Abstract

A voice recognizer 3 generates plural voice recognition results from one input speech 2. For each of the voice recognition results, an intent understanding processor 7 estimates an intent to thereby output one or more candidates of intent understanding results and scores of them. A weight calculator 11 calculates standby weights using setting information 9 of a control target apparatus. An intent understanding corrector 12 corrects the scores of the candidates of intent understanding result, using the standby weights, to thereby calculate their final scores, and then selects one from among the candidates of intent understanding result, as an intent understanding result 13, on the basis of the final scores.
