Speech is often masked by background sound that fluctuates over time. Fluctuations in masker intensity can reveal glimpses of speech support intelligibility, but older adults have frequently been shown to benefit less from than younger when listening sentences. Recent work, however, suggests may leverage as much, or more, naturalistic stories, potentially because the availability semantic context stories.

As the aging population issue worsens, people are experiencing increasing life pressures, and elderly unable to receive sufficient care, intensifying demand for home-based intelligent massage healthcare robots. Addressing challenges faced by users in expressing preferences specific areas like back through gestures or voice during use of robots, individuals imprecisely, which hinders effective communication desired target location robot, this paper proposes a new human-machine interaction mode The main innovations include: achieving precise control area representation virtual human body on screen; proposing virtual-to-real mapping algorithm based acupoints address consistency mapping; introducing multimodal intent understanding dynamic information entropy current limitations single low comprehension rates robot interactions. Experimental results demonstrate that proposed localization achieves good recognition effects. By combining natural with understanding, it not only accurately captures user intentions assists completing tasks but also reduces psychological cognitive loads, leading more desirable outcomes.
