NATURAL ASSISTANT INTERACTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18212654 Titled 'NATURAL ASSISTANT INTERACTION'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes systems and processes for operating a virtual assistant that can provide natural interaction. The method involves receiving an audio stream containing spoken words, determining if the audio stream contains a specific trigger word, and generating text representations of the spoken words. The virtual assistant then determines if any of the generated text representations should be ignored. If so, it generates candidate intents based on the remaining text representations.
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and processes for operating a virtual assistant to provide natural assistant interaction are provided. In accordance with one or more examples, a method includes, at an electronic device with one or more processors and memory: receiving a first audio stream including one or more utterances; determining whether the first audio stream includes a lexical trigger; generating one or more candidate text representations of the one or more utterances; determining whether at least one candidate text representation of the one or more candidate text representations is to be disregarded by the virtual assistant. If at least one candidate text representation is to be disregarded, one or more candidate intents are generated based on candidate text representations of the one or more candidate text representations other than the to be disregarded at least one candidate text representation.
