Abstract

Many navigation applications take natural language speech as input, which avoids typing in words with their hands and decreases the occurrence of traffic accidents. We propose the SpearkNav navigation system that enables users to describe intended routes via speech and supports clue-based route retrieval. SpeakNav includes a route description language understanding model for determining POIs and distances along expected routes, and it includes an efficient algorithm to compute desired routes. In addition, SpeakNav supports basic POI and location search and location-based route navigation. We demonstrate how SpeakNav accurately recognizes users' intentions and recommends appropriate routes in real application scenarios.
