  • Patent number: 11715042
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes training a target machine-learning model iteratively by accessing training data of content objects, training an intermediate machine-learning model that outputs contextual evaluation measurements based on the training data, generating state-indications associated with the training data, wherein the state-indications comprise user-intents, system actions, and user actions, training the target machine-learning model based on the contextual evaluation measurements, the state-indications, and an action set comprising possible system actions, extracting rules based on the target machine-learning model by a sequential pattern-mining model, generating synthetic training data based on the rules, updating the training data by adding the synthetic training data to the training data, determining if a completion condition is reached for the training, and if the completion condition is reached returning the target machine-learning model, else repeating the iterative training of the tar

  • Patent number: 11669918
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a user input at a client system, wherein the user input is associated with one or more intents and one or more slots, generating one or more first dialog acts based on the user input, calculating a task-confidence score based on one or more intent-confidence scores associated with the one or more intents, respectively, and one or more slot-confidence scores associated with the one or more slots, respectively, generating one or more second dialog acts modifying the one or more first dialog acts responsive to the task-confidence score being less than a threshold score, and presenting a response to the user input at the client system, wherein the response is based on one or more of the first dialog acts or the second dialog acts.

  • Patent number: 11657094
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a query from a user from a client system associated with the user, determining one or more initial memory slots based on the query, accessing a memory graph associated with the user which comprises a plurality of nodes and a plurality of edges connecting the nodes, and wherein one or more of the nodes correspond to one or more episodic memories of the user, respectively, and wherein each edge corresponds to a relationship between the connected nodes, selecting one or more candidate nodes from the memory graph by one or more machine-learning models based on the initial memory slots, generating a response based on the initial memory slots and episodic memories corresponding to the selected candidate nodes, and sending instructions for presenting the response to the client system in response to the query.
