Voice recognition device controller
First Claim
1. A voice recognition device controller having a voice input unit configured to receive speech input from a user, a voice recognition unit configured to recognize the speech input to the voice input unit, a response output unit configured to output a response to the user, and a device control unit configured to control a device based on a recognition result of the voice recognition unit, the voice recognition device controller comprising:
- an input item count detection unit configured to detect the number of items identified from the speech recognized by the voice recognition unit among a given number of items necessary to control the device;
a reference input item count setting unit configured to set a reference value for the number of items identified from the speech based on the content of the input speech;
an input item count comparison unit configured to compare the number of items detected by the input item count detection unit with the reference value for the number of items set by the reference input item count setting unit;
a learning level determination unit configured to determine a learning level in speech of the user based on a comparison result of the input item count comparison unit; and
a response control unit configured to control the response output from the response output unit according to the learning level determined by the learning level determination unit.

Abstract
A voice recognition device controller is provided, which is capable of properly determining a user'"'"'s leaning level in speech so as to provide an efficient interaction. It includes a voice input unit 2 for receiving speech input from a user, a voice recognition unit 3 for recognizing the input speech, a response output unit 10 for outputting a response to the user, and a device control unit 11 for controlling a device based on a recognition result of the voice recognition unit 3. It further includes an input item count detection unit 4 for detecting the number of items identified from the recognized speech among a given number of items necessary to control the device, a reference input item count setting unit 6 for setting a reference value for the number of items identified from the speech, an input item count comparison unit 7 for comparing the number of items detected by the input item count detection unit 4 with the reference value set by the reference input item count setting unit 6, a skill level determination unit 8 for determining the user'"'"'s skill level in speech based on a comparison result, and a response control unit 9 for controlling the response output according to the determined skill level.
