PEC-Home: Interpretation of Progressively Elliptical Commands in Smart Homes
Quick Answer
PEC-Home introduces a dataset for interpreting progressively elliptical commands in smart homes, addressing referential and intention ambiguities.
Quick Take
Experiments with like GPT-4o reveal that current home assistants struggle with elliptical commands, achieving less than optimal execution accuracy compared to complete commands.
Key Points
- PEC-Home is the first dataset for progressively elliptical commands in smart homes.
- Elliptical commands lead to referential ambiguity among multiple users.
- User preferences cause intention ambiguity, complicating command interpretation.
- Experiments show LLMs like GPT-4o struggle with elliptical command execution.
- Execution accuracy remains below that of complete commands, even with dialogue history.

Recent advancements in (LLMs) have empowered home assistants with natural language interaction capabilities. However, current assistants overlook the progressive omission that occurs in human dialogue as shared context accumulates, leading to more elliptical expressions for efficient communication. Thus, current assistants still struggle to interpret such elliptical expressions accurately, which limits their effectiveness in real-world applications. In practical smart home
