Consumer Voice Interface Patterns

TLDR
In the last years, a pattern language for designing voice applications and documenting the aforementioned design tensions and common practices was began, focusing on more complex issues such as authentication and consumer appliances interfaces.

Speech augmented multitouch interaction patterns

TLDR
This paper introduces design patterns which support developers in exploiting the possibilities of combined voice and touch interaction for newly developed systems, so that interaction with these systems becomes more natural for the respective end users.

WeldVUI: Establishing Speech-Based Interfaces in Industrial Applications

TLDR
This paper describes the iterative, user-centered design process for VUIs and functional speech-based interaction prototypes for the domain of industrial welding, including a two-stage Wizard of Oz procedure, rapid prototyping, speech recognition improvement and thorough user involvement.

Context aware voice user interfaces for workflow support: voice based support for mobile workers

TLDR
This thesis analyses the challenges of audio based interfaces with respect to the humans cognitive capabilities and shows a possible solution using audio design patterns.

Voice Portals Solution for Medical Consultations Appointment

TLDR
This document describes the work done, develop a system of voice response, enabling patients to a particular health institution and on this specific case of Social Services Medical Assistance (SAMS), make appointments, using the phone (or mobile) or any application of Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP), through voice, or using the keyboard of these devices or applications.

I tell you something

TLDR
A pattern language is introduced to design the system output in spoken dialog systems to ensure a good user experience in voice based systems.

A pattern language for error management in voice user interfaces

TLDR
Successful error handling methods can make even applications with poor recognition accuracy more successful, and poorly constructed error handling may bring unwanted complexity to the system and cause new errors and annoyances.

What Can I Say?: Effects of Discoverability in VUIs on Task Performance and User Experience

TLDR
While no significant differences were found between the strategies, a majority of the participants highlighted their preference for the 'What Can I Say?' strategy if they were to use the VUI more frequently, suggesting designers should consider the use of a discoverability strategy in the design of VUIs.

Voice enabling mobile applications with UIVoice

TLDR
This paper presents UIVoice, through which voice assistants (that heavily utilize the cloud) to dynamically interact with mobile applications running in the edge, and presents a framework that can be used by third party developers to easily create Voice User Interfaces on top of existing applications.

On using Conversational Interfaces to Improve the Accessibility of a University Campus

TLDR
Results show that conversational interfaces are highly appreciated by most of the participants and confirm that such interfaces might improve the daily experience of users within a university campus.

Audio Navigation Patterns

TLDR
A first set of patterns integrating many guidelines and solution approaches developed during the past 15 years of Voice User Interface (VUI) designs are introduced.

Curing the menu blues in touch-tone voice interfaces

TLDR
Results obtained from thousands of live calls to a commercial customer service center show that callers route themselves more effectively using the long menu, which reduces the number of menu layers required, thus reducing the need to navigate through multiple menu layers, one of the most severe usability problems of existing touch-tone interfaces.

Voice User Interface Design

TLDR
The voice user interface design is one book that the authors really recommend you to read, to get more solutions in solving this problem.

Robust Speech Recognition in Embedded Systems and PC Applications

TLDR
This work discusses the development of Environment-Independent/Adaptive Speech Recognition from Cost Sensitive Embedded Applications to PC-Based Systems, and the future Outlook for Robust ASR.

Simulating speech systems

Revenue Opportunities in the Voice Enabled Web

TLDR
The BOSS model, (Business Opportunities in Speech Systems) is proposed, which combines the vcommerce infrastructure model presented with the various revenue models introduced, presenting a picture of where in the voice enabled web revenue opportunities exist.

Pattern Languages in HCI: A Critical Review

TLDR
A critical review of patterns and pattern languages in human-computer interaction (HCI) seeks to locatepattern languages in relation to other approaches to interaction design, and explores four key issues.

A Pattern Language - Towns, Buildings, Construction

TLDR
This book will enable a person to make a design for almost any kind of building, or any part of the built environment, which will replace existing ideas and practices entirely.

The Psychology of Menu Selection: Designing Cognitive Control at the Human/Computer Interface

The magical number seven plus or minus two: some limits on our capacity for processing information.

TLDR
The theory provides us with a yardstick for calibrating the authors' stimulus materials and for measuring the performance of their subjects, and the concepts and measures provided by the theory provide a quantitative way of getting at some of these questions.
