An electronic apparatus, method, and computer readable medium are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a communicator, and a controller. The controller, based on a first voice input being received, controls the communicator to receive data including first response information corresponding to the first voice input from a server, and outputs the first response information on a display, and based on a second voice input being received, controls the communicator to receive data including second response information corresponding to the second voice input from the server, and outputs the second response information on the display. Based on whether the second voice input is received within a predetermined time from a time corresponding to the output of the first response information, whether a use of utterance history information is identified, and the second response information is displayed differently based on whether the second voice input is received within the predetermined time.

Electronic device providing varying response based on contents included in input, and method and computer readable medium thereof

A display apparatus and a server which implements an interactive system are disclosed. The server includes a communicator which receives text information corresponding to a user voice collected at the display apparatus from the display apparatus, and a controller which extracts an utterance component from the text information and controls so that a query to search contents is generated using the extracted utterance component and transmitted to an external server which categorizes metadata of the content under each item and stores the same, in which the controller generates the query by adding a preset item to a criteria to search a content, when a number of criteria to categorize the content under an item corresponding to the extracted utterance component is less than a preset number.

Server and method for controlling server

Electronic device providing response to voice input, and method and computer readable medium thereof

An interactive server, a control method thereof, and an interactive system are provided. The interactive server includes: a communicator which communicates with a display apparatus to receive an uttered voice signal; a storage device which stores utterance history information of a second uttered voice signal received from the display apparatus before the first uttered voice signal is received; an extractor which extracts uttered elements from the received first uttered voice signal; and a controller which generates response information based on the utterance history information stored in the storage device and the extracted uttered elements and transmits the response information to the display apparatus. Therefore, the interactive server comprehends intentions of the user with respect to various uttered voices of the user to generate response information according to the intentions and transmits the response information to the display apparatus.

Interactive server, control method thereof, and interactive system

An image processing apparatus includes: a user input interface configured to provide a user input according to at least one input method; a storage configured to store a database for biometric information of at least one user which corresponds with at least one identification (IDs) previously registered to the image processing apparatus; a signal processor configured to process a preset service which is provided corresponding to an authenticated identification (ID) in response to a user being authenticated with the ID; and a controller configured to determine whether authentication is performed with regard to one of the IDs in response to an event occurring which identifies a current user, and retrieve and authenticate the ID from the database based on the biometric information of the current user acquired by the user input interface in response to determining that the authentication is not performed with regard to the ID.

Image processing apparatus and control method thereof

An information providing method of a server, including: acquiring at least one of content information corresponding to content displayed on a display apparatus and user information of a user of the display apparatus; extracting at least one question related to the content from a question-answer database based on the at least one of the content information and the user information; and transmitting the extracted at least one question to the display apparatus, wherein the question-answer database is generated based on a question-answer template.

Server, information providing method of server, display apparatus, controlling method of display apparatus and information providing system

A system includes a server and an image processing apparatus, and the server is provided that includes a communication interface, a storage, and a processor. The communication interface is configured to communicate with the image processing apparatus. The storage is configured to store data. The processor may provide a result of processing a first event that includes a speech of a user to the image processing apparatus in response to the first event being received from the image processing apparatus, store a record of the first event in the storage according to processing of the first event, determine a relation between the first and second events that includes a user input by a non-speech method in response to the second event being received from the image processing apparatus, and process the second event based on the record of the first event stored in the storage in response to the relation.

Server for processing speech, control method thereof, image processing apparatus, and control method thereof

A server apparatus is disclosed. The server apparatus includes a communicator configured to receive a text which corresponds to a voice signal input, and a controller configured to, in response to a keyword, which corresponds to the text, not existing from among a keyword included in a mapping table, search for content information belonging to at least one content genre mapped with a synonym of the text, provide a search result to a display apparatus through the communicator, and update the mapping table by adding the synonym as the keyword. Accordingly, the server apparatus may effectively perform search for content information according to voice input.
