    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for detecting a mission changes in a conversation. A user utterance from a user device is received. The user utterance is part of a conversation with an intelligent assistant. The conversation includes preceding user utterances in pursuit of a first mission. It is determined that the user utterance indicates a mission change from the first mission to a second mission based on an application of a machine-learned model to the user utterance and the preceding user utterances. The machine-learned model has been trained repeatedly with past utterances of other users over a time period, the determining based on a certainty of the indication satisfying a certainty threshold. Responsive to the determining that the user utterance indicates the mission change from the first mission to a second mission, a reply to the user utterance is generated to further the second mission rather than the first mission.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for query segmentation are disclosed. In one aspects, a method includes receiving, by one or more hardware processors, a query string, the query string comprising a plurality of tokens, identifying, by the one or more hardware processors, a first token and a second token from the plurality of tokens, determining, by the one or more hardware processors, a first vector and a second vector associated with the first token and the second token respectively, determining, by the one or more hardware processors, whether to include the first and second tokens in a single query segment based on the first and second vectors, generating, by the one or more hardware processors, a plurality of query segments based on the determination; and processing, by the one or more hardware processors, the query based on the plurality of query segments.

    Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for a Listing Engine that translates a first listing from a first language to a second language. The first listing includes an image(s) of a first item. The Listing Engine provides as input to an encoded neural network model a portion(s) of a translated first listing and a portions(s) of a second listing in the second language. The second listing includes an image(s) of a second item. The Listing Engine receives from the encoded neural network model a first feature vector for the translated first listing and a second feature vector for the second listing. The first and the second feature vectors both include at least one type of image signature feature and at least one type of listing text-based feature. Based on a similarity score of the first and second feature vectors at least meeting a similarity score threshold, the Listing Engine generates a pairing of the first listing in the first language with the second listing in the second language for inclusion in training data of a machine translation system.

    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for receiving a plurality of comments at a particular phase of a transaction with a member of a networked system, classifying one or more of the plurality of comments into one of a set of predetermined sentiment classifications, applying a trained machine learning system to select a category from a set of predefined categories for each of the one or more comments, applying a natural language processing module to generate a sub-category for each of the one or more comments, associating the generated sub-categories with their respective categories for the one or more comments, and generating a display of the determined categories for the particular transaction with the generated sub-categories, each generated sub-category being graphically connected to their respective categories.
