Display control device and display control method
Provided is a display control device to perform, on a display device having display regions in which a plurality of applications each are displayed, display control based on a speech content of a spoken voice. A display controller of the display control device acquires first information allowing identification of at least one application related to the speech content from among the plurality of applications and second information allowing identification of at least one processing target in processing to be performed by the at least one application. The at least one processing target is related to the speech content. The display controller performs control to cause, in a display region identified based on the first information, the at least one processing target identified based on the second information. The at least one processing target is a processing target in processing to be performed by the application to be displayed.
1. A display control device to perform, on a display device having display regions in which a plurality of applications each are displayed, display control based on a speech content of a spoken voice, the display control device comprising:
a processor to execute a program; and
a memory to store the program which, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform processes of
acquiring first information and second information, the first information allowing identification of applications related to the speech content from among the plurality of applications, the second information allowing identification of a plurality of processing targets to be potentially processed by the applications, the plurality of processing targets being related to the speech content, and
performing control to cause the display device to simultaneously display, in different ones of the display regions each displaying a corresponding one of the applications identified based on the first information, respective textual lists of recognition candidates determined according to recognition of the spoken voice,
wherein each of the textual lists includes as a recognition candidate at least one of the plurality of processing targets to be potentially processed by the corresponding one of the applications.
2. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the processes performed by the processor further include
recognizing the spoken voice,
referencing a database in which the speech content acquired by recognizing the spoken voice, the first information, and the second information are associated, and
outputting the first information and the second information related to the speech content, and
the memory stores the database.
3. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the processes performed by the processor further include
managing display region information representing a correspondence between the applications and the display regions to display the respective applications, and
identifying, based on the display region information, a display region to display the at least one application identified based on the first information.
4. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the processes performed by the processor further include
providing identification symbols not overlapping one another to the respective processing targets, and
causing each of the plurality of processing targets to be displayed, along with each of the identification symbols, in the corresponding display region as a recognition candidate.
5. The display control device according to claim 4 , wherein
the processes performed by the processor further include
providing the identification symbols to the respective processing targets in accordance with a degree of priority determined in advance for each of the display regions to display the recognition candidate.
6. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the processes performed by the processor further include
calculating acoustic reliabilities for the respective plurality of processing targets, each acoustic reliability representing a likelihood that the corresponding one of the plurality of processing targets was correctly recognized from the spoken voice; and
causing the one of the plurality of processing targets having the highest acoustic reliability to be displayed as an emphasized recognition candidate relative to the other recognition targets displayed in the textual lists.
7. A display control device to perform, on a display device having display regions in which a plurality of applications each are displayed, display control based on a speech content of a spoken voice, the display control device comprising:
a processor to execute a program; and
a memory to store the program which, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform processes of
acquiring first information and second information, the first information allowing identification of at least one application related to the speech content from among the plurality of applications, the second information allowing identification of at least one processing target in processing to be performed by the at least one application, the at least one processing target being related to the speech content, and
performing control to cause the display device to display, in one of the display regions to display one application identified based on the first information, processing targets in processing to be performed by the one application as recognition candidates, the processing targets being identified based on the second information, or to cause the display device to display, in two or more of the display regions to respectively display two or more applications identified based on the first information, at least one processing target in processing to be performed by each of the two or more applications as a recognition candidate, the at least one processing target being identified based on the second information, wherein
the processes performed by the processor further include
causing the at least one processing target to be displayed as the recognition candidate within an upper limit of the number of recognition candidates to be displayed determined in advance for each of the display regions.
8. A display control method of performing, on a display device having display regions in which a plurality of applications each are displayed, display control based on a speech content of a spoken voice, the display control method comprising:
acquiring first information and second information, the first information allowing identification of applications related to the speech content from among the plurality of applications, the second information allowing identification of a plurality of processing targets to be potentially processed by the at least one application, the plurality of processing targets being related to the speech content; and
performing control to cause the display device to simultaneously display, in different ones of the display regions each displaying a corresponding one of the applications identified based on the first information, respective textual lists of recognition candidates determined according to recognition of the spoken voice,
wherein each of the textual lists includes as a recognition candidate at least one of the plurality of processing targets to be potentially processed by the corresponding one of the applications.
