Abstract:
Techniques for performing command processing are described. A system receives, from a device, input data corresponding to a command. The system determines NLU processing results associated with multiple applications. The system also determines NLU confidences for the NLU processing results for each application. The system sends NLU processing results to a portion of the multiple applications, and receives output data or instructions from the portion of the applications. The system ranks the portion of the applications based at least in part on the NLU processing results associated with the portion of the applications as well as the output data or instructions provided by the portion of the applications. The system may also rank the portion of the applications using other data. The system causes content corresponding to output data or instructions provided by the highest ranked application to be output to a user.
