An electronic device and method are disclosed herein. The electronic device includes a network interface and processor. The processor implements the method, including receiving a voice input through a network interface as transmitted from a first external device, including a request to execute a function using at least one application which is not indicated in the voice input, extracting a first text from the voice input by executing automatic speech recognition (ASR), when the at least one application is identified based on the first text, transmitting, through the network interface to the first external device, second data associated with the identified at least one application for display by the first external device, and when the at least one application is not identified based at least in part on the first text, reattempting identification of the at least one application by executing natural language understanding (NLU) on the first text.

Voice processing method and electronic device supporting the same

An electronic device includes a touchscreen display, a microphone, at least one speaker, a processor and a memory which stores instructions that cause the processor to receive a user utterance including a request for performing a task with the electronic device, to transmit data associated with the user utterance to an external server, to receive a response from the external server including sample utterances representative of an intent of the user utterance and the sample utterances being selected by the external server based on the user utterance, to display the sample utterances on the touchscreen display, to receive a user input to select one of the sample utterances, and to perform the task by causing the electronic device to follow a sequence of states associated with the selected one of the sample utterances.

Device for performing task corresponding to user utterance

An electronic apparatus includes a touch screen display, a microphone disposed at least one speaker, a wireless communication circuit, a processor, and a memory. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to receive a first user utterance input, to transmit first data associated with the first user utterance input to an external server, to receive a first response, to provide the first sample utterances, to receive a first user input for selecting one of the first sample utterances, to transmit second data associated with the first user input to the external server, and to perform the second task by causing the electronic apparatus to have a sequence of states. The first user utterance input includes a request for performing a first task. The first response includes first sample utterances indicating a second task.

Electronic apparatus for processing user utterance and controlling method thereof

A system for processing a user utterance is provided. The system includes at least one network interface; at least one processor operatively connected to the at least one network interface; and at least one memory operatively connected to the at least one processor, wherein the at least one memory stores a plurality of specified sequences of states of at least one external electronic device, wherein each of the specified sequences is associated with a respective one of domains, wherein the at least one memory further stores instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to receive first data associated with the user utterance provided via a first of the at least one external electronic device, wherein the user utterance includes a request for performing a task using the first of the at least one external device.
