| Abstract(in English) | A speech-oriented dialog system employed in real-environment requires dialog control techniques which enable flexible processing of various utterance expressions. As a robust response generation method for various utterance expressions, an example-based response generation method has been studied. This method employs a question and answer database (QADB) to generate the most appropriate response by selecting an example question which is nearest to an input. Conventionally, a QADB is constructed from transcriptions of utterance data. In this paper, we propose response generation based on a question and answer database using automated speech recognition results (ASR-QADB),which enables to perform robust selection of examples against recognition errors. Evaluating the performance of system responses by response accuracy, the same response accuracy as with the conventional method is achieved by constructing and optimizing ASR-QADB using 6-best recognition results. |
