In the present embodiment, the mobile terminal can specify the information range of the database to be referred to for recognition of a voice command by using information related to a specific menu or service area. By specifying the information range or the information search range of the database to be referred to for voice command recognition as described above, it is possible to improve the recognition rate for the voice command and reduce the resource search range by reducing the information search range have.

The information range of the database to be referred to for recognizing the voice command can be configured to be set through the configuration menu of the terminal, and the set information range can be automatically applied as the voice recognition function is activated.

In the following description, it is assumed that the information range of the database set for recognizing the voice command is information related to the menus currently displayed on the display unit 151 or the lower menus of a selected one of the menus .

FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a method of controlling a menu using a voice of a mobile terminal according to the present invention. The controller 180 of the mobile terminal may start activation of a voice recognition function by receiving an activation control signal (S101) . The activation control signal can also be used to terminate the activation of the voice recognition function.

The activation control signal may be generated by a specific hardware button provided in the terminal, a software button displayed on the display unit 151, a touch input, or an operation of a specific menu displayed on the display unit 151. [ Alternatively, it may be generated by a specific sound or sound, a near or far radio signal, or a motion information of the body including a gesture or a gesture of the user.

The specific sound or sound may include a kind of impact sound having a certain level or more as an applause sound. Sounds or sounds above the specific level can be detected using a simple sound level detection algorithm (not shown).

The sound level detection algorithm is relatively simple and consumes less resources of the terminal than the speech recognition algorithm. The sound level detection algorithm (or circuit) may be configured separately from the speech recognition algorithm (or circuit), or may be implemented in a manner that restricts some functions of the speech recognition algorithm.

The wireless signal can be input through the wireless communication unit 110 and the gesture or gesture of the user can be input through the sensing unit 140. [ The wireless communication unit 110, the user input unit 130, and the sensing unit 140 may be collectively referred to as a signal input unit for receiving the activation control signal or a signal for instructing selection and execution of a specific function or menu.

When the voice recognition function is activated, the controller 180 refers to a specific database, analyzes the context or content of the voice command input through the microphone 122, The meaning can be judged (S103, S104).

Here, the database that is referred to recognize the meaning of the voice command may be specified as information related to a specific function or a menu in a domain in which the voice recognition function is activated (S102). For example, the specified information range may be specified as information related to menus output to the display unit 151 or submenus of a specific menu selected from the menus.

As described above, by specifying the information range of the database to be referred to in order to recognize the voice command, the recognition rate for the voice command can be further increased.

The information related to the lower menus may be composed of a database.

The information may be in the form of a key word, and a plurality of pieces of information may correspond to one function or menu. In addition, the database may be composed of a plurality of databases according to the characteristics of the information, and may be stored in the memory 160. In addition, the information configured in each database may be updated through learning. In addition, the information of each database may be specified as information related to functions or menus currently being output, in order to improve the recognition rate of voice commands. Further, the information range may be changed as the depth of the menu becomes deeper.

The semantic determination operation of the voice command can be performed immediately after the voice command is temporarily stored or when the voice recognition function is activated, or when the voice command is input while the voice recognition function is activated.

On the other hand, even if the voice recognition function is in the activated state, the control unit 180 can continuously drive an algorithm for detecting touch or input of a button. Accordingly, the control unit 180 may select or execute a specific menu through other input means such as a touch or a button other than a voice command in a state in which the voice recognition function is activated (S109, S110).

If the meaning of the voice command is determined, the controller 180 can output the result (S105). The resultant value is used to execute a menu corresponding to the meaning of the voice command or a service, a control signal for controlling a specific component of the terminal, or data for displaying information related to the recognized voice command .

Meanwhile, when the result is output or executed, the controller 180 may receive confirmation from the user whether the result is correct (S106). For example, when the recognition rate of the voice command is low or it is recognized as a plurality of meanings, the controller 180 outputs a plurality of menus related to each meaning, Or simply whether or not a specific menu having a high recognition rate is executed, and can execute or display a corresponding function or a menu by receiving a selection or a response from the user.

The user can confirm whether the specific menu is executed or not by outputting a message or voice (for example, if the user does not respond to the photo album menu after 5 seconds, the photo album menu is automatically executed ).

Accordingly, the user can respond by using voice or other input means (for example, 1. Yes or 2. No), and the other input means may be a hardware button, a software button, As shown in FIG. If there is no response from the user, the controller 180 determines that the response is an affirmative response and can automatically execute the function or menu (S107).

If the user's response is negative, that is, if the meaning of the voice command can not be accurately determined, an error process can be performed (S108).

The error process may include receiving a voice command again or displaying a plurality of menus having a specific recognition rate or more (or a plurality of menus that can be interpreted in a similar meaning), and then selecting one of the menus Can receive. If a function or a menu having a specific recognition rate or more is less than a specific number (for example, two), the function or menu can be automatically executed.

FIG. 6A is an exemplary diagram illustrating a method for activating a voice recognition function of a mobile terminal according to the present invention. FIG.

When the speech recognition function is kept in the activated state, resource consumption and power consumption are increased according to the continuous operation of the speech recognition algorithm. Therefore, it is necessary to control activation start and end of the voice recognition function in order to prevent unnecessary power consumption of the mobile terminal and to reduce resource consumption.

Accordingly, in the present invention, an arbitrary button included in the user input unit 130 may be input to control activation (410). The arbitrary button may be a hardware button or a software button or an icon 411 displayed on the display unit 151. [

The software button includes a menu call button in a standby state.

That is, when the menu call button is inputted in the standby state, the control unit 180 can simultaneously activate the voice recognition function while outputting the menu list.

The control unit 180 may control the activation of the voice recognition function when an arbitrary area (area where no button or menu icon is displayed) is touched on the display unit 151 ).

In addition, the controller 180 may control activation of the voice recognition function when a sound or sound of a specific level or higher is input (430). For example, in the present invention, the voice recognition function can be driven in two modes. That is, it is possible to operate in a first mode for simply detecting a sound or sound of a specific level or higher, and a second mode for recognizing a voice command and determining the meaning of the voice command. In the first mode, The voice command can be recognized by activating the second mode.

In addition, activation of the voice recognition function can be controlled (440) when the operation information of the body including the local or long distance wireless signal or the gesture or gesture of the user is input.

As described above, the control unit 180 can specify the information range of a specific database that can be referred to for voice recognition as information related to the menu list displayed on the display unit 151 have. If a specific menu is selected or executed in the menu list, the information range of the database may be specified as information related to the selected menu or its submenus.

In addition, when the specific menu is selected or executed by voice command or touch input, the controller 180 can output help information related to the lower menus in a voice or balloon help format.

For example, as shown in FIG. 6B, when 'multimedia menu' is selected, information related to the submenus (eg, broadcasting, camera, text viewer, game, etc.) is displayed as help information 441 and 442 Can be output.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 6C, if the finger is approaching for a menu touch to select a particular menu, a submenu list 443 may be output. When the help information is outputted to the display unit 151, the transparency and the contrast can be adjusted according to the approach distance.

The control unit 180 may terminate the activation state automatically after maintaining the activation state for a predetermined time. Also, the controller 180 may maintain the activated state only while a specific button or touch is being input, and may terminate the activated state when the input is released. In addition, the controller 180 may automatically terminate the activation state if no voice is input for a predetermined time after the activation state is started.

7A is a flowchart illustrating a voice command recognizing method of a mobile terminal according to the present invention.

As the voice recognition function is activated as described above, the controller 180 specifies the information range of the database, which can be referred to in voice recognition, as the menu list displayed on the display unit 151 or information related to the lower menus thereof (S201).

The voice command input after the voice recognition function is activated may be stored in a specific database of the memory 160 (S202, S203).

When the voice command is input in the state that the information range is specified as described above, the controller 180 analyzes the contents and context of the voice command within the specified information range of the database using the voice recognition algorithm. The voice command can be converted into text format information for analysis, and the text format information can be stored in a specific database of the memory 160 (S204). However, the voice command does not necessarily have to be converted into text format information.

The controller 180 may detect a specific word or key word included in the voice command for analysis of content and context (S205). The contents or the context of the voice command can be analyzed by referring to the information stored in the specific database based on the detected word or key word, and the meaning thereof can be determined (S206). Then, the referenced database can specify the range of the information, and execute a function or a menu corresponding to the meaning of the voice command determined by referring to the database (S207).

As described above, since the information range for speech recognition is specified as information related to specific menus, speed and recognition rate for speech recognition can be improved and resource consumption can be reduced. The recognition rate may mean a degree matching with a name set in a specific menu.

The recognition rate of the voice command can be determined based on the number of information related to a specific function or menu among the information included in the voice command. Accordingly, the recognition rate of the voice command may be higher when the voice command includes information (e.g., a menu name) exactly matching a specific function or menu.

For example, assuming that the voice command is input as a six-word natural language (e.g., I want to see my pictures) as shown in FIG. 7B, The recognition rate can be determined by the number of words (eg, see, pictures). Whether the word included in the voice command is a meaningful word related to a specific function or a menu may differ depending on information stored in the database. For example, in the natural language voice command (for example, I want to see my pictures), a meaningless word irrelevant to a menu may be grammatically a subject I or a prepositional phrase or a possessive pronoun my.

The natural language is a concept called a language that people commonly use as a language, separated from an artificial language, which is an artificially created language, and can be processed using a natural language processing algorithm. Since the natural language may or may not include the exact name associated with a particular menu, it may be difficult to accurately recognize the voice command 100% accurately. Therefore, when the recognition rate is more than a specific value (for example, 80%), it can be determined that the recognition accuracy is correct. When there are a plurality of meanings with the recognition rate (that is, , The corresponding menus are displayed, and at least one function or a menu can be executed by the user's selection.

In displaying the menus, the menus having a relatively high recognition rate can be displayed.

For example, as shown in FIG. 8, a menu icon having a high recognition rate may be displayed closer to the center of the screen (510). Alternatively, a menu icon with a high recognition rate may be displayed larger or darker (520).

Also, at least one of the size, the position, the color, and the contrast can be displayed differently according to the order of the recognition rate among the plurality of menus, and highlighting or transparency can be adjusted.

At this time, the recognition rate of the menu having a high degree of user's selectivity among the plurality of displayed menus can be changed higher. That is, the recognition rate can learn the number of times that the user frequently selects a menu, and change the recognition rate for the selected menu. Therefore, the recognition rate may be different for a voice command inputted after the same or similar pronunciation or contents.

9 is a diagram for explaining a voice command recognizing method of a mobile terminal according to the present invention.

If a specific menu (e.g., a multimedia menu) is selected by the user in the standby state, the controller 180 displays submenus of the selected menu (610).

Then, the voice recognition function is activated internally.

When the activation of the voice recognition function is started, the control unit 180 specifies the information range of the database for recognizing the voice command as information related to the displayed lower menus 610, according to a predetermined configuration option .

In the state where the lower menus are displayed as described above, the controller 180 can select a specific menu 621 by receiving a voice command, a touch, or a button of the user. When the specific menu 621 is selected by receiving a voice command, a touch or a button input, the controller 180 may display the submenus (620).

When a natural language voice command (for example, I want to see my pictures) is input in the state 620 in which the sub menu is displayed, the controller 180 determines whether a natural language voice command A meaningful word or key word (e.g., see, pictures) is detected, and a meaning of the highest recognition rate is determined by comparing the information with information related to the submenus in a specific database.

Then, a menu (e.g., photo album) related to the determined meaning is executed.

At this time, although the exact name of the menu is "photo album ", a plurality of pieces of information such as" photo, picture, album "

In addition, when the specific menu is selected or executed by voice command or touch input according to the operation state of the terminal or the operation mode (for example, a mode for guiding the voice recognition function) 6A to 6C, the help information related to the sub-menus can be output to the balloon help in voice or text format.

The operation mode for outputting the help information can be set with an option related to the environment setting menu. Accordingly, the present invention can control a menu related to a specific function or service by a button, a touch input, and a voice command regardless of the skill of the user with respect to the voice command.

On the other hand, when a plurality of meanings of the voice commands are recognized, that is, when the names of the correct menus are not included in the natural voice command, they are included in the " The control unit 180 can display a plurality of menus having a recognition rate equal to or higher than a specific value (for example, 80%) when it is not possible to determine which menu the user wants to select have.

However, when there are less than two menus having a recognition rate higher than a specific value, the corresponding function or menu can be automatically executed.

10 is an exemplary diagram illustrating a configuration of a database for voice command recognition of a mobile terminal according to the present invention.

The database stores information for determining the meaning of a voice command, and a plurality of databases can be configured according to characteristics of the information. Each of the databases configured according to the characteristics of the information can update the information through continuous learning under the control of the control unit 180.

For example, when the user pronounces "birthday" but is recognized as "living ", the user selects" life "as" birthday " So that the same pronunciation can be recognized as "birthday" from then on.

Through the learning, a plurality of pieces of voice information can be associated with each piece of information in the database.

Each database according to the characteristics of the information includes a first database 161 for storing voice information for recognizing voice inputted through a microphone in units of phonemes, syllables or morpheme units, (E.g., grammar, pronunciation accuracy, sentence structure, etc.) for determining the overall meaning of the sentence, a third database 162 for storing information related to menus for functions or services provided in the mobile terminal, And a fourth database 164 for storing message or voice information to be output from the terminal in order to confirm the meaning of the determined voice command from the user.

The third database 163 can be specified by information related to menus of specific categories according to the information range set for the voice command recognition described above.

Each database may store phonemes, syllables, morphemes, words, key words, or sentence information corresponding to speech (pronunciation) information and its voice (pronunciation) information.

Accordingly, the control unit 180 performs an operation of determining the meaning included in the voice command using at least one of the plurality of databases 161 to 164, and performs a function corresponding to the meaning of the voice command determined The menu related to the service can be executed.

11 is an exemplary diagram illustrating a method for indicating that a voice command recognition function is performed in a mobile terminal according to the present invention.

As shown in the figure, the present invention can display an operation state or an operation mode to which a voice command recognition function is applied by using an indicator (500) or icon of a specific shape. A specific sound or voice may be output and the user may be notified when the indicator or icon is output.

FIG. 12 is an exemplary diagram for explaining a method of performing a telephone call using voice commands in a mobile terminal according to the present invention.

When the activation control signal is input, the control unit 180 starts activation of the voice recognition function. After the voice recognition function is activated as described above, the control unit 180 receives a voice command or a user's operation by another component and executes a menu related to the telephone call (e.g., a telephone directory or a recent call list menu) I suppose.

When the menu related to the telephone conversation is executed as described above, the control unit 180 can specify the information range of the database to be referred to in speech recognition as information related to the telephone conversation. Therefore, the information range may include information related to each of the outgoing call, outgoing call, missed call, and each call (e.g., transmission time, outgoing time, sender, recipient, talk time, number of calls, etc.).

As described above, the control unit 180 receives a user's operation by voice or other components, displays a telephone call list, and displays a natural language voice command (for example, I assume that the desired phone calls have been entered (711).

When the voice command is input as described above, the controller 180 can detect meaningful words (e.g., see, received, phone, calls) related to the phone call in the specified information range. Then, it is possible to analyze the overall contents and the context of the detected word and the voice command, and determine that the meaning means outputting the received telephone list.

If the meaning of the voice command is determined as described above, the controller 180 can output the received telephone list (712). Further, it is assumed that another voice command (e.g., Call this person) of the user is inputted while an arbitrary item in the list is selected. Accordingly, the control unit 180 can determine that the meaning of the voice command input is to perform a telephone call to the other party of the selected receiving telephone item through the above-described procedure.

If the meaning of the voice command is determined as described above, the controller 180 can receive confirmation from the user as to whether the determined meaning is correct. A voice message for confirming the user can be output, and a message in text format can be output (713).

If a message for confirming the user is output, the user can respond using voice or other input means. If there is no response from the user, the controller 180 determines that the response is an affirmative response, (714). ≪ / RTI >

On the other hand, in the above embodiment, when a user selects a party in the phone call list and then inputs a command for instructing a phone call to the selected party, if the user knows information about the other party, have.

13 is an exemplary diagram for explaining a method of using phone book information as voice commands in a mobile terminal according to the present invention.

When the activation control signal is input, the control unit 180 starts activation of the voice recognition function. After the voice recognition function is activated as described above, it is assumed that the controller 180 selects or executes a specific menu (e.g., a phonebook menu) by receiving a voice command or a user's operation by another component.

When the phone book menu is executed as described above, the controller 180 can specify the information range of the database to be referred to in the voice recognition as information related to the sub-menu related to the phone book or the sub-command that can be executed in the phone book menu. The reason for setting the information range to be referred to in the speech recognition as described above is to improve the recognition rate and does not necessarily specify the information range.

The control unit 180 assumes that a natural language voice command (for example, Edit James, Add James, Find James, Call James, and I want to send Message to James) is input in a state where a menu related to the standby state or the phone book is selected ).

When the voice command is input as described above, the controller 180 can detect meaningful words (e.g., Edit, Add, Find, Call, Send Message, James) related to the telephone call in the specified information range. The meaning of each voice command can be determined by analyzing the overall contents and the context of the detected word and voice command.

If the meaning of the voice command is determined as described above, the controller 180 can execute a function or a menu corresponding to each voice command (722 to 724). The user can be confirmed whether or not the determined meaning is correct before executing the function. A voice message may be output to receive the confirmation of the user, and a text message may be output.

If a message for confirming the user is output, the user can respond using voice or other input means. If there is no response from the user, the controller 180 determines that the response is an affirmative response, Function can be executed automatically.

FIG. 14 is a diagram for explaining a method of changing a background screen by a voice command in a mobile terminal according to the present invention.

When the activation control signal is input, the control unit 180 starts activation of the voice recognition function. After the voice recognition function is activated as described above, it is assumed that the controller 180 receives a voice command or a user's operation by another component and executes a specific menu (e.g., a photo album menu).

The photo album menu may be executed via a multi-level submenu by voice commands or other components in order to execute. In this embodiment, the photo album menu may be executed by a natural language voice command (for example, I want to see my photo album) The menu can be executed (731).

The control unit 180 may execute a photo album menu according to the determined meaning of the voice command to output a photo list (732). Then, any one of the above-mentioned list of photographs can be selected.

If a voice command (for example, Change my wall paper using this picture) is input from the user in a state where any one of the pictures is selected, the controller 180 displays meaningful information related to the sub- For example, change, wall paper) can be detected.

Based on the detected information, the overall context and contents of the voice command can be analyzed and its meaning can be determined. That is, the control unit 180 may determine that the meaning of the input voice command is to change the background picture to the selected picture.

If the meaning of the voice command is determined as described above, the controller 180 can receive confirmation from the user as to whether the determined meaning is correct. In order to receive the confirmation of the user, a voice message may be output (733) and a text message may be output (734). If the determined command has a high recognition rate or can be executed immediately without confirmation from the user according to the preset configuration option.

When a message for confirming the user is output, the user can respond using voice or other input means. If there is no response from the user, the controller 180 determines that the received response is an affirmative response, Can be executed automatically.

On the other hand, in order to change the background screen, the photo album menu does not necessarily have to be executed first as in the embodiment, and the user can search for and change the desired photo after executing the background screen menu.

15 is a diagram for explaining a method of reproducing a multimedia file by voice commands in a mobile terminal according to the present invention.

When the activation control signal is input, the control unit 180 starts activation of the voice recognition function. After the voice recognition function is activated as described above, it is assumed that the controller 180 receives a voice command or a user's operation by another component and executes a specific menu (e.g., a multimedia playback menu).

Generally, in order for a user to play a multimedia file, after executing the specific menu, one of the submenus is selected to display a file list, and one file is selected and played back from the file list. However, in the present invention, a multimedia file desired by a user can be immediately found and reproduced by voice commands.

For example, when a specific voice command (e.g., Move to the Beetles album) is input after the voice recognition function is activated, the controller 180 analyzes the overall contents and the context of the voice command to determine the meaning thereof (741). The analyzed information may be used to execute a specific function or menu, or move to a specific file folder to display a file list (742).

When a voice command (e.g., Play this song, Play number 3) is inputted after selecting one of the files in the file list, the controller 180 analyzes the overall contents and context of the voice command and determines its meaning . The recognition rate of the determined voice command is high or a function or a menu corresponding to the meaning of the determined voice command may be executed immediately according to the preset configuration option (744).

Alternatively, if the meaning of the voice command is determined, the controller 180 can receive confirmation from the user as to whether the determined meaning is correct. A text message or a voice message for confirming the user can be output (743).

When a message for confirming the user is output, the user can respond using voice or other input means. If there is no response from the user, the controller 180 determines that the received command is an affirmative response, .

Meanwhile, in the above embodiment, if a file to be reproduced is selected and a reproduction command of the selected file is inputted by voice, if the file name is known, the file name can be directly input and played back in a voice command in an upper menu step.
