The design of a spoken language interface

چکیده
Fast and accurate speech recognition systems systems bring with them the possibility of designing effective voice driven applications. Efforts to this date have involved the construction of monolithic systems, necessitating repetition of effort as each new system is implemented. In this paper, we describe an initial implementation of a general spoken language interface, the Carnegie Mellon Spoken Language Shell (CM-SLS) which provides voice interface services to a variable number of applications running on the same computer. We also present a system built using CM-SLS, the Office Manager, which provides the user with voice access to facilities such as an appointment calendar, a personal database, and voice mail.
