Abstract:
In one embodiment, a system includes an automatic speech recognition (ASR) module, a natural-language understanding (NLU) module, a dialog manager, one or more agents, an arbitrator, a delivery system, one or more processors, and a non-transitory memory coupled to the processors comprising instructions executable by the processors, the processors operable when executing the instructions to receive a user input, process the user input using the ASR module, the NLU module, the dialog manager, one or more of the agents, the arbitrator, and the delivery system, and provide a response to the user input.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, from a client system associated with a user, a user request comprising a reference to a target object, accessing visual data from the client system, wherein the visual data comprises images portraying the target object and one or more additional objects, and wherein attribute information of the target object is recorded in a multimodal dialog state, resolving the reference to the target object based on the attribute information recorded in the multimodal dialog state, determining relational information between the target object and one or more of the additional objects portrayed in the visual data, and sending, to the client system, instructions for presenting a response to the user request, wherein the response comprises the attribute information and the determined relational information.
Abstract:
Physical social actions are conveniently detected, characterized, and provided to a social networking system. This improves the user experience of the social networking system by more thoroughly recording the social actions of users occurring outside a social graph. This has the effect of extending an open social graph, which typically refers to social actions taken outside the social networking system but within a computer network, to physical social actions. By providing characterized physical social actions to the social networking system, the open social graph is extended to include physical social actions.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes accessing visual data from a client system associated with a user, wherein the visual data comprises images portraying one or more objects, receiving, from the client system, a user request, wherein the user request comprises a coreference to a target object, resolving the coreference to the target object from among the one or more objects, resolving the target object to a specific entity, and sending, to the client system, instructions for providing a response to the user request, wherein the response comprises attribute information about the specific entity.
