CleverNAO: The intelligent conversational humanoid robot

摘要

The objective of this work was the creation of a robotic system that any person could talk to in the English language, in particular, pairing an artificial intelligence algorithm that processes natural language with a physical robot that could synthesize speech. The result, called CleverNAO, is a successful combination of a chatbot application named Cleverbot with the NAO robot doing the speech synthesis. An attempt to include speech recognition was also made, with mixed success.
