本文介绍了作为欧盟资助的HOMY项目的一部分，对智能对话系统在医疗保健系统中的应用进行的一些研究。这里提出的工作集中于底层任务结构的知识(例如，医学指南)可以与本体知识(例如，医学语义词典)相结合的方式，以提供自动生成灵活和可重新配置的对话的基础。这种方法接下来通过一个特定的应用程序进行评估，该应用程序为全科医生提供决策支持，以帮助确定是否应该将患者转介给癌症专家。所得到的对话应用的能力、其语音识别性能和对话性能都被评估以确定该方法的适用性。(C)2006 Elsevier Inc.保留所有权利。
This paper presents some research undertaken as part of the EU-funded HOMEY project, into the application of intelligent dialogue systems to healthcare systems. The work presented here concentrates on the ways in which knowledge of underlying task structure (e.g., a medical guideline) can be combined with ontological knowledge (e.g., medical semantic dictionaries) to provide a basis for the automatic generation of flexible and re-configurable dialogue. This approach is next evaluated via a specific application that provides decision support to general practitioners to help determine whether or not a patient should be referred to a cancer specialist. The competence of the resulting dialogue application, its speech recognition performance, and dialogue performance are all evaluated to determine the applicability of this approach.
