Recognizer GET-RESULT

The GET-RESULT method, sent from the client to the server while the recognizer is in the recognized state, retrieves the result of a completed recognition in NLSML format. It lets a client ask for the result again under different constraints—for example a different confidence threshold—without re-running recognition: the media server re-computes the result from the retained recognition data according to the constraints supplied in the GET-RESULT request.

This is useful when the client wants more detail than the original result returned, or wants to re-evaluate the same utterance against a relaxed or tightened threshold.


MRCPv1 example

The client re-requests the result with a confidence threshold of 90; the server returns the NLSML result:

C->S:   GET-RESULT 543257 MRCP/1.0
        Confidence-Threshold:90

S->C:   MRCP/1.0 543257 200 COMPLETE
        Content-Type:application/x-nlsml
        Content-Length:276

        <?xml version="1.0"?>
        <result grammar="session:request1@form-level.store">
            <interpretation>
                <instance name="Person">
                    <Person>
                        <Name>Andre Roy</Name>
                    </Person>
                </instance>
                <input>may I speak to Andre Roy</input>
            </interpretation>
        </result>

MRCPv2 example

The same request in MRCPv2, with the Channel-Identifier header and the 0.0–1.0 confidence range:

C->S:   MRCP/2.0 ... GET-RESULT 543257
               Channel-Identifier:32AECB23433801@speechrecog
               Confidence-Threshold:0.9


S->C: MRCP/2.0 ... 543257 200 COMPLETE
             Channel-Identifier:32AECB23433801@speechrecog
             Content-Type:application/nlsml+xml
             Content-Length:...


            <?xml version="1.0"?>
            <result grammar="session:request1@form-level.store">
                    <interpretation>
                           <instance name="Person">
                                   <ex:Person>
                                             <ex:Name>Andre Roy</ex:Name>
                                   </ex:Person>
                          </instance>
                          <input>may I speak to Andre Roy</input>
           </interpretation>
</result>
