Integrating a Spoken Language System with Agents for Operational Information Access

All Papers

Changing the way users interact with their data is the principal objective of the Listen, Communicate, Show (LCS) paradigm. LCS is a new paradigm being applied to Marine Corps tactical logistics. Using a spoken language understanding system a Marine converses with the system to place a supply or information request, which is passed to a mobile, intelligent agent to execute at the proper database. Upon successful return, the agent notifies the spoken language system of its results, and the Marine is given a verbal and/or visual response.
