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: Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can operate as an interface between a user and a separate application to search application content of the separate application. The automated assistant can interact with existing search filter features of another application and can also adapt in circumstances when certain filter parameters are not directly controllable at a search interface of the application. For instance, when a user requests that a search operation be performed using certain terms, those terms may refer to content filters that may not be available at a search interface of the application. However, the automated assistant can generate an assistant input based on those content filters in order to ensure that any resulting search results will be filtered accordingly. The assistant input can then be submitted into a search field of the application and a search operation can be executed.

Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can provide a selectable action intent suggestion when a user is accessing a third party application that is controllable via the automated assistant. The action intent can be initialized by the user without explicitly invoking the automated assistant using, for example, an invocation phrase (e.g., “Assistant . . . ”). Rather, the user can initialize performance of the corresponding action by identifying one or more action parameters. In some implementations, the selectable suggestion can indicate that a microphone is active for the user to provide a spoken utterance that identifies a parameter(s). When the action intent is initialized in response to the spoken utterance from the user, the automated assistant can control the third party application according to the action intent and any identified parameter(s).

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for delegation of request fulfillment, by an assistant, to other devices. A method includes: receiving, by a first device, a request from a first user; identifying, based on the request from the first user, (i) an action corresponding to the request and (ii) a first parameter corresponding to the action; determining that fulfillment of the action is to be delegated to a device other than the first device; in response: selecting, as the device other than the first device, a second device on which an application corresponding to the action is installed; identifying, by the first device, based on the first parameter and information associated with an account of the first user, a first disambiguated parameter corresponding to the action; and sending, to the second device, a command that specifies the action and the first disambiguated parameter, to cause the second device to fulfill the action.

Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can interact with applications that may not have been pre-configured for interfacing with the automated assistant. The automated assistant can identify content of an application interface of the application to determine synonymous terms that a user may speak when commanding the automated assistant to perform certain tasks. Speech processing operations employed by the automated assistant can be biased towards these synonymous terms when the user is accessing an application interface of the application. In some implementations, the synonymous terms can be identified in a responsive language of the automated assistant when the content of the application interface is being rendered in a different language. This can allow the automated assistant to operate as an interface between the user and certain applications that may not be rendering content in a native language of the user.

Abstract: Implementations are set forth herein for creating an order of execution for actions that were requested by a user, via a spoken utterance to an automated assistant. The order of execution for the requested actions can be based on how each requested action can, or is predicted to, affect other requested actions. In some implementations, an order of execution for a series of actions can be determined based on an output of a machine learning model, such as a model that has been trained according to supervised learning. A particular order of execution can be selected to mitigate waste of processing, memory, and network resources—at least relative to other possible orders of execution. Using interaction data that characterizes past performances of automated assistants, certain orders of execution can be adapted over time, thereby allowing the automated assistant to learn from past interactions with one or more users.
