Zusammenfassung: | A human-machine dialog system is described which has multiple computer-implemented dialog components. A user client delivers output prompts to a human user and receives dialog inputs from the human user including speech inputs. An automatic speech recognition (ASR) engine processes the speech inputs to determine corresponding sequences of representative text words. A natural language understanding (NLU) engine processes the text words to determine corresponding NLU-ranked semantic interpretations. A semantic re-ranking module re-ranks the NLU-ranked semantic interpretations based on at least one of dialog context information and world knowledge information. A dialog manager responds to the re-ranked semantic interpretations and generates the output prompts so as to manage a dialog process with the human user. |
