For this reason, the length of the generated parrot-style response sentences is limited by the template
Therefore, the length of the generated parrot response sentence may deviate from the length of the sentence in the user's voice

[0017] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0018] figure 1 Is a block diagram showing a schematic system configuration of the voice dialogue device according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. The voice dialogue device 1 according to the first embodiment analyzes the acquired user's voice, generates a parrot-like response sentence for repeating the voice based on the analysis result, and outputs the generated parrot-like response sentence.

[0019] In the dialogue with the user, the voice dialogue device 1 outputs the parrot-like response sentence above to fill in time until the actual response is generated. This reduces the unnatural impression in the dialogue caused by waiting for a response. The voice dialogue device 1 is installed on, for example, a robot, a server, a terminal such as a PC, and a mobile terminal such as a smartphone. The voice dialogue device 1 can realize a more natural dialog...

Abstract

The invention discloses a voice dialogue apparatus, a voice dialogue method, and a program. The voice dialogue apparatus analyzes an acquired user's voice, generates a parrot-like response sentence and outputs the generated parrot-like response sentence. The voice dialogue apparatus includes storage means for storing the user's past voice, average calculation means for calculating an average valueof voice sentence lengths each indicating a length of the user's voice based on the user's past voice, candidate generation means for combining a dependency word, which establishes a dependency relation with a noun included in the acquired user's voice, with the noun to generate a plurality of response sentence candidates, and repetition generation means for selecting, in association with the average value of the voice sentence lengths, one response sentence candidate from among the plurality of response sentence candidates and using the selected response sentence candidate as it is or processing the selected response sentence candidate to generate the parrot-like response sentence.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a voice dialogue device, voice dialogue method, and program for dialogue with a user. Background technique [0002] There is known a voice dialogue device that analyzes the user’s voice, generates a parrot-like response sentence for repeating the voice based on the analysis result, and outputs the generated parrot-like response sentence (for example, see Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2009-193448). [0003] The above voice dialogue device distinguishes the template corresponding to the user's voice, and generates a parrot-like response sentence having a length associated with the template. For this reason, the length of the generated parrot response sentence is limited by the template. Therefore, the length of the generated parrot-like response sentence may deviate from the length of the sentence in the user's voice. In view of this situation, there is a need for the following voice dialogue devices...
