  • Abstract
    We describe a demonstration of a novel vocal user interface (VUI), ALADIN, which is trained through usage, by demonstrating spoken commands with manual controls. It works by mining the vocal commands to find recurrent acoustic patterns corresponding to words or phrases that constitute elements of the user´s commands. The demonstration consists of the VUI controlling a 3D environment with home automation devices such as lights and doors, as well as an actual home automation setup. Additionally, a tablet interface is provided for feedback and manual control.
