3. Claims 1-19 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over Ma et al (US 20210210089 A1 hereinafter, Ma ‘089) in view of Ray et al. (US 20200410989 A1 hereinafter, Ray ‘989).
Regarding claim 1; Ma ‘089 discloses a voice control method, applied to a terminal device (Fig. 7, Terminal 700),
the method comprising: acquiring function information of an application on the terminal device (Fig. 5, Steps 501-502 i.e. In Operation 501, voice information is received from a terminal. In Operation 502, a target application program required to be started in the voice information is determined based on the voice information. Paragraphs 0085-0086)
wherein the function information comprises a calling mode and an application description typical statement corresponding to a preset function of the application, and the application description typical statement is a sentence describing the preset function (i.e. The terminal or the server, when determining whether the voice information is voice information configured to instruct the target application program to be started or not, may make a judgment through a Natural Language Processing (NLP) algorithm, namely recognizing a character string in the voice information. The terminal may then extract target information in the character string, and perform a matching processing on the target information through a matching algorithm to determine an intent of the voice information. Further, the terminal can perform matching processing on a keyword about the name of the application program according to the intent to determine whether the voice information is voice information configured to instruct the target application program to be started or not. Paragraph 0035);
and calling the application according to the calling mode to implement the preset function, in response to an acquired voice control instruction matching the application description typical statement (i.e. The terminal can perform matching processing on a keyword about the name of the application program according to the intent to determine whether the voice information is voice information configured to instruct the target application program to be started or not. Paragraph 0035).
Examiner reasonably believes that Ma ‘089 teaches each and every limitation as expressed above except for specifically teaching a typical statement. Ma ‘089 teaches character string as opposed to a typical statement. For example, Ma ‘089 at Paragraph 0035 recognizing a character string in the voice information wherein the terminal may extract target information in the character string. One of ordinary skill in the art would understand that a typical statement is synonymous with a character string. However, Examiner cites Ray ‘989 to cure any deficiencies of Ma ‘089.
Ray ‘989 discloses a typical statement (i.e. A hybrid NLU model that receives a query and creates delexicalized candidates from the query by partially delexicalizing the query, such as by matching words or phrases in the query with words or phrases in a slot vocabulary knowledge base and replacing the matched words or phrases in the query with special tokens associated with the words or phrases in the slot vocabulary knowledge base. Paragraph 0037)
Ma ‘089 and Ray ‘989 are combinable because they are from same field of endeavor of speech systems (Ray ‘989 at “Technical Field”).
Before the effective filing date, it would have been obvious to a person of ordinary skill in the art to modify the speech system as taught by Ma ‘089 by adding a voice input as taught by Ray ‘989.

Paragraphs 0038 & 0059);
and calling the application according to the calling mode to implement the preset function comprises: transferring the slot value in the voice control instruction to the application according to the slot value description, such that the application implements the preset function according to the slot value in the voice control instruction (Fig. 6, Steps 618-620 i.e. At block 618, the processor post-processes the inferred or extracted slots from the candidate with the highest confidence score to recover the slots for the original query 602 by lexicalization, such as by replacing the special tokens in the candidate with the highest score with the original words or phrases from the query 602.

Multiple candidates can be created, where some candidates are the query with one or more words or phrases replaced with special tokens and other candidates are the original query. Paragraph 0037)
and parsing the meta-data to obtain the function information of the application (i.e. The candidates are parsed by a trained hybrid NLU model, which provides parse results including determined slot tags and/or intent and an entropy score for each word or phrase in the query. The entropy scores can be used to determine an overall confidence score for a specific candidate. After all candidates are parsed, the candidate with the highest overall confidence score can be used to provide the slot tags for the query. Paragraph 0037)
