Target representation
Each sample has one target string. A target consists of an exact command token and, for timed movement commands, an optional positive millisecond operand appended directly to the token.
| Target | Meaning | Samples | Share of all samples |
|---|---|---|---|
<|cmd_lower_compression|> |
Lower the compression plate or paddle | 126,912 | 12.5% |
<|cmd_raise_compression|> |
Raise the compression plate or paddle | 103,116 | 10.2% |
<|cmd_lower_swivel|> |
Lower the swivel arm | 118,980 | 11.7% |
<|cmd_raise_swivel|> |
Raise the swivel arm | 126,912 | 12.5% |
<|cmd_stop|> |
Stop the current or named movement | 111,048 | 10.9% |
<|cmd_register_operator|> |
Register the current voice as the operator | 23,796 | 2.3% |
<|cmd_none|> |
No single supported target can be resolved | 404,532 | 39.8% |
The six command targets account for 610,764 samples (60.2%). <|cmd_none|> accounts for 404,532 samples (39.8%).
Command-target coverage
The command-target samples include terse commands, explicit and implicit movement durations, continuous actions, continuation and repetition language, global and direction-specific stopping, and corrections whose final intent is complete.
| Command-target group | Samples | Share within command-target samples | Semantic forms |
|---|---|---|---|
| Movement | 475,920 | 77.9% | 210,198 brief, default, repeated, or continued movements mapped to 700 ms; 190,368 movements with an explicit positive duration; 75,354 continuous movements with no operand |
<|cmd_stop|> |
111,048 | 18.2% | 27,762 generic or current-movement stops; 63,456 component-and-direction-specific stops; 19,830 global or multi-movement stops |
<|cmd_register_operator|> |
23,796 | 3.9% | 15,864 direct registrations; 7,932 corrections whose final complete intent is registration |
The 190,368 explicitly timed movement samples cover 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.2, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 10, and 30 seconds. Natural formulations include milliseconds, whole and fractional seconds, decimal phrasing, and longer upper-bound durations. Brief, default, repeated, or continued movements use a 700 ms operand when no numeric duration is spoken. Continuous movement targets omit the operand.
<|cmd_none|> semantic coverage
The 404,532 <|cmd_none|> samples are divided into 15 mutually exclusive primary semantic situations. The percentages below use all <|cmd_none|> samples as the denominator.
| Primary semantic situation | Samples | Share | Detailed coverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Negation | 51,558 | 12.7% | 23,796 prohibited movements; 23,796 requests not to stop; 3,966 requests not to register the voice |
| Multiple commands or alternatives | 27,762 | 6.9% | 15,864 paired supported movements; 3,966 movement alternatives; 3,966 registration-plus-movement combinations; 3,966 supported-plus-unsupported combinations |
| Conflict or reversal | 15,864 | 3.9% | Stop-then-reverse sequences |
| Invalid duration | 15,864 | 3.9% | 3,966 zero-duration movements; 3,966 numbers without a time unit; 3,966 distance operands; 3,966 alternative durations |
| Delayed or periodic scheduling | 7,932 | 2.0% | 3,966 delayed requests and 3,966 periodically repeated requests |
| Questions | 27,762 | 6.9% | 11,898 capability or maximum-range questions; 7,932 causal questions; 7,932 historical-time questions |
| Reported, quoted, or metalinguistic language | 27,762 | 6.9% | 15,864 reported commands and 11,898 quoted or phrase-repetition uses |
| Past statements | 23,796 | 5.9% | 15,864 past movement descriptions; 3,966 past registration statements; 3,966 past stop statements |
| Future or planned statements | 23,796 | 5.9% | 15,864 future movement descriptions; 3,966 future registration statements; 3,966 future stop statements |
| Conditional or hypothetical expressions | 19,830 | 4.9% | 15,864 hypothetical statements and 3,966 condition-triggered movement requests |
| Other declarative statements | 19,830 | 4.9% | 15,864 neutral context statements and 3,966 non-command statements containing a duration |
| Fragments | 47,592 | 11.8% | Three groups of 15,864: scalar or repetition fragments; standalone continuation or repetition cues; isolated component, direction, or duration slots |
| Ambiguous or underspecified references | 31,728 | 7.8% | 15,864 pronoun or deictic references; 15,864 named components without a complete direction or action |
| Unresolved self-corrections | 23,796 | 5.9% | Six final-state failure types with 3,966 samples each: pronoun-only intent, unsupported intent, negated intent, multiple intents, component-only fragment, or duration-only fragment |
| Off-domain command or alternate word sense | 39,660 | 9.8% | 19,830 unsupported equipment or room actions; 15,864 command keywords used with another meaning; 3,966 attempts to register a different person's voice |
This composition explicitly covers commands, non-commands, negation, questions, statements, quotations, conditional language, future expressions, fragments, ambiguity, multiple commands, conflicts, self-correction, invalid duration expressions, and delayed or periodic requests.
Self-correction coverage
Self-correction language appears in 91,218 samples. In 67,422 samples (73.9%), the final correction restates one complete affirmative target: 51,558 movement samples, 7,932 stop samples, and 7,932 registration samples. This group includes both single corrections and repeated corrections that abandon more than one earlier intent.
The remaining 23,796 samples (26.1%) end in a pronoun-only reference, unsupported direction, negated request, multiple requests, component-only phrase, or duration-only phrase and therefore use <|cmd_none|>. A duration correction produces a movement target only when the corrected duration is attached to a fully restated movement command.
Ambiguity, conflict, and duration boundaries
An utterance with competing actions uses <|cmd_none|> unless an explicit correction marker abandons the earlier action and the final action is complete. Coordinated movements, supported-plus-unsupported combinations, action alternatives, and stop-then-reverse sequences therefore remain within <|cmd_none|>. A single global stop remains a <|cmd_stop|> sample when it names more than one movement to stop.
Positive movement durations are represented as millisecond operands. Zero duration, a bare number without a time unit, a distance in place of time, or two alternative durations does not produce an operand. Delayed execution and periodic scheduling are treated as scheduling requests and use <|cmd_none|>.
Languages and textual style
English and German each contribute 507,648 samples. Both languages cover direct commands, non-commands, short colloquial forms, declarative and interrogative speech, quotations, corrections, and semantic boundary cases. Numerals in spoken text are written as words; numeric operands appear only in the target string.
