Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer readable media are described related to automated assistants that proactively incorporate, into human-to-computer dialog sessions, unsolicited content of potential interest to a user. In various implementations, based on content of an existing human-to-computer dialog session between a user and an automated assistant, an entity mentioned by the user or automated assistant may be identified. Fact(s)s related to the entity or to another entity that is related to the entity may be identified based on entity data contained in database(s). For each of the fact(s), a corresponding measure of potential interest to the user may be determined. Unsolicited natural language content may then be generated that includes one or more of the facts selected based on the corresponding measure(s) of potential interest. The automated assistant may then incorporate the unsolicited content into the existing human-to-computer dialog session or a subsequent human-to-computer dialog session.

Abstract: Techniques described herein may serve to increase the language coverage of an automated assistant system, i.e. they may serve to increase the number of queries in one or more non-native languages for which the automated assistant is able to deliver reasonable responses. For example, techniques are described herein for training and utilizing a machine translation model to map a plurality of semantically-related natural language inputs in one language to one or more canonical translations in another language. In various implementations, the canonical translations may be selected and/or optimized for determining an intent of the speaker by the automated assistant, so that one or more responsive actions can be performed based on the speaker's intent. Put another way, the canonical translations may be specifically formatted for indicating the intent of the speaker to the automated assistant.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating subqueries from a query. In one aspect, a method includes obtaining a query, generating a set of two subqueries from the query, where the set includes a first subquery and a second subquery, determining a quality score for the set of two subqueries, determining whether the quality score for the set of two subqueries satisfies a quality threshold, and in response to determining that the quality score for the set of two subqueries satisfies the quality threshold, providing a first response to the first subquery that is responsive to a first operation that receives the first subquery as input and providing a second response to the second subquery that is responsive to a second operation that receives the second subquery as input.

Abstract: Generating expanded responses that guide continuance of a human-to computer dialog that is facilitated by a client device and that is between at least one user and an automated assistant. The expanded responses are generated by the automated assistant in response to user interface input provided by the user via the client device, and are caused to be rendered to the user via the client device, as a response, by the automated assistant, to the user interface input of the user. An expanded response is generated based on at least one entity of interest determined based on the user interface input, and is generated to incorporate content related to one or more additional entities that are related to the entity of interest, but that are not explicitly referenced by the user interface input.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for automated assistants that proactively provide content to participant(s) of multi-participant message exchange threads (e.g., group chats, audio and/or video calls in which oral messages are transcribed for analysis, etc.) based on signals such as individual participant profiles associated with participant(s). In various implementations, automated assistant(s) that may not be explicitly invoked may analyze content of a message exchange thread involving multiple human participants and/or document(s) associated with the message exchange thread. Based on the analyzing, the automated assistant(s) may identify topic(s) pertinent to the message exchange thread. Based on individual participant profiles associated with the participants, the automated assistant(s) may identify shared interest(s) of the participants. The automated assistant(s) may then select new content based both on the pertinent topic(s) and the shared interest(s) of the participants and proactively provide the new content to one or more of the participants.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer readable media are described related to automated assistants that proactively incorporate, into human-to-computer dialog sessions, unsolicited content of potential interest to a user. In various implementations, in an existing human-to-computer dialog session between a user and an automated assistant, it may be determined that the automated assistant has responded to all natural language input received from the user. Based on characteristic(s) of the user, information of potential interest to the user or action(s) of potential interest to the user may be identified. Unsolicited content indicative of the information of potential interest to the user or the action(s) may be generated and incorporated by the automated assistant into the existing human-to-computer dialog session. In various implementations, the incorporating may be performed in response to the determining that the automated assistant has responded to all natural language input received from the user during the human-to-computer dialog session.

Abstract: The systems and methods of the present disclosure generally relate to a data processing system that can identify and surface alternative requests when presented with ambiguous, unclear, or other requests to which a data processing system may not be able to respond. The data processing system can improve the efficiency of network transmissions to reduce network bandwidth usage and processor utilization by selecting alternative requests that are responsive to the intent of the original request.
