Voice Macro Modification via Dynamic Data Extraction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional voice macro processing systems often fail to effectively utilize registered macros if the operation sequence is not registered as intended by the user, leading to inefficiencies and reduced user convenience.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus and method that extracts changing messages from user speech to identify intended changes in macro data, presumes the elements to be modified, and updates the macro data accordingly, allowing for dynamic execution of macros based on user input.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If macro data is registered in advance with fixed operation sequences, then execution reliability is improved, but adaptability to user needs deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables macro data to transition from a static, fixed state to a dynamic, modifiable state. Users can speak natural language to specify changes to macro operation sequences, and the system dynamically updates the macro data without requiring full re-registration. This resolves the contradiction by maintaining the reliability of structured macro execution while adding the adaptability of user-driven modifications.
Solution Approach 2:
The system allows users to directly modify macro data through speech input without requiring technical expertise or complex re-registration processes. The natural language processing interface enables end-users to service and adapt the macro system themselves, improving adaptability while preserving the reliability of the underlying macro execution framework.
2Manufacturing precision
If macro operation sequences are rigidly structured, then processing precision is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical interaction of manually configuring macro parameters with speech-based natural language processing. Users speak intuitive commands instead of navigating complex interfaces, dramatically improving ease of operation. The system maintains processing precision by parsing speech input and applying structured modifications to the macro operation sequences.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables modification of macro parameters through speech input, allowing users to change operation sequences, timing, and other parameters without re-registering entire macros. This maintains the precision of structured macro definitions while providing flexible, easy modification through natural language parameter changes.
3Reliability
If complete macro re-registration is required for modifications, then data integrity is improved, but loss of time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments macro modification into discrete, targeted changes rather than requiring complete re-registration. Users can specify individual operation sequence modifications, and the system applies only those specific changes while preserving the integrity of the overall macro structure. This dramatically reduces modification time while maintaining data integrity through controlled, incremental updates.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary parsing and validation of speech input before applying modifications, ensuring data integrity is maintained throughout the modification process. By preparing and validating change parameters in advance based on user speech, the system enables rapid modifications without compromising the integrity of the macro data structure.

AI summary
An information processing apparatus includes an extracting unit (133) that extracts a changing message related to a change in macro data (M), the changing message including at least one piece of first information indicating a function to be executed, and second information linked to the first information, from a user speech; a presuming unit (134) that presumes an element to be changed in the macro data (M) based on the changing message extracted by the extracting unit (133); and a changing unit (135) that changes the element to be changed in the macro data (M) presumed by the presuming unit (134), based on the changing message.
