Summary

This book gives an introduction into Spoken Language Understanding (SLU) and explains its background and implications for future use.

Key Points

SLU is an emerging field
Speech is a natural medium for human-human communication, but is unnatural for human-computer interaction
SLU is a combination of social science and artificial intelligence
Information-theory based approaches are better than knowledge-based approaches
"The human analogy was misguided because machines do things differently than biological beings. Airplanes don’t flap their wings."
