US 2022/0020358 A1 · ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR PROCESSING USER UTTERANCE AND OPERATION METHOD THEREFOR

Abstract

According to various embodiments, provided is a control operation comprising: receiving a first utterance from a device; determining a specific category corresponding to the received first utterance from among a plurality of categories; determining a first domain for processing of the first utterance from among a plurality of domains related to the determined specific category; acquiring information enabling an operation corresponding to the first utterance to be performed based on the determined first domain; receiving a second utterance from the device; identifying whether processing of the second utterance is possible in the determined first domain; based on identifying that the processing of the second user utterance based on the first domain is not possible, checking a second domain among the plurality of domains, and identifying whether processing of the second utterance based on the second domain is possible; and based on identifying that the processing of the second utterance based on the second domain is possible, acquiring information enabling an operation corresponding to the second utterance to be performed based on the second domain. An operation of determining a domain corresponding to a user utterance of the electronic device may be performed using an artificial intelligence model.

Dependent claims

A method of operating an electronic device, the method comprising:

receiving a first utterance from a device;
determining a specific category corresponding to the received first utterance from among a plurality of categories;
determining a first domain for processing the first utterance from among a plurality of domains related to the determined specific category;
obtaining information causing an operation corresponding to the first utterance to be performed based on the determined first domain;
receiving a second utterance from the device;
identifying whether the second utterance is capable of being processed in the determined first domain;
based on identifying that the second user utterance is not capable of being processed based on of the first domain, identifying a second domain among the plurality of domains and identifying whether second utterance is capable of being processed based on the second domain;
and
based on identifying that the second utterance is capable of being processed based on the second domain, obtaining information causing an operation corresponding to the second utterance to be performed based on the second domain.

at least one communication circuit;
and
at least one processor operatively connected to the at least one communication circuit,
wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
control the at least one communication circuit to receive a first utterance from a device;
determine a specific category corresponding to the received first utterance from among a plurality of categories;
determine a first domain for processing the first utterance from among a plurality of domains related to the determined specific category;
obtain information causing an operation corresponding to the first utterance to be performed based on the determined the determined first domain;
control the at least one communication circuit to receive a second utterance from the device;
identify whether the second utterance is capable of being processed in the determined first domain;
based on identifying that the second utterance is not capable of being processed based on the first domain, identify a second domain from among the plurality of domains and identify whether the second utterance is capable of being processed based on the second domain;
and
based on identifying that the second utterance is capable of being processed based on the second domain, obtain information causing an operation corresponding to the second utterance to be performed based on the second domain.
