  • Patent number: 11942082
    Abstract: Techniques described herein relate to facilitating end-to-end multilingual communications with automated assistants. In various implementations, speech recognition output may be generated based on voice input in a first language. A first language intent may be identified based on the speech recognition output and fulfilled in order to generate a first natural language output candidate in the first language. At least part of the speech recognition output may be translated to a second language to generate an at least partial translation, which may then be used to identify a second language intent that is fulfilled to generate a second natural language output candidate in the second language. Scores may be determined for the first and second natural language output candidates, and based on the scores, a natural language output may be selected for presentation.

  • Patent number: 11403288
    Abstract: Implementations include systems and methods for querying a data graph. An example method includes receiving a machine learning module trained to produce a model with multiple features for a query, each feature representing a path in a data graph. The method also includes receiving a search query that includes a first search term, mapping the search query to the query, and mapping the first search term to a first entity in the data graph. The method may also include identifying a second entity in the data graph using the first entity and at least one of the multiple weighted features, and providing information relating to the second entity in a response to the search query. Some implementations may also include training the machine learning module by, for example, generating positive and negative training examples from an answer to a query.

  • Patent number: 10635725
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for providing app store search results. An example method includes responsive to a first search query directed to an app store: revising the first search query to produce a second search query different from the first search query; obtaining, from an Internet search engine, second search results responsive to the second search query; analyzing the second search results to identify apps available on the app store that are relevant to the second search query; obtaining, from the app store, first search results responsive to the first search query that identify apps available in the app store; and modifying the first search results based on analyzing the second search results.

  • Patent number: 9990610
    Abstract: A method for annotating a message executes at a computing device having one or more processors and memory. The memory stores one or more programs configured for execution by the one or more processors. A plurality of messages for a user is analyzed to determine whether a task reminder is derivable for any of the messages. In this way, task reminders are derived for at least a subset of the messages. A user interface for an electronic messaging application is provided. The interface includes a list of objects, one or more of which represents a collapsed state of a message in the message subset and comprises a summary, task reminder, and a dismissal affordance. Responsive dismissal affordance selection, the task reminder and the dismissal affordances are removed from the object.
