    摘要: A system and method for processing multi-modal device interactions in a natural language voice services environment may be provided. In particular, one or more multi-modal device interactions may be received in a natural language voice services environment that includes one or more electronic devices. The multi-modal device interactions may include a non-voice interaction with at least one of the electronic devices or an application associated therewith, and may further include a natural language utterance relating to the non-voice interaction. Context relating to the non-voice interaction and the natural language utterance may be extracted and combined to determine an intent of the multi-modal device interaction, and a request may then be routed to one or more of the electronic devices based on the determined intent of the multi-modal device interaction.

    摘要: The disclosure relates to methods, systems and other embodiments directed to determining an information domain match for a natural language (NL) input (e.g., a spoken utterance), and confirming whether the NL input is correctly matched to the information domain. For example, after receiving an NL input, a first information domain to which the NL input belongs and a feature value set may be determined based on a semantic pattern matching technique. Further, a second information domain to which the NL input belongs, and a corresponding confidence score related to the second information domain may be determined. The second information domain may be determined based on a first statistical classification technique. Based on the determined feature value set and the confidence score related to the second information domain, it may be confirmed whether the NL input correctly belongs to the first information domain, e.g., based on a second statistical classification technique.

    摘要: The invention relates to a system and method for integrating domain information into state transitions of a Finite State Transducer (“FST”) for natural language processing. A system may integrate semantic parsing and information retrieval from an information domain to generate an FST parser that represents the information domain. The FST parser may include a plurality of FST paths, at least one of which may be used to generate a meaning representation from a natural language input. As such, the system may perform domain-based semantic parsing of a natural language input, generating more robust meaning representations using domain information. The system may be applied to a wide range of natural language applications that use natural language input from a user such as, for example, natural language interfaces to computing systems, communication with robots in natural language, personalized digital assistants, question-answer query systems, and/or other natural language processing applications.

    摘要: A system and method is provided for adjusting natural language conversations between a human user and a computer based on the human user's cognitive state and/or situational state, particularly when the user is operating a vehicle. The system may disengage in conversation with the user (e.g., the driver) or take other actions based on various situational and/or user states. For example, the system may disengage conversation when the system detects that the driving situation is complex (e.g., car merging onto a highway, turning right with multiple pedestrians trying to cross, etc.). The system may (in addition or instead) sense the user's cognitive load and disengage conversation based on the cognitive load. The system may alter its personality (e.g. by engaging in mentally non-taxing conversations such as telling jokes based on situational and/or user states.

    摘要: The invention relates to systems and methods of providing in-view and out-of-view request-related result regions for respective result categories. The system may facilitate result presentation by providing, in response to a user request, at least one region that is designated to initially be in-view and at least one region that is designated to initially be out-of-view where: (i) the initial in-view region comprises one or more results related to the user request and a first category; and (ii) the initial out-of-view region comprises one or more results related to the user request and the second category. A result related to a category may comprise a result related to a specific topic, a result of a specific type, a result from a specific source, or other result. A user request may comprise a query, a command, or other user request.
