SPEECH COMMAND INPUT RECOGNITION SYSTEM FOR INTERACTIVE COMPUTER DISPLAY WITH INTERPRETATION OF ANCILLARY RELEVANT SPEECH QUERY TERMS INTO COMMANDS
First Claim
1. A method for interactive speech control of a system comprising a microprocessor, the method comprising:
- receiving, at an audio input of the system, a first utterance spoken by a user;
performing automatic speech recognition to recognize a non-command speech input in the first utterance;
displaying electronically, on a visual display, the non-command speech input;
identifying, from a relevance data store retained in memory and accessed by the microprocessor, one or more system action commands relevant to the recognized non-command speech input; and
displaying the identified one or more system action commands on the visual display in association with the non-command speech input.

Abstract
In an interactive computer controlled display system with speech command input recognition and visual feedback including means for predetermining a plurality of speech commands for respectively initiating each of a corresponding plurality of system actions in combination with means for providing for each of the plurality of speech commands an associated set of speech terms, each term having relevance to its associated command Also included are means responsive to a detected speech term having relevance to one of the speech commands for displaying a relevant command. The system preferably may display basic speech commands simultaneously along with relevant commands. The means for providing the associated set of speech terms may comprise a stored relevance table of universal speech input commands and universal computer operation terms conventionally associated with system actions initiated by the input commands, and means for relating operation terms of the system with terms in the relevance table.

11. An interactive speech-controlled system comprising:
-
a microprocessor adapted to recognize speech input received from an audio input of the speech-controlled system; a memory containing a relevance data store accessible by the microprocessor that stores one or more system action commands that are relevant to non-command speech inputs; a display adapter; and a visual display, wherein the microprocessor is configured to issue instructions to; display, on the visual display, a non-command speech input responsive to receiving a first utterance spoken by a user at the audio input and recognizing the non-command speech input in the first utterance; and display, on the visual display, one or more system action commands, retrieved from the relevance data store, that are relevant to the non-command speech input. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
