Abstract:
Systems and processes for device voice control are provided. An example process includes, at an electronic device, receiving a spoken user input and interpreting the spoken user input to derive a representation of user intent. The process further includes determining whether a task may be identified based on the representation of user intent. In accordance with a determination that a task may be identified based on the representation of user intent, the task is performed, and in accordance with a determination that a task may not be identified based on the representation of user intent, the spoken user input is disambiguated.
Abstract:
The method is performed at an electronic device with one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors. A first speech input including at least one word is received. A first phonetic representation of the at least one word is determined, the first phonetic representation comprising a first set of phonemes selected from a speech recognition phonetic alphabet. The first set of phonemes is mapped to a second set of phonemes to generate a second phonetic representation, where the second set of phonemes is selected from a speech synthesis phonetic alphabet. The second phonetic representation is stored in association with a text string corresponding to the at least one word.
