Enhancing Speech Instruction Understanding and Disambiguation in Robotics via Speech Prosody
Enabling robots to accurately interpret and execute spoken language instructions is essential for effective human-robot collaboration. Traditional methods rely on speech recognition to transcribe speech into text, often discarding crucial prosodic cues needed for disambiguating intent. We propose a novel approach that directly leverages speech prosody to infer and resolve instruction intent. Predicted intents are integrated into large language models via in-context learning to disambiguate and …

LLM-Based Config Synthesis requires Disambiguation
Beyond hallucinations, another problem in program synthesis using LLMs is ambiguity in user intent. We illustrate the ambiguity problem in a networking context for LLM-based incremental configuration synthesis of route-maps and ACLs. These structures frequently overlap in header space, making the relative priority of actions impossible for the LLM to infer without user interaction. Measurements in a large cloud identify complex ACLs with 100's of overlaps, showing ambiguity is a real problem. W…

Interactive Text-to-SQL via Expected Information Gain for Disambiguation
Relational databases are foundational to numerous domains, including business intelligence, scientific research, and enterprise systems. However, accessing and analyzing structured data often requires proficiency in SQL, which is a skill that many end users lack. With the development of Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology, the Text-to-SQL systems attempt to bridge this gap by translating natural language questions into executable SQL queries via an automated algorithm. Yet, when operat…
