Abstract:
The present disclosure describes a teleconferencing system that may use a virtual participant processor to translate language content of the teleconference into each participant's spoken language without additional user inputs. The virtual participant processor may connect to the teleconference as do the other participants. The virtual participant processor may intercept all text or audio data that was previously exchanged between the participants may now be intercepted by the virtual participant processor. Upon obtaining a partial or complete language recognition result or making a language preference determination, the virtual participant processor may call a translation engine appropriate for each of the participants. The virtual participant processor may send the resulting translation to a teleconference management processor. The teleconference management processor may deliver the respective translated text or audio data to the appropriate participant.
Abstract:
A method includes accessing command sentences stored in a data store, wherein each command sentence is a collection of n-grams and each command sentence includes at least one n-gram that is a non-terminal n-gram that maps to a non-terminal type, and wherein the command sentences include non-terminal n-grams that collectively map to a plurality of different non-terminal types; for each of the non-terminal types: identifying n-gram spans; determining clusters of the n-gram spans, each cluster including n-gram spans meeting a measure of similarity of n-grams spans that belong to the cluster; and for each cluster of n-gram spans, determining, from the n-gram spans belonging to the cluster, a new non-terminal type to which the terminal n-grams of the n-gram spans map.

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to evaluating different semantic interpretations of a search query. One example method includes obtaining a set of search results for a particular search query submitted to a search engine; obtaining a set of semantic interpretations for the particular search query; obtaining, for each semantic interpretation of the set, a canonical search query; generating a modified search query based at least in part on the particular search query and the canonical search query for the semantic interpretation; obtaining a set of search results for the modified search query for the semantic interpretation; and determining, for each semantic interpretation of the set, a degree of similarity between (i) the set of search results of the modified search query for the semantic interpretation, and (ii) the set of search results for the particular search query.
