INTRODUCTION

 What is Virtual Personal Assistant?

 Concept of an artificial personal assistant.

 Voice-controlled Personal Digital Assistants.

 The combination of :

• Automatic Speech Recognition.

• Artificial Intelligence.

• Natural Language Processing.

• Inter Process Communication.


HISTORY

 The first PDA was released in 1984 by Psion, the Organizer

 Early PDA’s was devices having full keyboard and touch screen, Which was also

known as PALMs

 Which was also known as PALMs

 The concept of virtual assistant was first developed by Joseph Weizenbaum of MIT

in the late 60s.

 The first chatterbot was “ELIZA”.

 “JULIA” is an example of the second generation chatterbot.

 “ALICE” is example of third generation chatterbot.


Basic Concepts Used

The working of Virtual Assistant uses following principles:


 Natural Language Processing.
• To Understand user’s speech input.
 Automatic Speech Recognition.
• To understand command according to user’s input.
 Artificial Intelligence.
• To learn things from user and to store all information bout behavior
and relations of user
 Inter Process Communication.
• To get important information from other software applications.
Working – Three Layers

1. Speech to text:
 A Piece of software used that converts audio to text.
It doesn’t understand just anything you might say.
2. Text Analyzing:
 Converted text is just letters for computer.
 A piece of software converts text to something that is understandable
for computer.
 Computer understands the command, so Virtual Assistant like siri
convert this text to computer command. 
 VPAs maps the words to functions and parameters to create a command
that computer can understand. Example of Reminder.
Working – Three Layers

3. Interpret commands:
 In this layer, that mapped computer command, go to server through
internet.
 Simultaneously, your speech evaluated locally.
 A local recogniser communicate with server to judge whether
command will be best handle locally or not.

Example:
Play Music, Restaurant reservation, Movie Rating

Features

• Speaks Naturally.
• Communicate with surroundings and other objects.
• Geofencing and Event based services.
• Grows with you.
• Get smarter every day.
• Will entertain you. 
Features

Some of the features of Virtual Assistant, you may ask him in


day by day uses are shown below:
• Schedule meetings & Appointments
• Get Direction
• Send Messages
• Set Reminders
• Ask Questions
• Play Music & Videos
• Wake me up at 6.30AM 13
• Make Phone Calls
Advantages

• These applications make small and smart hand-held devices to combine


multiple features.
• They allow you to export and import data.
• Store various information.
• Make to do lists.
• Recognizes voice commands.
• Controls various applications of device.
• Provides services regarding your location.
• Helps to plan your whole day.
• Reminds you important things on accurate situations or location.
(Geofencing)
Disdvantages

 Listening problem.
• VPA get problem to process wrong pronounced words and
miscellaneous words.
 Silent mode support.
• VPA gives response in voice output thus it doesn't work
properly in silent mode.
 Navigation languages.
• Most of VPAS can understand only English language.
 Internet access.
• VPA needs internet connection to give desired output.
VPAs in Future

 Next step will be to strip back the physical hardware as far as


possible
 With the intelligence of the VA existing in the cloud, getting pulled
in, and pushing its way into our lives on multiple devices on our
bodies and in our offices, homes, and vehicles
 Your VA will be continually prompting you with suggestions and
taking instructions, and will know more about you than perhaps you
do yourself.
 We can expect this device to be implanted and permanent.
Conclusion

Virtual Personal Assistants are very effective way to organize your


schedule. Now there are many Smart Personal Digital Assistant applications
available in market for various device platforms.
These new Software Applications are performing really well than PDA
devices as they provided with all resources of your smartphone.
VPAS are also reliable than Human Personal Assistant because, VPAS are
more portable and you can use them anytime. They also have lot of information
than any assistant as they are connected with internet.
Thank You!
