Claims

A computer-implemented method comprising:
an interactive system initiating an interactive session;
the dialog system receiving a first voice input;
said dialogue system detecting a pause in said first speech input indicating completion of a first spoken utterance;
determining a stopping condition for the interactive session based on the first spoken utterance, the stopping condition indicating a first time value for extending the interactive session; The method further comprises:
the dialog system determining that the stopping condition for the dialog session has not been met;
and responsive to determining that the stopping condition is not met, extending the interactive session by at least the first time value indicated by the stopping condition.

further comprising the interaction system determining that the interaction session is in a particular state among a plurality of configured states;
2. The method of claim 1, wherein the dialog system determines the stopping condition for the dialog session based on the determined state.

said dialog system generating a response based on said first voice input;
3. A method according to claim 1 or 2, further comprising the step of said dialogue system outputting said response.

4. The method of claim 3, wherein generating the response and outputting the response are performed before determining that the stopping condition is not met.

the dialog system receiving a second voice input;
said dialogue system detecting a second pause in said second speech input indicating completion of a second spoken utterance;
determining, based on the second spoken utterance, a second stopping condition for the interactive session, the second stopping condition extending the interactive session; A method according to any one of claims 1 to 4 , exhibiting two time values.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein the dialog system further comprises identifying intent based on the first voice input and the second voice input.

said dialog system generating a response based on one or more of said first voice input or said second voice input;
7. A method according to claim 5 or 6, further comprising the step of said dialog system outputting said response.

determining, after the step of outputting the response, that the second stopping condition is met;
8. The method of claim 7, further comprising: said interactive system terminating said interactive session.

of claims 5-8, wherein the dialog system determines the second stopping condition based on one or more of the length of the pause, the first voice input or the second voice input. A method according to any one of paragraphs.

Initiating the interactive session comprises:
A method according to any preceding claim, comprising one or more of: detecting a wake word; or detecting interaction with a start button.

the dialog system receiving a third voice input;
determining, based on the third voice input and the first voice input, that the third voice input is not related to the first voice input;
The method of any one of claims 1-10 , further comprising the step of said dialog system ignoring said third voice input.

A computer readable program for executing the method of any one of claims 1-11 by one or more processors.

a system,
one or more processors;
a memory coupled to the one or more processors, the memory storing a plurality of instructions executable by the one or more processors, the plurality of instructions comprising the one or more comprising instructions that, when executed by a plurality of processors, cause said one or more processors to perform a process, said process comprising:
initiating an interactive session;
receiving a first audio input;
detecting a pause in the first speech input indicating completion of a first spoken utterance;
determining a stopping condition for the interactive session based on the first spoken utterance, the stopping condition indicating a first time value for extending the interactive session, the process further comprising:
determining that the stopping condition for the interactive session has not been met;
and, in response to determining that the stopping condition has not been met, extending the interactive session by at least the first time value indicated by the stopping condition.
