Abstract
Technologies for conversational control of a home automation system include a computing device in communication with one or more home automation devices. The computing device receives text input indicative of a spoken user request including one or more parameters associated with a home automation command. The computing device matches the text input against a home automation language model including several predefined dialog patterns. The computing device resolves parameters of the command using a context model. The computing device may resolve the location, device, or requested device state of the command. The computing device generates a text response and a home automation command using the language model, and then presents the text response to the user and performs the home automation command using the home automation devices. In some embodiments, the computing device may control an application automation system or a data exploration system. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
