Logical Approach to Natural Language Understanding in a Spoken Dialogue System
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a logical approach of spoken language understanding for a human-machine dialogue system. The aim of the analysis is to provide a logical formula, or a conceptual graph, by assembling concepts related to a delimited application domain. This flexible structure is gradually built during an incremental parsing, which is meant to combine syntactic and semantic criteria. Then, a contextual understanding step leads to completing this structure. The evaluations of the current system are encouraging. This approach is a preliminary for a logical dialogue that uses the form of the semantic representations.

متن کاملError recovery for robust language understanding in spoken dialogue systems
In this paper, we proposed an example-based approach aiming at recovering ill-formed inputs to improve robustness of spoken dialogue systems. In this approach, a treebank, which contains example sentences and their correct parse trees, is used to provide clues for fixing the errors of ill-formed inputs. Particularly, the proposed error recovery method is suitable for spoken dialogue application...
