Abstract: 1UUJ44Ullh An intelligent automated assistant system engages with the user in an integrated, conversational manner using natural language dialog, and invokes external services when appropriate to obtain information or perform various actions. The system can be implemented using any of a number of different platforms, such as the web, email, smartphone, and the like, or any combination thereof. In one embodiment, the system is based on sets of interrelated domains and tasks, and employs additional functionally powered by external services with which the system can interact.

Abstract: A virtual assistant uses context information to supplement natural language or ges tural input from a user. Context helps to clarify the user's intent and to reduce the num ber of candidate interpretations of the user's input, and reduces the need for the user to provide excessive clarification input. Context can include any available information that is usable by the assistant to supplement explicit user input to constrain an information processing problem and/or to personalize results. Context can be used to constrain solu tions during various phases of processing, including, for example, speech recognition, natural language processing, task flow processing, and dialog generation.

Abstract: A text string is obtained from a speech input received from a user. Information is derived from a communication event that occurred at the electronic device prior to receipt of the speech input. The text string is interpreted to derive candidate interpretations of user intent. A selection of a candidate may be made based on the information relating to the communication event.

Abstract: The electronic device with one or more processors and memory receives a first document including a plurality of links. The electronic device outputs a voice reading of at least a portion of the first document, and outputs audible information identifying a link of the plurality of links. In response to outputting the audible information identifying the link, the electronic device receives from the user a voice command regarding the link, and, in response to receiving from the user the voice command, outputs a voice reading of at least a portion of a second document associated with the link.

Abstract: A user request is received, the user request including at least a speech input received from a user. Two or more alternative interpretations of user intent are obtained. One or more commonalities and one or more differences are identified among the two or more alternative interpretations of user intent. A response is provided, the response presenting at least one of the identified differences and eliciting additional user input to choose among the two or more alternative interpretations of user intent based the difference.

Abstract: Ein virtueller Assistent verwendet Kontextinformation, um natürliche Sprache oder Gesteneingabe eines Benutzers zu ergänzen. Kontext hilft, die Absicht des Benutzers klarzustellen, und die Anzahl an Kandidateninterpretationen der Benutzereingabe zu reduzieren, und reduziert die Notwendigkeit für den Benutzer, übermäßige Klarstellungseingaben bereitzustellen. Kontext kann jegliche verfügbare Information beinhalten, die von dem Assistenten genutzt werden kann, um ausdrückliche Benutzereingabe zu ergänzen zum Beschränken eines Informationsverarbeitungsproblems und/oder zum Personalisieren von Ergebnissen. Kontext kann verwendet werden, um Lösungen während unterschiedlicher Phasen der Verarbeitung zu beschränken, einschließlich beispielsweise Spracherkennung, Verarbeitung natürlicher Sprache, Task-Fluss-Verarbeitung und Dialoggenerierung.
