    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for selecting an input mode are described. In one aspect, a method includes receiving request data specifying a request to launch a virtual assistant application from a lock screen of a mobile device. In response to receiving the request data, input signals are obtained. A selection of an input mode for the virtual assistant application is made, from candidate input modes, based on the input signals. Each candidate input mode is of an input type different from each other input type of each other candidate input mode. The input types include an image type and an audio type. The input mode of the image type receives pixel data for input to the virtual assistant application. The input mode of the audio type receives audio input for the virtual assistant application. The virtual assistant application presents content selected based on input signals received using the selected input mode.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for controlling smart devices are described. In one aspect a method includes capturing, by a camera on a user device, a plurality of successive images for display in an application environment of an application executing on the user device, performing an object recognition process on the images, the object recognition process including determining that a plurality of images, each depicting a particular object, are required to perform object recognition on the particular object, and in response to the determination, generating a user interface element that indicates a camera operation to be performed, the camera option capturing two or more images, determining that a user, in response to the user interface element, has caused the indicated camera operation to be performed to capture the two or more images, and in response, determining whether a particular object is positively identified from the plurality of images.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method is described. The method includes a computing system receiving an item of digital content from a user device. The computing system generates one or more labels that indicate attributes of the item of digital content. The computing system also generates one or more conversational replies to the item of digital content based on the one or more labels that indicate attributes of the item of digital content. The method also includes the computing system selecting a conversational reply from among the one or more conversational replies and providing the conversational reply for output to the user device.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for recognizing objects and providing content related to the recognized objects are described. In one aspect, a method includes detecting presence of one or more objects depicted in a viewfinder of a camera of the mobile device. In response to detecting the presence of the one or more objects, image data representing the one or more objects is sent to a content distribution system that selects content related to objects depicted in images. A location of each of the one or more objects in the viewfinder of the camera is tracked while waiting to receive content from the content distribution system. Content related to the one or more objects is received from the content distribution system. A current location of each object in the viewfinder is determined and the content related to the object is presented within the viewfinder at the current location of the object.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for contextually disambiguating queries are disclosed. In an aspect, a method includes receiving an image being presented on a display of a computing device and a transcription of an utterance spoken by a user of the computing device, identifying a particular sub-image that is included in the image, and based on performing image recognition on the particular sub-image, determining one or more first labels that indicate a context of the particular sub-image. The method also includes, based on performing text recognition on a portion of the image other than the particular sub-image, determining one or more second labels that indicate the context of the particular sub-image, based on the transcription, the first labels, and the second labels, generating a search query, and providing, for output, the search query.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for providing contextual information to a user. In one aspect, a method includes receiving, from a user device, a query-independent request for contextual information relevant to an active resource displayed in an application environment on the user device, determining content described by the active resource in response to the query independent request, and identifying, in response to the query-independent request, multiple resources that are relevant to the content described by the active resource. Additional actions include, for each resource of the multiple resources, determining a corresponding measure of user engagement that reflects engagement of the resource by one or more users, selecting one or more of the multiple resources based on the measures of user engagement for the multiple resources, and providing, to the user device, a user interface element for display with the active resource.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for extracting data from blockchain transactions can include obtaining blockchain data, processing the blockchain data to determine token data, segmenting the token data from the blockchain data, and storing the segmented token data. The systems and methods can be utilized to extract descriptive data (e.g., non-fungible token titles, non-fungible token descriptions, and/or non-fungible token labels), content data (e.g., a preview of a digital resource associated with the non-fungible token), and/or transaction data (e.g., data descriptive of the transaction history of the non-fungible token). The extracted data can be indexed and can then be provided in a search results page based on a search query.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for non-fungible token indexing can include obtaining and identifying token data associated with a plurality of non-fungible tokens. In generating an index database, the systems and methods may index a token multiple times and/or may index tokens with same or similar payloads. The systems and methods can identify the duplicate token indexing and can adjust the index database based on the identification of duplicate token index data. The adjustment can affect the determination of which search results to surface in response to a search query.
