Abstract

It is inter alia disclosed to perform at least one of operating an interaction process with a user of the medical apparatus and determining, based on a representation of at least one instruction given by the user, at least one instruction operable by the medical apparatus. Therein, the at least one of the operating and the determining at least partially depends on operational data. It is further disclosed to receive modification information for modifying at least a part of the operational data, wherein the modification information is at least partially determined based on an analysis of a representation of at least one instruction given by the user.

Claims

1-15. -15. (canceled)

16. A medical apparatus, comprising:

a processor configured to perform at least one of operating an interaction process with a user of said medical apparatus and determining, based on a respective representation of at least one instruction given by said user, at least one instruction operable by said medical apparatus, wherein said at least one of said operating an interaction process and said determining at least one instruction at least partially depends on operational data;

a communication unit configured to receive modification information for modifying at least a part of said operational data, said modification information at least partially determined based on an analysis of a respective representation of at least one instruction given by a user.

17. The medical apparatus according to claim 16, wherein said at least one instruction is given acoustically by said user and wherein said determining is at least partially based on speech recognition of said respective representation of said at least one instruction given by said user.

18. The medical apparatus according to claim 17, wherein said speech recognition at least partially depends on said operational data, and wherein at least a part of said modification information is determined to improve said speech recognition with respect to said user.

19. The medical apparatus according to claim 17, wherein said operational data is at least partially associated with at least one of an acoustic model, a language model and a wordbook for said speech recognition.

20. The medical apparatus according to claim 16, wherein said processor is further configured to present said representation of said at least one instruction given by said user and said at least one determined instruction.

21. The medical apparatus according to claim 20, wherein said modification information is at least partially determined based on an analysis of a respective representation of at least one instruction given by said user in response to said presentation.

22. The medical apparatus according to claim 16, wherein said operational data is at least partially associated with rules defining at least one of a flow of said interaction process and information provided to said user in said interaction process.

23. The medical apparatus according to claim 22, wherein at least a part of said modification information is determined to modify at least one of said flow of said interaction process and said information provided to said user in said interaction process.

24. The medical apparatus according to claim 16, wherein said communication unit is further configured to transmit said respective representation of said at least one instruction given by said user based on which said analysis is performed.

25. The medical apparatus according to claim 16, wherein said medical apparatus is a medical apparatus configured to administer a medicament.

27. A system, comprising:

an apparatus according to claim 26 and a medical apparatus according to claim 16.

30. A computer program, comprising instructions operable to cause a processor to perform the method claim 16 when said computer program is executed on said processor.

26. An apparatus, comprising:

a processor configured to perform determining, based on an analysis of a respective representation of at least one instruction given by a user of a medical apparatus, said medical apparatus configured to perform at least one of operating an interaction process with a user of said medical apparatus and determining at least one instruction operable by said medical apparatus in dependence on operational data, modification information for modifying at least a part of said operational data; and

a communication unit configured to transmit said modification information.

28. A method, comprising:

at least one of operating an interaction process with a user of a medical apparatus and determining, based on a respective representation of at least one instruction given by said user, at least one instruction operable by said medical apparatus, wherein said at least one of said operating and said determining at least partially depends on operational data;

receiving modification information for modifying at least a part of said operational data, said modification information at least partially determined based on an analysis of a respective representation of at least one instruction given by a user.

29. A method, comprising:

determining, based on an analysis of a respective representation of at least one instruction given by a user of a medical apparatus, said medical apparatus configured to perform at least one of operating an interaction process with a user of said medical apparatus and determining at least one instruction operable by said medical apparatus in dependence on operational data, modification information for modifying at least a part of said operational data; and

transmitting said modification information
