Abstract: The present disclosure relates to application of artificial intelligence (AI) processing that adapts one or more video feeds relative to presentation content. Trained AI processing automatically generates a combined representation comprising one or more video feeds and presentation content. An exemplary combined representation is the result of contextual analysis by one or more trained AI models that are adapted to consider how to adapt presentation of a video feed relative to displayable presentation content (or visa-versa). A combined representation of one or more video feeds and presentation content is automatically generated (and subsequently rendered) based on a result of contextual evaluation of data associated with a video feed and data attributes of presentation content. A combined representation may comprise a modification of the one or more video feeds, objects of presentation content or a combination thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for performing biometric authentication of users using an application running on a client device. A biometric model can be trained using biometric data from a population of users. The biometric model can be used by the client application to authenticate users and can be separate from system-level biometric authentication capabilities of the client device.

Abstract: Automatic generation of intelligent content is created using a system of computers including a user device and a cloud-based component that processes the user information. The system performs a process that includes receiving an input document and parsing the input document to generate inputs for a natural language generation model using a text analysis model. The natural language generation model generates one or more candidate presentation scripts based on the inputs. A presentation script is selected from the candidate presentation scripts and displayed. A text-to-speech model may be used to generate a synthesized audio presentation of the presentation script. A final presentation may be generated that includes a visual display of the input document and the corresponding audio presentation in sync with the visual display.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for detecting a mission changes in a conversation. A user utterance from a user device is received. The user utterance is part of a conversation with an intelligent assistant. The conversation includes preceding user utterances in pursuit of a first mission. It is determined that the user utterance indicates a mission change from the first mission to a second mission based on an application of a machine-learned model to the user utterance and the preceding user utterances. The machine-learned model has been trained repeatedly with past utterances of other users over a time period, the determining based on a certainty of the indication satisfying a certainty threshold. Responsive to the determining that the user utterance indicates the mission change from the first mission to a second mission, a reply to the user utterance is generated to further the second mission rather than the first mission.

Abstract: A real-time name mispronunciation detection feature can enable a user to receive instant feedback anytime they have mispronounced another person's name in an online meeting. The feature can receive audio input of a speaker and obtain a transcript of the audio input; identify a name from text of the transcript based on names of meeting participants; and extract a portion of the audio input corresponding to the name identified from the text of the transcript. The feature can obtain a reference pronunciation for the name using a user identifier associated with the name; and can obtain a pronunciation score for the name based on a comparison between the reference pronunciation for the name and the portion of the audio input corresponding to the name. The feature can then determine whether the pronunciation score is below a threshold; and in response, notify the speaker of a pronunciation error.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to processing operations that execute image classification training for domain-specific traffic, where training operations are entirely compliant with data privacy regulations and policies. Image classification model training, as described herein, is configured to classify meaningful image categories in domain-specific scenarios where there is unknown data traffic and strict data compliance requirements that result in privacy-limited image data sets. Iterative image classification training satisfies data compliance requirements through a combination of online image classification training and offline image classification training. This results in tuned image recognition classifiers that have improved accuracy and efficiency over general image recognition classifiers when working with domain-specific data traffic. One or more image recognition classifiers are independently trained and tuned to detect an image class for image classification.

Abstract: Understanding emojis in the context of online experiences is described. In at least some embodiments, text input is received and a vector representation of the text input is computed. Based on the vector representation, one or more emojis that correspond to the vector representation of the text input are ascertained and a response is formulated that includes at least one of the one or more emojis. In other embodiments, input from a client machine is received. The input includes at least one emoji. A computed vector representation of the emoji is used to look for vector representations of words or phrases that are close to the computed vector representation of the emoji. At least one of the words or phrases is selected and at least one task is performed using the selected word(s) or phrase(s).

Abstract: Aspect pre-selection techniques using machine learning are described. In one example, an artificial assistant system is configured to implement a chat bot. A user then engages in a first natural-language conversation. As part of this first natural-language conversation, a communication is generated by the chat bot to prompt the user to specify an aspect of a category that is a subject of a first natural-language conversation and user data is received in response.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to processing operations configured to provide processing that automatically analyzes acoustic signals from attendees of a live presentation and automatically triggers corresponding reaction indications from results of analysis thereof. Exemplary reaction indications provide feedback for live presentations that can be presented in real-time (or near real-time) without requiring a user to manually take action to provide any feedback. As a non-limiting example, reaction indications may be presented in a form that is easy to visualize and understand such as emojis or icons. Another example of a reaction indication is a graphical user interface (GUI) notification that provides a predictive indication of user intent derived from analysis of acoustic signals.

Abstract: The present disclosure applies trained artificial intelligence (AI) processing adapted to automatically generating transformations of formatted templates. Pre-existing formatted templates (e.g., slide-based presentation templates) are leveraged by the trained AI processing to automatically generate a plurality of high-quality template transformations. In transforming a formatted template, the trained AI processing not only generates feature transformation of objects thereof but may also provide style transformations where attributes associated with a presentation theme may be modified for a formatted template or set of formatted templates. The trained AI processing is novel in that it is tailored for analysis of feature data of a specific type of formatted template.

Abstract: A data processing system implements receiving query text for a search query for textual content recommendation. The query text includes one or more words indicating a type of textual content items being sought. The system implements analyzing the query text using a first machine learning (ML) model to obtain encoded query text, where the first ML model is trained to identify features within the query text and to generate the encoded query text by mapping the features to a hyper-dimensional latent space (HDLS). The system implements identifying one or more content items in a database of encoded content items mapped to the HDLS that satisfy the search query by comparing attributes of the encoded query text with attributes of the encoded content items to identify content items that are closest to the encoded query text within the HDLS, and causing the one or more content items to be displayed.
