Abstract

Communication between human and robot is necessary for an intelligent robot to be active in daily life. Conversation is the basis of communication. Most of the instructions given to a robot are related to some actions. This paper reports the method to generate the action of the humanoid robot by conversation. For this purpose, comprehension of action instruction written by natural language is necessary. The system to understand natural language for generating action is proposed. This system consists of a semantic understanding method to arrange input information, the knowledge base of vocabulary related to actions, the knowledge base of the parameter for robots to act, and association mechanism to handle a word, which is not known. The system is capable of understanding many input sentences by the association mechanism using Concept-Base and a degree of association.
