Intention estimating device and intention estimating method
First Claim
1. An intention estimating device that estimates a user'"'"'s intention from the user'"'"'s language input, said intention estimating device comprising:
- an intention estimation unit extractor that splits the inputted language into a plurality of morphemes and extracts, from the morphemes, one or more intention estimation units each of which is a unit on which an estimation of said intention is to be performed, each of the intention estimation units consisting of one or more morphemes;
an intention estimator that estimates a respective partial intention which indicates a respective intention for each of the intention estimation units extracted by said intention estimation unit extractor;
an intention co-occurrence weight calculator that calculates an intention co-occurrence weight having a value which depends on a relationship between said partial intentions estimated by said intention estimator; and
an intention sequence estimator that;
generates an intention sequence corresponding to said inputted language by using one or more said partial intentions estimated by said intention estimator, andgenerates an intention estimation result corresponding to said inputted language by using both a score showing a likelihood of said generated intention sequence and the intention co-occurrence weight calculated for said partial intentions which construct said generated intention sequence.

Abstract
An intention estimation unit extractor that extracts one or more intention estimation units each of which is a unit on which an estimation of the intention is to be performed from an inputted language, an intention estimator that estimates a partial intention of a part which constructs each of the extracted intention estimation units, an intention co-occurrence weight calculator that calculates an intention co-occurrence weight based on a relationship between partial intentions, and an intention sequence estimator that generates an intention sequence corresponding to the inputted language by using one or more partial intentions, and generates an intention estimation result corresponding to the inputted language by using both a score showing a likelihood of the generated intention sequence and an intention co-occurrence weight which the intention co-occurrence weight calculator calculates for the partial intentions which construct the generated intention sequence are disposed.

6. An intention estimating method of estimating a user'"'"'s intention from the user'"'"'s language input, said method comprising:
-
slitting the inputted language into a plurality of morphemes and extracting, from the morphemes, one or more intention estimation units each of which is a unit on which an estimation of said intention is to be performed, each of the intention estimation units consisting of one or more morphemes; estimating a respective partial intention which indicates a respective intention for each of said extracted intention estimation units; calculating an intention co-occurrence weight having a value which depends on a relationship between said estimated partial intentions; and generating an intention sequence corresponding to said inputted language by using said estimated one or more said partial intentions, and generating an intention estimation result corresponding to said inputted language by using both a score showing a likelihood of said generated intention sequence and the intention co-occurrence weight calculated for said partial intentions which construct said generated intention sequence. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)
