What you say is not what you get: Arguing for Artificial Languages Instead of Natural Languages in Human Robot Speech Interaction

Abstract

The project described hereunder focuses on the design and implementation of a “Artificial Robotic Interaction Language", where the research goal is to find a balance between the effort necessary from the user to learn a new language and the resulting benefit of optimized automatic speech recognition for a robot or a machine. We also discuss the rationale of creating our artificial language and highlight the possibility of improving speech recognition by virtue of an artificial language. In conclusion we present the methodology by which we have designed an initial vocabulary of our artificial language.
