Abstract: Natural language query translation may be provided. A statistical model may be trained to detect domains according to a plurality of query click log data. Upon receiving a natural language query, the statistical model may be used to translate the natural language query into an action. The action may then be performed and at least one result associated with performing the action may be provided.

Abstract: A computer-implemented technique is described herein for detecting actionable items in speech. In one manner of operation, the technique can include receiving utterance information that expresses at least one utterance made by one participant of a conversation to at least one other participant of the conversation. The technique can also include converting the utterance information into recognized speech information and using a machine-trained model to recognize at least one actionable item associated with the recognized speech information. The technique can also include performing at least one computer-implemented action associated the actionable item(s). The machine-trained model may correspond to a deep-structured convolutional neural network. The technique can produce the machine-trained model using a source environment corpus that is not optimally suited for a target environment in which the model is intended to be applied.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for combining active and unsupervised learning for automatic speech recognition. This process enables a reduction in the amount of human supervision required for training acoustic and language models and an increase in the performance given the transcribed and un-transcribed data.

Abstract: A computer-implemented technique is described herein for detecting actionable items in speech. In one manner of operation, the technique entails: receiving utterance information that expresses at least one utterance made by one participant of a conversation to at least one other participant of the conversation; converting the utterance information into recognized speech information; using a machine-trained model to recognize at least one actionable item associated with the recognized speech information; and performing at least one computer-implemented action associated the actionable item(s). The machine-trained model may correspond to a deep-structured convolutional neural network. In some implementations, the technique produces the machine-trained model using a source environment corpus that is not optimally suited for a target environment in which the model is intended to be applied.

Abstract: Joint decoding of words and tags may be provided. Upon receiving an input from a user comprising a plurality of elements, the input may be decoded into a word lattice comprising a plurality of words. A tag may be assigned to each of the plurality of words and a most-likely sequence of word-tag pairs may be identified. The most-likely sequence of word-tag pairs may be evaluated to identify an action request from the user.
