Design and Implementation of a HTMLtoVoiceXML Converter
Choi Hoon-Il, YoungGun Jang · 2001
It is possible to access web contents by mobile terminals and telephones due to the evolution of voice and VoiceXML technologies. Nevertheless, because these days most of all the web contents are constructed by HTML, it is impossible to access them by using the new technology. Therefore, to access the contents through voices requires the conversion of the web document from HTML to VoiceXML, but its manual conversion process should be involved additional time and expenditure. In this paper, we design and implement HTMLtoVoiceXML converter, suggest a system structure of it and propose a practical identification algorithm of meaningful fragmented group of contents to solve the problem. To test the performance and validity of the converter, we apply it to more than 400 web pages in Korean web sites, it works well except for web pages which involve invalid HTML codes.
