  • Patent number: 11366970
    Abstract: A semantic analysis method includes: inputting a word vector of each word in each sample sentence in a dialog flow into an encoder model, to obtain a sentence vector representing semantics of the sample sentence; inputting the sentence vector into a first decoder model corresponding to each context sentence of the sample sentence and a second decoder model corresponding to each word of the sample sentence, to obtain a first identifier corresponding to the context sentence and a second identifier corresponding to the word; obtaining a probability of the first identifier and a probability of the second identifier, and determining a value of a target function; performing parameter training on the encoder model according to the value of the target function; and inputting a word vector of each word in a test sentence into the trained encoder model, to obtain a sentence vector representing semantics of the test sentence.

  • Patent number: 11050685
    Abstract: A method for determining a candidate input is provided. Text that precedes and/or follows a current text input location in an input interface is acquired. A candidate sentence is acquired based on the text which is contained in a current sentence that corresponds to the current text input location. A preset number of possible conjunctions for the candidate sentence are determined based on occurrence probabilities of the possible conjunctions that are determined for the candidate sentence. The preset number of possible conjunctions are connected to the candidate sentence to obtain predicted candidate sentences. Occurrence probabilities of the predicted candidate sentences are calculated according to the text that precedes and/or follows the current text input location. Further, a preset number of the predicted candidate sentences are provided based on the calculated occurrence probabilities of the predicted candidate sentences as candidate inputs.

  • Patent number: 10862834
    Abstract: A chat message processing method is provided for a server. The method includes receiving a chat message sent by a sending terminal, where the chat message carries information about a receiving terminal, and forwarding the chat message to the receiving terminal. The method also includes, when determining that the chat message comprises an image, generating at least one group of descriptive texts used for describing the image; and sending the at least one group of descriptive texts of the image to the receiving terminal to cause the receiving terminal to, when displaying the image, simultaneously display the at least one group of descriptive texts as at least one candidate entering-item associated with the image.

  • Patent number: 10740564
    Abstract: A dialog generation method, apparatus, and device, and a storage medium are provided. The method includes converting each term in a Kth round of a query sentence into a first word vector, and calculating a positive latent vector and a negative latent vector of each term according to the first word vector, where K denotes a positive integer greater than or equal to 2. A content topic of the Kth round of the query sentence is obtained, and converted into a second word vector. An initial latent vector output for the Kth round of the query sentence is determined according to the second word vector, the positive latent vector of a last term in the Kth round of the query sentence, a latent vector of a last term in a (K-1)th round of a reply sentence output for a (K-1)th round of the query sentence, and an initial latent vector of the (K-1)th round of the reply sentence output for the (K-1)th round of the query sentence.
