Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods discussed herein provide improved autonomous agent applications that are configured to generate automated answers to a question using summarized logical forms (SLFs). A myriad of techniques may be utilized to generate one or more summarized logical forms for an answer, where the summarized logical form(s) identifies the main entities/informative portions of the answer. Instead of indexing the whole of the answer as in conventional methods, an answer can be indexed using the summarized logical forms. A subsequent query may be converted to logical form to generate a query representation which can be compared to one or more SLFs of a set of answers. If an SLF of an answer matches the query representation, the answer may be provided in response to the question. By indexing the answer with its informative portions, the speed and accuracy of identifying the answer is improved.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining that artificial commands, in excess of a threshold value, are detected by multiple voice activated electronic devices is described herein. In some embodiments, numerous voice activated electronic devices may send audio data representing a phrase to a backend system at a substantially same time. Text data representing the phrase, and counts for instances of that text data, may be generated. If the number of counts exceeds a predefined threshold, the backend system may cause any remaining response generation functionality that particular command that is in excess of the predefined threshold to be stopped, and those devices returned to a sleep state. In some embodiments, a sound profile unique to the phrase that caused the excess of the predefined threshold may be generated such that future instances of the same phrase may be recognized prior to text data being generated, conserving the backend system's resources.
