Abstract

Recently, urban greening and agriculture have been receiving increased attention, but the cultivation of greenery is not a simple matter in a restricted space. Therefore, we propose Flower Voice, a voice assistant for smartphones that answers questions users will be faced on site, and provides a mechanism for registering the work. The system uses Linked Open Data as a knowledge source, and features improvemnt of accuracy based on user feedback and acquisitions of new data by user participation. This paper presents Plant LOD and an architecture of the sytem, and then evaluates the improvement of the accuracy.
