Abstract: In this work, the evaluation of the LOGOS’ spoken dialogue system is presented. The system offers user-friendly access to information, entertainment devices and white good appliances. Short description of the LOGOS system’s architecture is given. The user interface of the system is based on remote control device, PC keyboard and spoken language.
