Speech Recognition Device Handling Ambiguous User Inputs
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Electronic devices face challenges in processing speech inputs effectively when user utterances are insufficient or ambiguous, leading to incomplete information and reduced reliability in performing intended operations.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device with a processor and memory that receives user inputs, transmits data to an external server, performs partial sequences, and displays a graphical user interface (GUI) to request additional parameters, ensuring complete task execution by prompting users for missing information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the electronic device processes speech input based on user utterance alone, then the processing speed is fast, but the reliability of task completion deteriorates when the utterance is insufficient or ambiguous
Solution Approach 1:
The electronic device performs preliminary analysis of the user utterance to determine whether it contains sufficient information for task completion. Based on this preliminary assessment, the system proactively prepares and presents a GUI to request additional parameters before executing the task, ensuring reliable task completion while maintaining efficient processing flow.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements a feedback mechanism where the electronic device evaluates the completeness of the utterance, and when insufficient information is detected, it provides feedback by displaying a GUI that prompts the user to input additional parameters. This feedback loop ensures that only complete tasks are executed, improving reliability without significantly increasing processing complexity.
2Reliability
If the electronic device requests additional parameters through GUI when utterance is insufficient, then the reliability of task completion is improved, but the processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary evaluation of utterance completeness before task execution. When insufficient information is detected, the GUI is presented proactively to collect missing parameters, preventing time loss from incomplete task execution and ensuring reliable completion without significant delay.
Solution Approach 2:
The electronic device performs partial processing of the utterance to identify missing parameters without waiting for complete user input. By presenting the GUI with specific parameter requests based on partial analysis, the system minimizes the additional time required while ensuring all necessary information is collected for reliable task completion.
3Productivity
If the electronic device completes tasks based on incomplete information, then the processing efficiency is high, but the accuracy of task execution deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback by evaluating whether the utterance contains all necessary parameters for accurate task execution. When parameters are missing, the system provides feedback through a GUI that requests the additional information, ensuring accurate task execution while maintaining high processing efficiency through automated evaluation and targeted information collection.
Solution Approach 2:
The electronic device performs self-service by automatically analyzing the completeness of the utterance and determining what additional parameters are needed. This self-service capability allows the system to maintain high processing efficiency while ensuring accuracy, as it autonomously identifies and requests only the specific information needed without manual intervention for every parameter check.

AI summary
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a processor, and a memory, wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to receive a user input including a request for performing a first task that requires at least one parameter for execution and not including the entire at least one parameter, transmit first data related to the user input to an external server, receive a first sequence of states of the electronic device for performing the first task from the external server, perform not all but some of the first sequence of the states while displaying at least some of states changed in the first sequence, and after the performing of the some of the first sequence, display a GUI that is required for performing the first task and represents that a user is requested to provide at least one parameter omitted in the user input.
