MOBILE TERMINAL AND MENU CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a display;
an input unit;
a memory including a database of information associated with functions or menus of the mobile terminal; and
a controller configured to;
initiate a voice recognition function in response to a touch input to a soft button displayed on the display or to a hard button on the mobile terminal, wherein the voice recognition function is maintained for a predetermined amount of time since the touch input to the soft button or to the hard button if there is no voice input detected by the mobile terminal during the predetermined amount of time, and wherein an audio information indicating an activation of the voice recognition function is provided;
convert a voice instruction input into text in response to detection of the voice instruction input; and
display information to inform execution of a menu or function associated with the voice instruction input if a recognition rate of the voice instruction input to be related to the menu or function is higher than a threshold value, wherein the recognition rate of the voice instruction input with respect to the menu or function is improved via learning from the detection of the voice instruction input and the execution of the menu or function.

Abstract
A mobile terminal including an input unit configured to receive an input to activate a voice recognition function on the mobile terminal, a memory configured to store information related to operations performed on the mobile terminal, and a controller configured to activate the voice recognition function upon receiving the input to activate the voice recognition function, to determine a meaning of an input voice instruction based on at least one prior operation performed on the mobile terminal and a language included in the voice instruction, and to provide operations related to the determined meaning of the input voice instruction based on the at least one prior operation performed on the mobile terminal and the language included in the voice instruction and based on a probability that the determined meaning of the input voice instruction matches the information related to the operations of the mobile terminal.

12. A method of controlling a mobile terminal, the method comprising:
-
initiating a voice recognition function in response to a touch input to a soft button displayed on a display of the mobile terminal or to a hard button on the mobile terminal, wherein the voice recognition function is maintained for a predetermined amount of time since the touch input to the soft button or to the hard button if there is no voice input detected by the mobile terminal during the predetermined amount of time, and wherein an audio information indicating an activation of the voice recognition function is provided; converting a voice instruction input into text in response to detection of the voice instruction input; and displaying information on the display to inform execution of a menu or function of the mobile terminal associated with the voice instruction input if a recognition rate of the voice instruction input to be related to the menu or function is higher than a threshold value, wherein the recognition rate of the voice instruction input with respect to the menu or function is improved via learning from the detection of the voice instruction input and the execution of the menu or function. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
