of the interaction ergonomics of the multimodal input within the temporal constraints of the multimodal input. Thus, the multimodal input from the user is recognized within a temporal window. Interpretation of the interaction ergonomics of the multimodal input include interpretation of interaction biometrics and interaction mechani-metrics, wherein the interaction input of at least one modality may be used to bring meaning to at least one other input of another modality.
