Recognition Error Handling in Spoken Dialogue Systems

چکیده

Increasing use of mobile devices for information access brings with it a demand for robust speech recognition. An important way in which speech recognition system performance can be improved is through use of dialogue strategies to handle the situation in which the system fails to recognise the user’s utterance. In the work described here, the case is made for combining multiple speech recognisers and appropriate dialogue strategies to handle poor recognition results. Two implemented systems are discussed as examples.

Exploring Human Error Handling Strategies: Implications for Spoken Dialogue Systems

In this study, the user experience and the consequences of different error handling strategies for spoken dialogue are examined. A modification of the Wizard of Oz method is used, where a speech recogniser is included in the setting. This makes it possible to study how humans handle speech recognition errors before a dialogue system is actually built. The results show that wizards tend not to s...

Recognition Error Handling by the Speech Understanding System to Improve Spoken Dialogue Systems

The aim of this paper is to increase the robustness of speech understanding facing the different kinds of recognition error. Indeed, these errors are frequent in human-machine dialogue and have usually repercussions on all components of the spoken dialogue system. We propose an approach based on a stochastic and conceptual model. This model is robust to some kinds of errors like insertions and ...

Error-correction detection and response generation in a spoken dialogue system

Speech understanding errors in spoken dialogue systems can be frustrating for users and difficult to recover from in a mixed-initiative spoken dialogue system. Handling such errors requires both detecting error conditions and adjusting the response generation strategy accordingly. In this paper, we show that different response wording choices tend to be associated with different user behaviors ...

GALATEA: A Discourse Modeller Supporting Concept-level Error Handling in Spoken Dialogue Systems

In this paper, a discourse modeller for conversational spoken dialogue systems, called GALATEA, is presented. Apart from handling the resolution of ellipses and anaphora, it tracks the “grounding status” of concepts that are mentioned during the discourse, i.e. information about who said what when. This grounding information also contains concept confidence scores that are derived from the spee...

Error Handling in Spoken Dialogue Systems : Managing Uncertainty, Grounding and Miscommunication

Due to the large variability in the speech signal, the speech recognition process constitutes the major source of errors in most spoken dialogue systems. A spoken dialogue system can never know for certain what the user is saying, it can only make hypotheses. As a result of this uncertainty, two types of errors can be made: over-generation of hypotheses, which leads to misunderstanding, and und...
