    Abstract: A method and system for operating an intelligent automated assistant is described. The disclosure includes receiving a user request through a conversation interface of the intelligent automated assistant, the user request including at least a speech input received from a user; identifying one or more candidate domains relevant to the user request from a plurality of predefined domains, wherein each predefined domain presents a respective area of service offered by the intelligent automated assistant, and wherein the identifying is based on respective degrees of match between words derived from the user request and words representing vocabulary and entities associated with each predefined domain; and providing feedback to the user through the conversation interface of the intelligent automated assistant, wherein the feedback presents a paraphrase of the user request and elicits additional input from the user to specify one or more parameters associated with a particular candidate domain.

    Abstract: Candidate interpretations resulting from application of speech recognition algorithms to spoken input are presented in a consolidated manner that reduces redundancy. A list of candidate interpretations is generated, and each candidate interpretation is subdivided into time-based portions, forming a grid. Those time based portions that duplicate portions from other candidate interpretations are removed from the grid. A user interface is provided that presents the user with an opportunity to select among the candidate interpretations; the user interface is configured to present these alternatives without duplicate elements. - 72 - Device Microphone 107 Audio Processor Other input Speech 101 device(s) recognition User processor 1109 Screen 109 Text editing UI |105 Processor Memory Local storage
