Abstract: Providing at least one contextually relevant suggestion to one or more users of an ongoing message exchange thread between the users. The suggestion is provided for presentation to the user(s) via user interface output device(s) of computing device(s) of the user(s). The suggestion indicates a query that can be submitted to an automated assistant to cause the automated assistant to incorporate, into the message exchange thread, content that is responsive to the query. In some implementations, the suggestion is a selectable suggestion and content that is responsive to the query is incorporated into the message exchange thread in response to user interface input that is directed to the selectable suggestion. In some implementations, the suggestion is determined based on one or more messages that have already been communicated between users of the message exchange thread.

Abstract: Implementations relate to providing information items for display during a communication session. In some implementations, a computer-implemented method includes receiving, during a communication session between a first computing device and a second computing device, first media content from the communication session. The method further includes determining a first information item for display in the communication session based at least in part on the first media content. The method further includes sending a first command to at least one of the first computing device and the second computing device to display the first information item.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for determining query refinements using search data. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a first query and a second query each comprising one or more n-grams for a user session, determining a first set of query refinements for the first query, determining a second set of query refinements from the first set of query refinements, each query refinement in the second set of query refinements including at least one n-gram that is similar to an n-gram from the first query and at least on n-gram that is similar to an n-gram from the second query, scoring each query refinement in the second set of query refinements, selecting a third query from a group consisting of the second set of query refinements and the second query, and providing the third query as input to a search operation.

Abstract: Providing at least one contextually relevant suggestion to one or more users of an ongoing message exchange thread between the users. The suggestion is provided for presentation to the user(s) via user interface output device(s) of computing device(s) of the user(s). The suggestion indicates a query that can be submitted to an automated assistant to cause the automated assistant to incorporate, into the message exchange thread, content that is responsive to the query. In some implementations, the suggestion is a selectable suggestion and content that is responsive to the query is incorporated into the message exchange thread in response to user interface input that is directed to the selectable suggestion. In some implementations, the suggestion is determined based on one or more messages that have already been communicated between users of the message exchange thread.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for receiving a query provided from a user device, and determining that the query implicitly references some entity, and in response: obtaining an approximate location and an approximate orientation of the user device, obtaining a set of entities including one or more entities, each entity in the set of entities being at least partially within a range that is based on the approximate location and that includes an extended portion based on the approximate orientation, selecting an entity from the set of entities, and providing a revised query based on the query and the entity, the revised query explicitly referencing the entity.
