摘要： Systems and methods for processing results from plural speech services are described. A method includes receiving speech service results from plural speech services and service specifications corresponding to the speech service results. The results are at least one data structure representing information according to functionality of the speech services. The service specifications describe the data structure and its interpretation for each speech service. The speech service results are encoded into a unified conceptual knowledge representation of the results based on the service specification. The unified conceptual knowledge representation is provided to an application module. A method includes assessing speech service results received asynchronously from plural speech services to determine, based on a reliability measure, whether there is a reliable result among the speech service results received. If there is a reliable result, it is provided to an application module; otherwise, the method continues to assess the speech service results received.
