Abstract

An in-vehicle speech interaction method and a device are provided. The method includes: obtaining user speech information; determining a user instruction based on the user speech information; determining, based on the user instruction, whether response content to the user instruction is privacy-related; and determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode, to protect privacy from being leaked.

Claims (47)

1 . An in-vehicle speech interaction method, comprising:

obtaining user speech information;

determining a user instruction based on the user speech information;

determining, based on the user instruction, whether response content to the user instruction is privacy-related; and

determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises: obtaining a user image; and the determining a user instruction based on the user speech information is specifically:

determining a gaze direction of a user based on the user image;

when determining that the gaze direction is a target direction, determining that an intention of the user is to perform human-computer interaction; and

determining the user instruction based on the user speech information sent when the gaze direction is the target direction.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode is specifically: if it is determined that the response content is privacy-related and the user is in a single-person scenario, outputting the response content in a non-privacy mode.

4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode is specifically: if it is determined that the response content is privacy-related and the user is in a multi-person scenario, outputting the response content in the privacy protection mode.

5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode is specifically: if it is determined that the response content is privacy-related, outputting the response content in the privacy protection mode.

6 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the outputting the response content in the privacy protection mode is specifically:

when outputting the response content by using a public device, hiding private content comprised in the response content; or

outputting the response content by using a non-public device.

7 . An apparatus, comprising at least one processor and a memory, wherein the at least one processor is coupled to the memory;

the memory is configured to store a computer program; and

the at least one processor is configured to execute the computer program stored in the memory, so that the apparatus performs the method comprising:

obtaining user speech information;

determining a user instruction based on the user speech information;

determining, based on the user instruction, whether response content to the user instruction is privacy-related; and

determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode.

8 . The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the method further comprises: obtaining a user image; and the determining a user instruction based on the user speech information is specifically:

determining a gaze direction of a user based on the user image;

when determining that the gaze direction is a target direction, determining that an intention of the user is to perform human-computer interaction; and

determining the user instruction based on the user speech information sent when the gaze direction is the target direction.

9 . The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode is specifically: if it is determined that the response content is privacy-related and the user is in a single-person scenario, outputting the response content in a non-privacy mode.

10 . The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode is specifically: if it is determined that the response content is privacy-related and the user is in a multi-person scenario, outputting the response content in the privacy protection mode.

11 . The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode is specifically: if it is determined that the response content is privacy-related, outputting the response content in the privacy protection mode.

12 . The apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the outputting the response content in the privacy protection mode is specifically:

when outputting the response content by using a public device, hiding private content comprised in the response content; or

outputting the response content by using a non-public device.

13 . A computer-readable storage medium, wherein the computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program or instructions, and when the computer program or the instructions are run, to implement the method comprising:

obtaining user speech information;

determining a user instruction based on the user speech information;

determining, based on the user instruction, whether response content to the user instruction is privacy-related; and

determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode.

14 . The computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13 , wherein the method further comprises: obtaining a user image; and the determining a user instruction based on the user speech information is specifically:

determining a gaze direction of a user based on the user image;

when determining that the gaze direction is a target direction, determining that an intention of the user is to perform human-computer interaction; and

determining the user instruction based on the user speech information sent when the gaze direction is the target direction.

15 . The computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13 , wherein the determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode is specifically: if it is determined that the response content is privacy-related and the user is in a single-person scenario, outputting the response content in a non-privacy mode.

16 . The computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13 , wherein the determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode is specifically: if it is determined that the response content is privacy-related and the user is in a multi-person scenario, outputting the response content in the privacy protection mode.

17 . The computer-readable storage medium according to claim 13 , wherein the determining, based on whether the response content is privacy-related, whether to output the response content in a privacy protection mode is specifically: if it is determined that the response content is privacy-related, outputting the response content in the privacy protection mode.

18 . The computer-readable storage medium according to claim 16 , wherein the outputting the response content in the privacy protection mode is specifically:

when outputting the response content by using a public device, hiding private content comprised in the response content; or

outputting the response content by using a non-public device.
