| Abstract |
A system for the visualization of three-dimensional anatomical data, derived
from Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) or Computed Tomography (CT), enables the
physician to navigate through and interact with the patient's 3D scans in a virtual
environment. This paper presents the multimodal human-machine interaction focusing
the speech input. For the concerning task, a speech understanding front-end using
a special kind of semantic decoder was successfully adopted. Now, the navigation
as well as certain parameters and functions can be directly accessed by spoken
commands. Using the implemented interaction modalities, speed and efficiency of
the diagnosis could be considerably improved. |
