In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the predetermined conversation sentence includes a plurality of conversation questions and a plurality of conversation answer sentences.

In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the session path is connected between the session simulation areas of the session module.

In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the predetermined session sentence of the session module is connected to the session weight.

The session weight of the session module in the preferred embodiment of the present invention may be selected from a composite weight.

In order to fully understand the present invention, the preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below and are not intended to limit the invention.

The adaptability dynamic adjustment foreign language conversation learning system of the preferred embodiment of the present invention is applicable to various language foreign language conversation learning systems, such as the English conversational learning system, but it is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. The adaptable dynamic adjustment of the preferred language of the preferred embodiment of the present invention is a computer-executable process step, which can be executed on various computer equipment such as a table. Desktop computer, notebook, workstation computer, etc.

1 is a schematic diagram showing the architecture of an adaptive dynamic adjustment foreign language conversation learning system in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, a foreign language conversational learning system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a plurality of conversation-graded sets and a plurality of grade-judging units. The learning level discriminating unit is connected to the session hierarchical group to determine whether the user upgrades or downgrades the switching between the session hierarchical groups, or maintains the original session hierarchical group. The session rating group can be set according to the degree of the session, so that each of the session rating groups is applicable to different session learning levels. Therefore, in the adaptive dynamic adjustment foreign language conversation learning system according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the user can enter the conversation classification group according to different conversation learning degrees, or can adapt the dynamic adjustment according to the user conversation learning degree. The session is grouped into groups.

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the architecture of the session grading group in the foreign language conversation learning system according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 2, each of the session hierarchical groups has a plurality of session topics and at least one session evaluation unit or a plurality of session evaluation units. The conversation theme may include a shopping theme, a restaurant dining theme, a question path theme, or other conversational theme, etc., but is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2 again, each session topic has a session module and a session guide unit, and the session guide unit is connected to the session module. When the session module cannot successfully identify the user response sentence, the session guide unit corresponds to the production The predetermined session sentence of the session module is generated for the user to select. When the user performs a session job, the session module is configured to generate a foreign language conversation statement (eg, a conversation question or a conversation response sentence) with the user, and receive a user response sentence (eg, a conversation response sentence or a conversation question sentence). , then identify the user response sentence.

Referring to FIG. 2 again, the session evaluation unit is connected to one of the session topics, and the session evaluation unit outputs an identification data to the session according to the user response sentence of the session module of the session theme. Session evaluation unit. The session evaluation unit generates an evaluation result according to the user response sentence of the conversation module of the conversation topic.

FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing the architecture of a conversational module in a foreign language conversational learning system in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 3, the session module includes a plurality of predetermined session sentences, a plurality of session weights, and a plurality of session paths, and the plurality of predetermined session sentences form a plurality of session simulation areas. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the predetermined conversation sentence includes a plurality of conversation questions and a plurality of conversation answer sentences, and a plurality of the conversation questions and the plurality of conversation response sentences are appropriately formed corresponding links to form a plurality of the conversations. Simulation area. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the session mode is connected between the session simulation areas of the session module, so that the user can pass the session simulation state of the session simulation area one by one according to the session path. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the predetermined session sentence of the session module is connected to the session weight, so that the user response sentence is successfully recognized in the session module, and the corresponding session weight is generated. The session weight of the session module may be selected from a composite weight, for example, including a session logic weight, a pronunciation accuracy weight, a grammar weight or other weight, but it is not used to limit the present The scope of the invention.

Referring to Figures 2 and 3 again, the session simulation area can be regarded as a session simulation step, which can proceed to the next session simulation area via the session path according to the session context until the entire session theme is completed. When the user operates, the session module is used to generate the conversation sentence, so the operator must provide a user response sentence, the session module receives the user response sentence, and further recognizes the user response sentence. When the session module successfully recognizes the user response sentence, the foreign language will During the execution of the foreign language conversation learning simulation, the speech learning system selects one of the session paths according to the switching situation of the session hierarchical group and/or the user response sentence, so that the user can proceed to the next session. If the session module cannot successfully identify the user response sentence, the session guiding unit is immediately activated, so that the session guiding unit correspondingly generates the predetermined session sentence of the session module for the user to select.

Referring to FIG. 1 again, the learning level discriminating unit has a first predetermined value and a second predetermined value or other discriminating mechanism, but it is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. When the evaluation result of the session evaluation unit of the session classification group is greater than the first predetermined value, the learning level determining unit determines that the evaluation result is Y, and the user can upgrade to the next session classification group; When the highest level of the session hierarchical group is operated, the foreign language conversation learning operation can be ended. When the evaluation result of the session evaluation unit of the session ranking group is less than the first predetermined value but greater than the second predetermined value, it is determined that the evaluation result is N1, and the user must maintain the original session hierarchical group. When the evaluation result of the session evaluation unit of the session ranking group is less than the second predetermined value, it is determined that the evaluation result is N2, and the user must be downgraded to the next session classification group; if the user has operated at the lowest level When the session is grouped, the session hierarchy group must be maintained at the original lowest level.
