Abstract

A speech interface device is configured to receive response data from a remote speech processing system for responding to user speech. This response data may be enhanced with information such as remote NLU data. The response data from the remote speech processing system may be compared to local NLU data to improve a speech processing model on the device. Thus, the device may perform supervised on-device learning based on the remote NLU data. The device may determine differences between the updated speech processing model and an original speech processing model received from the remote system and may send data indicating these differences to the remote system. The remote system may aggregate data received from a plurality of devices and may generate an improved speech processing model.
