IntentRecognizer Class

Definition

Recognizes intents using a language understanding (LUIS) model or phrase.

public sealed class IntentRecognizer : Microsoft.CognitiveServices.Speech.Recognizer
type IntentRecognizer = class
    inherit Recognizer
Public NotInheritable Class IntentRecognizer
Inherits Recognizer
Inheritance
IntentRecognizer

Remarks

Intents indicate what the user wishes to initiate or do based on options you define. Successful intent recognition returns both recognized text and recognized intent.

Constructors

IntentRecognizer(EmbeddedSpeechConfig)

Creates a new instance of IntentRecognizer using EmbeddedSpeechConfig, configured to receive speech from the default microphone. Added in 1.20.0

IntentRecognizer(EmbeddedSpeechConfig, AudioConfig)

Creates a new instance of IntentRecognizer using EmbeddedSpeechConfig, configured to receive speech from an audio source specified in an AudioConfig object. Added in 1.20.0

IntentRecognizer(SpeechConfig)

Creates a new instance of IntentRecognizer.

IntentRecognizer(SpeechConfig, AudioConfig)

Creates a new instance of IntentRecognizer.

Fields

disposed

disposed is a flag used to indicate if object is disposed.

(Inherited from Recognizer)
gch

GC handle for callbacks for context.

(Inherited from Recognizer)
isDisposing

Indicates whether the object is currently being disposed.

(Inherited from Recognizer)
pointerHandle

Internal for logging.

(Inherited from Recognizer)
recognizerLock

recognizerLock is used to synchronize access to objects member variables from multiple threads

(Inherited from Recognizer)

Properties

AuthorizationToken

Gets or sets authorization token used to communicate with the service.

Note: The caller needs to ensure that the authorization token is valid. Before the authorization token expires, the caller needs to refresh it by calling this setter with a new valid token. Otherwise, the recognizer will encounter errors during recognition.

Properties

Gets the collection of properties and their values defined for this IntentRecognizer.

SpeechRecognitionLanguage

Gets the language name that is used for recognition.

Methods

AddAllIntents(LanguageUnderstandingModel)

Adds all intents from the specified Language Understanding Model. For PatternMatchingModel and ConversationalLanguageUnderstandingModel types, this will clear any existing models before enabling it.

AddAllIntents(LanguageUnderstandingModel, String)

Adds a single intent by name from the specified Language Understanding Model. For PatternMatchingModel and ConversationalLanguageUnderstandingModel types, this will clear any existing models before enabling it. For these types, the intentName is ignored.

AddIntent(LanguageUnderstandingModel, String)

Adds a single intent by name from the specified Language Understanding Model. For PatternMatchingModel and ConversationalLanguageUnderstandingModel types, this will clear any existing models before enabling it. For these types, the intentName is ignored.

AddIntent(LanguageUnderstandingModel, String, String)

Adds a single intent by name from the specified Language Understanding Model. For PatternMatchingModel and ConversationalLanguageUnderstandingModel types, this will clear any existing models before enabling it. For these types, the intentName and intentId are ignored.

AddIntent(String)

Adds a simple phrase that may be spoken by the user, indicating a specific user intent.

AddIntent(String, String)

Adds a simple phrase that may be spoken by the user, indicating a specific user intent.

ApplyLanguageModels(LanguageUnderstandingModelCollection)

Takes a collection of language understanding models, makes a copy of them, and applies them to the recognizer. This application takes effect at different times depending on the LanguageUnderstandingModel type. PatternMatchingModels will become active immediately whereas LanguageUnderstandingModels utilizing the LUIS service will become active immediately unless the recognizer is in the middle of intent recognition in which case it will take effect after the next Recognized event.

Dispose()

Dispose of associated resources.

(Inherited from Recognizer)
Dispose(Boolean)

This method performs cleanup of resources. The Boolean parameter disposing indicates whether the method is called from Dispose() (if disposing is true) or from the finalizer (if disposing is false). Derived classes should override this method to dispose resource if needed.

(Inherited from Recognizer)
Finalize()
RecognizeOnceAsync()

Starts speech recognition with intent recognition as an asynchronous operation.

RecognizeOnceAsync(String)

Performs intent recognition, and generates a result from the text passed in. This is useful for testing and other times when the speech input is not tied to the IntentRecognizer. Note: The Intent Service does not currently support this so it is only valid for offline pattern matching or exact matching intents.

StartContinuousRecognitionAsync()

Starts speech recognition on a continuous audio stream asynchronously, until StopContinuousRecognitionAsync() is called.

StartKeywordRecognitionAsync(KeywordRecognitionModel)

Configures the recognizer with the given keyword model. After calling this method, the recognizer is listening for the keyword to start the recognition. Call StopKeywordRecognitionAsync() to end the keyword initiated recognition. You must subscribe to events to receive recognition results.

StopContinuousRecognitionAsync()

Stops a running recognition operation as soon as possible and immediately requests a result based on the the input that has been processed so far. This works for all recognition operations, not just continuous ones, and facilitates the use of push-to-talk or "finish now" buttons for manual audio endpointing.

StopKeywordRecognitionAsync()

Ends the keyword initiated recognition.

Events

Canceled

The event Canceled signals that the intent recognition was canceled.

Recognized

The event Recognized signals that a final recognition result is received.

Recognizing

The event Recognizing signals that an intermediate recognition result is received.

SessionStarted

Defines event handler for session started event.

(Inherited from Recognizer)
SessionStopped

Defines event handler for session stopped event.

(Inherited from Recognizer)
SpeechEndDetected

Defines event handler for speech end detected event.

(Inherited from Recognizer)
SpeechStartDetected

Defines event handler for speech start detected event.
