Dialog system
First Claim
1. A dialog system (1) comprising processing units for automatic speech recognition (3), natural language understanding (4), defining system outputs in dependence on information (7) derived from user inputs, generating acoustic and/or visual system outputs (9, 10, 11, 12), deriving user models (22, 25), while the user models (22, 25) contain details about the style of speech of user inputs and/or details about interactions in dialogs between users and the dialog system (1) and adaptation of contents and/or form of system outputs is provided in dependence on the user models (22, 25).

Abstract
The invention relates to a dialog system (1) which has a most comfortable and effective dialog structure for a user, comprising processing units for
automatic speech recognition (3),
natural language understanding (4),
defining system outputs in dependence on information (7) derived from user inputs,
generating acoustic and/or visual system outputs (9, 10, 11, 12),
deriving user models, while the user models contain details about the style of speech of user inputs and/or details about interactions in dialogs between users and the dialog system (1) and adaptation of contents and/or form of system outputs is provided in dependence on the user models.

7. A method of operating a dialog system, in which processing units are used for
automatic speech recognition (3), natural language understanding (4), defining system outputs in dependence on information (7) derived from user inputs, generating acoustic and/or visual system outputs (9, 10, 11, 12), and deriving user models (13), while the user models contain details about the style of speech of user inputs and/or indications about interactions in dialogs between users and the dialog system (1) and an adaptation of contents and/or form of system outputs is provided in dependence on the user models (22, 25).
