Records disambiguation in a multimodal application operating on a multimodal device

摘要

Methods, apparatus, and products are disclosed for record disambiguation in a multimodal application operating on a multimodal device, the multimodal device supporting multiple modes of interaction including at least a voice mode and a visual mode, that include: prompting, by the multimodal application, a user to identify a particular record among a plurality of records; receiving, by the multimodal application in response to the prompt, a voice utterance from the user; determining, by the multimodal application, that the voice utterance ambiguously identifies more than one of the plurality of records; generating, by the multimodal application, a user interaction to disambiguate the records ambiguously identified by the voice utterance in dependence upon record attributes of the records ambiguously identified by the voice utterance; and selecting, by the multimodal application for further processing, one of the records ambiguously identified by the voice utterance in dependence upon the user interaction.
