[0039] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] When users control household appliances through various human-computer interaction interfaces, they expect to make human-computer interaction more humane and more in line with human interaction habits. For example, when a spoken instruction "the room is too hot, turn down the temperature" is issued, it is expected that a series of operations such as turning on the relevant air-conditioning equipment, adjusting it to the cooling mode, and setting the temperature to 24 degrees can be realized. However, there is currently a lack of corresponding solutions, and the human-computer interaction process is relatively cumbersome, with a low success rate and is not humane enough. In order to solve the above problems, an embodiment of the present invention proposes a method for controlling a device based on a compensation command.

[0041] Figure 1 is a flowchart of a method for controlling a device based on a compensation command according to an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to Figure 1 The method for controlling a device based on a compensation command provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0042] Step 110, receiving a first command, wherein the first command includes a first attribute for controlling a device;

[0043] Step 120: acquiring at least one second attribute associated with the first attribute according to the first attribute of the first command; generating a corresponding compensation command according to the at least one second attribute, wherein the compensation command is an associated command that must be executed by the device to execute the first command; and creating a command queue according to the first command and the compensation command;

[0044] Step 130: Control the device according to the command queue so that the first attribute of the device is adjusted accordingly.

[0045] In the embodiment of the present invention, it should be noted that the present invention is applicable to smart speakers or devices with voice interaction functions, especially human-computer interaction interfaces of smart assistants through voice interaction. The human-computer interaction interface can call the method provided by the embodiment of the present invention after determining that the user issues a command to control the device. In particular, the device that generates the command queue and the device that executes the command queue can be integrated or separate. For example, there may be a smart speaker and an air conditioner connected to the smart speaker. The user controls the air conditioner by interacting with the smart speaker, especially the scene where the user is in one room and the air conditioner is in another room; there may also be an air conditioner with a voice smart assistant, and the user controls the air conditioner through the voice smart assistant that comes with the air conditioner, especially in the scene where the visual display interface is not viewed. Here, the smart assistant can use various methods to process the user's voice input to obtain commands for controlling the device. Such a command can be "set the air conditioner to 20 degrees" and other commands that clearly specify the device to be controlled and the attributes to be operated, but does not specify what mode it is, whether it is turned on, etc., lacking complete conditions, so when this command is directly used to control the device, an error will occur, or the user's true intention cannot be realized. The device described here takes an air conditioner as an example, but it can also be other devices, such as household appliances such as desk lamps and refrigerators.

[0046] In the embodiment of the present invention, it should be noted that the operation of creating a command queue based on the first command and the compensation command includes: determining the execution order corresponding to the first command and the compensation command based on the first attribute and the at least one second attribute respectively; and generating the command queue based on the execution order.

[0047] Among them, the first attribute and the second attribute have their own priorities, so the first command and the compensation command also have corresponding priorities. According to the priorities of each command, the execution order of each command can be determined, including the execution order of the first command and the compensation command. The queue is a data structure with limited operation. Each element in the command queue, that is, each command, has a first-in-first-out order, that is, a first-execution-later-execution order. According to the execution order of each command, a command queue is generated. The command queue is executed by the device in the order of the commands in the queue.

[0048] In the embodiment of the present invention, it should be noted that before the operation of obtaining at least one second attribute associated with the first attribute of the first command, it also includes: an operation of determining whether the first command can be directly executed, the operation including: obtaining the current state of the device; determining whether the device can directly execute the first command in the current state based on the current state and the first attribute; when the judgment result is that the first command cannot be directly executed, executing the subsequent operation of obtaining at least one second attribute associated with the first attribute based on the first attribute of the first command.

[0049] The first command is a command issued by the user and may be pre-processed. The first command may be complete and sufficient to control the device to realize the user's true intention, or it may be incomplete and insufficient to control the device to realize the user's true intention. When the first command is incomplete, the method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is executed to control the device to realize the user's true intention. The embodiment of the present invention determines whether the first command is complete and sufficient to control the device to realize the user's true intention according to the state and attributes of the device. Specifically, judging whether the device can directly execute the operation of the first command in the current state according to the state and attributes of the device includes: first, judging whether the first command is executable according to the current state; if it is executable, then judging whether the first command is executable according to the first command; if the first command is judged to be executable according to the current state and the first command, the first command is sent to the device, and the device executes the first command. If the first command is judged to be not executable according to the current state, the judgment result is that the first command cannot be directly executed; if the first command is judged to be executable according to the current state, but the first command is judged to be not executable according to the first command, the judgment result is also that the first command cannot be directly executed.

[0050] Specifically, the following describes a method for determining whether a first command is executable based on the current state of a device, the current state includes a third attribute, and the relationship between the third attribute and the first attribute is determined based on the third attribute; when the relationship between the third attribute and the first attribute is a logical AND, the first command is determined to be directly executable; otherwise, the first command is determined to be not directly executable. Specifically, the following describes a method for determining whether a first command is executable based on the first command, the first command includes a first attribute, and whether the at least one second attribute exists is determined based on the first attribute; if so, the result of the determination is that the first command cannot be directly executed; otherwise, the result of the determination is that the first command can be directly executed and the first command is sent to the device. Among them, the third attribute is the device function mode; the first attribute is a sub-function of the device function mode.

[0051] Figure 2 It is a flow chart of the control request calculation rules. In the field of Internet of Things, devices are controlled through the Internet, based on existing functions and user expectations. The calculation rules implemented are as follows Figure 2 As shown. In this control request calculation rule, after the cloud receives the control request, it determines whether the command is allowed to be issued in the current state. After the verification is passed, the command completion is completed and the command can be issued. However, this method requires a page interaction layer between the user and the device. The user can understand what commands the device can currently issue through the application layer page, thereby ensuring that the issued command can be executed by the device. This method is suitable for APP operation, but not for smart speaker voice operation devices. Unless you know the current state of the device and what operations the device can support through the speaker before the operation, the user experience is not good. The method of controlling the device based on compensation commands can control the device without understanding the status of the device.

[0052] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a compensation command according to an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to Figure 3, the compensation command provided in the embodiment of the present invention is a command that needs to be supplemented before issuing certain commands. The compensation command and the issued command form a command queue and are issued in sequence. For example, the issued command is "set the air conditioner to 20 degrees", and the issued command here is the first command, which is used to control the target temperature of the air conditioner, and the first attribute is the target temperature. According to the issued command, the corresponding trigger content is found, the range of the attribute value is 16 degrees to 30 degrees, and the relationship between the attributes is "and". According to the attribute of the target temperature, at least one second attribute associated with the target temperature is obtained. Here, the second attribute is the on / off state, and the current state is the off state. It is judged that there is a second attribute, so the command to control the target temperature of the air conditioner cannot be directly executed. The current state of the air conditioner is obtained, and the attribute of the current state of the air conditioner is the function mode, that is, the third attribute here is the function mode, the attribute value is cooling, the relationship between the attributes is "and", and the first attribute is a sub-function that needs to be set in the cooling mode. Here, it is determined that the command to control the target temperature of the air conditioner can be directly executed. In summary of the above two judgment conditions, only the command to control the target temperature of the air conditioner cannot be directly executed so that the attribute value of the target temperature of the device can be adjusted accordingly. Specifically, when receiving the command "set the air conditioner to 20 degrees" from the user, the cloud finds that the air conditioner is currently in cooling mode but is not turned on. At this time, it only sends a command to set the target temperature to 20 degrees to the air conditioner, and the air conditioner is still not turned on, that is, the command to set the target temperature to 20 degrees does not change the state of the air conditioner, and the user's intention is not realized. In the embodiment of the present invention, the cloud will prepend a power-on command according to the preset rules. The power-on command should be executed by the air conditioner before setting the target temperature to 20 degrees. Therefore, after the power-on command is successfully issued, the command to set the target temperature to 20 degrees continues to be issued. After completing all the commands in the command queue, the user's true intention is realized. The air conditioner changes from the state of being turned off in cooling mode to the state of being turned on in cooling mode with the target temperature set to 20 degrees, thus avoiding multiple interactions with the user.

[0053] According to the current state of the air conditioner and the commands issued, multiple command queues that can change the state of the air conditioner may be found. For example, a command to set the target temperature to 20 degrees is received in the power-on state. At this time, no functional mode is specified, and there are multiple modes such as heating, ventilation and automatic. At this time, according to the preset priority rules, such as setting the automatic mode to the highest priority, the automatic mode is selected when no functional mode is specified. Compensation commands can also be selected in the cloud based on external information. For example, when the room temperature reaches 30 degrees in summer, the priority of the cooling mode is increased and the cooling mode is selected. After one o'clock in the evening, the priority of the sleep mode is increased, so that the command queue also includes the command to set the air conditioner to the sleep mode. When the user is accustomed to turning on the air conditioner at 7 o'clock in the afternoon, setting it to the cooling mode, and the temperature is 22 degrees, the cloud can record the user's habits. When the command of "turning on the air conditioner" is received, a command queue including setting the functional mode to the cooling mode and the target temperature to 22 degrees is selected.
