SPEECH INTERFACE DEVICE WITH CACHING COMPONENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240249725 titled 'SPEECH INTERFACE DEVICE WITH CACHING COMPONENT
The abstract describes a speech interface device that can receive response data from a remote speech processing system, including cacheable status indicators associated with the remote NLU results and/or remote directive data. The device can cache this information and use it locally to respond to user speech when communication with the remote system is not possible.
- The speech interface device receives response data from a remote speech processing system.
- The response data may include cacheable status indicators related to NLU results and/or directive data.
- The device can cache this information for future use when communication with the remote system is unavailable.
- By caching and using the information locally, the device can continue to respond to user speech effectively.
- This innovation ensures seamless user interaction even when connectivity to the remote system is disrupted.
Potential Applications: - Voice-controlled devices - Virtual assistants - Smart home systems - Customer service chatbots
Problems Solved: - Dependency on continuous connectivity to a remote speech processing system - Ensuring uninterrupted user interaction with speech interface devices
Benefits: - Improved user experience - Enhanced reliability of speech interface devices - Increased efficiency in responding to user commands
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Speech Interface Device for Seamless User Interaction" This technology can be applied in various commercial sectors such as customer service, smart home automation, and virtual assistant devices. It can improve the reliability and performance of speech interface systems, leading to better user satisfaction and increased market competitiveness.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the caching component of the speech interface device enhance user experience? 2. What are the potential limitations of caching remote speech processing information locally?
Original Abstract Submitted
a speech interface device is configured to receive response data from a remote speech processing system for responding to user speech. this response data may be enhanced with information such as a remote asr result(s) and a remote nlu result(s). the response data from the remote speech processing system may include one or more cacheable status indicators associated with the nlu result(s) and/or remote directive data, which indicate whether the remote nlu result(s) and/or the remote directive data are individually cacheable. a caching component of the speech interface device allows for caching at least some of this cacheable remote speech processing information, and using the cached information locally on the speech interface device when responding to user speech in the future. this allows for responding to user speech, even when the speech interface device is unable to communicate with a remote speech processing system over a wide area network.
