A system for accessing content maintains a set of content selections associated with a first user. The system receives first original content from a first content source associated with a first one of the content selections associated with the first user. The system applies, to the first original content, a first rule (such as a parsing rule) that is specific to the first one of the content selections, to produce first derived content. The system changes the state of at least one component of a human-machine dialogue system (such as a text-to-act engine, a dialogue manager, or an act-to-text engine) based on the first derived content. The system may apply a second rule (such as a dialogue rule) to the first derived content to produce rule output and change the state of the human-machine dialogue system based on the rule output.

Accessing content using a source-specific content-adaptable dialogue

A system for recognizing speech receives an input speech vector and identifies a Gaussian distribution. The system determines an address from the input speech vector () and uses the address to retrieve a distance value for the Gaussian distribution from a table (). The system then determines the probability of the Gaussian distribution using the distance value () and recognizes the input speech vector based on the determined probability ().
