Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for inserting dialogue into query responses by generating and using dialogue metadata in conjunction with response templates. Metadata for each portion of dialogue of a plurality of portions of dialogue from a number of content items is stored, including information regarding the source content item, a transcript of the dialogue, and grammatical information. Upon receiving a query related to a content item, a type of response is first determined. Based on the type of response, and using the dialogue metadata, a portion of dialogue is identified for insertion into the response. The identified portion of dialogue is retrieved and inserted at an appropriate position within the response. The response is then generated for output.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for disambiguating a voice search query that contains a command keyword by determining whether the user spoke a quotation from a content item and whether the user mimicked or approximated the way the quotation is spoken in the content item. The voice search query is transcribed into a string, and an audio signature of the voice search query is identified. Metadata of a quotation matching the string is retrieved from a database that includes audio signature information for the string as spoken within the content item. The audio signature of the voice search query is compared with the audio signature information in the metadata to determine whether the audio signature matches the audio signature information in the quotation metadata. If a match is detected, then a search result comprising an identifier of the content item from which the quotation comes is generated.

Abstract: User experience parameters are applied in formatting results to a query for presentation. The user experience parameters correspond to at least one particular subject related to the query.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for locally interpreting a voice query and for managing a storage size of data stored locally to support such local interpretation of voice queries. A voice query is received and compared with a plurality of stored voice queries having similar audio characteristics. If a match is identified, text corresponding to the matching stored voice query is retrieved, and an action corresponding to the retrieved text is performed. If the locally stored table does not contain a stored voice query that matches the voice query, the voice query is transmitted to a remote server for transcription. Once the transcription is received from the remote server, the voice query and the transcription are stored in the table in association with one another.

Abstract: Methods and systems for filtering video content items are described herein. The system identifies a plurality of video content items that are linked to respective image content items. The system determines, for each of the plurality of video content items, whether a video content item corresponds to a respective image content item. In response to the determining, the system causes to be provided information identifying the plurality of video content items excluding video content items that do not correspond to respective image content items.

Abstract: Methods and systems for filtering video content items are described herein. The system identifies a plurality of video content items that are linked to respective image content items. The system determines, for each of the plurality of video content items, whether a video content item corresponds to a respective image content item. The system causes to be provided information identifying the plurality of video content items. For each video content item of the plurality of video content items that corresponds to a respective image content item, the system causes to be provided an indicator that correspondence has been verified.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for disambiguating a voice search query by determining whether the user made a gesture while speaking a quotation from a content item and whether the user mimicked or approximated a gesture made by a character in the content item when the character spoke the words quoted by the user. If so, a search result comprising an identifier of the content item is generated. A search result representing the content item from which the quotation comes may be ranked highest among other search results returned and therefore presented first in a list of search results. If the user did not mimic or approximate a gesture made by a character in the content item when the quotation is spoken in the content item, then a search result may not be generated for the content item or may be ranked lowest among other search results.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for selecting alternate routes with fewer directions during vehicle navigation. The disclosed techniques herein determine directions from route data and direction timestamps for each of the directions. For each direction, a corresponding media asset from media assets in a playlist having a media asset duration that matches a direction duration is determined. The direction duration is the time difference between the direction timestamp and a subsequent direction timestamp.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for providing uninterrupted media content by reordering playlists during vehicle navigation. The disclosed techniques herein determine directions from route data and navigation announcements for each of the directions. For each direction, a corresponding media asset from media assets in a playlist having a media asset duration that matches a direction duration is determined. The direction duration is the time difference between the navigation announcement and a subsequent navigation announcement.
