    Abstract: Aspects include methods, systems, and computer-program products providing virtual assistant domain functionality. A natural language query including one or more words is received. A collection of natural language modules is accessed. The collection natural language modules are configured to process sets of natural language queries. A natural language module, from the collection of natural language modules, is identified to interpret the natural language query. An interpretation of the natural language query is computed using the identified natural language module. A response to the natural language query is returned using the computed interpretation.

    Abstract: A method for processing a natural language query. The method includes receiving a text query, the query referring to a plurality of objects, attributes, qualifiers and other arguments and parsing the query to produce an argument tree representing the substance and structure of the query. The method also includes the capability to define qualifiers as being possibly projectable onto other arguments and indicate their direction of projectability and the capability to denote nodes of the argument tree as foldable, as splittable, or as containing sequences of qualifier arguments. The method additionally includes defining validity rules for a domain of knowledge, used to determine whether a list of arguments form a valid granular query component and processing of the argument tree, in view of the above in order to derive a corresponding plurality of granular query components that collectively request the plurality of pieces of information representing the intent of the query.

    Abstract: An audio recognition system provides for delivery of promotional content to its user. A user interface device, locally or with the assistance of a network-connected server, performs recognition of audio in response to queries. Recognition can be through a method such as processing features extracted from the audio. Audio can comprise recorded music, singing or humming, instrumental music, vocal music, spoken voice, or other recognizable types of audio. Campaign managers provide promotional content for delivery in response to audio recognized in queries.

    Abstract: A platform provides for developers of applications, such as devices, with natural language interfaces to configure the availability of vertical domain modules in applications. Modules can include grammars for parsing natural language expressions and interfaces to data sources. Third party developers can create modules with pricing models for their usage or access to their data. Device developers can browse or search available modules and test their performance for specific queries. The platform provides for devices users to access the chosen modules as configured by device developers and for charging and payment between users, application developers, and module developers.

    Abstract: In one implementation, a method is described of retrying matching of an audio query against audio references. The method includes receiving a follow-up query that requests a retry at matching a previously submitted audio query. In some implementations, this follow-up query is received without any recognition hint that suggests how to retry matching. The follow-up query includes the audio query or a reference to the audio query to be used in the retry. The method further includes retrying matching the audio query using retry matching resources that include an expanded group of audio references, identifying at least one match and transmitting a report of the match. Optionally, the method includes storing data that correlates the follow-up query, the audio query or the reference to the audio query, and the match after retrying.
