Abstract: A system that can engage in a dialog with a user may select a system response to a user input based on how the system estimates a user may respond to a potential system response. Models may be trained to evaluate a potential system response in view of various available data including dialog history, entity data, etc. Each model may score the potential system response for various qualitative aspects such as whether the response is likely to be comprehensible, on-topic, interesting, likely to lead to the dialog continuing, etc. Such scores may be combined to other scores such as whether the potential response is coherent or engaging. The models may be trained using previous dialog/chatbot evaluation data. At runtime the scores may be used to select a system response to a user input as part of the dialog.

Abstract: Described herein is a system for rescoring automatic speech recognition hypotheses for conversational devices that have multi-turn dialogs with a user. The system leverages dialog context by incorporating data related to past user utterances and data related to the system generated response corresponding to the past user utterance. Incorporation of this data improves recognition of a particular user utterance within the dialog.

Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for a Target Language Engine are presented. The Target Language Engine augments a synonym list in a base dictionary of a target language with one or more historical search queries previously submitted to search one or more listings in listing data. The Target Language Engine identifies a compound word and a plurality of words present in the listing data that have a common meaning in the target language. Each word from the plurality of words is present in the compound word. The Target Language Engine causes a database to create an associative link between the portion of text and a word selected from at least one of the synonym list or the plurality of words.

Abstract: Systems, methods and media are provided for training a snippet extractor to create snippets based on information extracted from published descriptions. In one example, a computer-implemented method includes creating, based on a non-RNN (Recurrent Neural Network) extraction technique performed on the published descriptions, a plurality of base models, each base model including one or more sample description summaries; evaluating the base models using an evaluation technique; selecting an optimum base model; developing a classification model using RNN extraction, the classification model based on description summaries contained in the optimum base model; and using the classification model to train the snippet extractor by machine learning.

Abstract: A lubricant or lubricant additive composed of halogen-, phosphorus- and sulphur-free ionic liquids containing fatty acid anions exhibit superior friction-reducing and anti-wear properties. Preferably, the lubricant composition comprises a base oil and an ionic liquid or mixed of two or more ionic liquids having concentration of 0.5 wt. % or more. These halogen-, phosphorus- and sulphur-free ionic liquids as lubricant or lubricant additive have minimal hazardous and corrosion effect to the environment and engineering surfaces, respectively. General chemical formula of fatty acid anion is represented as RCOO?; whereas R may be C4 to C30 straight chain alkyl, branched alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkyl substituted cycloalkyl, cycloalkyl substituted alkyl, alkenyl (single or more double bonds) includes with or without branched structure and may contain heteroatom.

Abstract: A thermal interface material including a compound which has high thermal conductivity, is dry-to-the-touch, but naturally tacky, and may be formed into various shapes, such as sheets and blocks, to serve as a heat transfer material for electronic components. The compound includes a pre-blend of a polyol ester and an antioxidant, a boron nitride filler, a high viscosity oil, and either a solvent, a surfactant, and a polystyrene-based polymer, or aluminum silicate. A method for using the compound includes the steps of providing a heat generating electronic component with a first surface; providing a heat dissipating component with a second surface with which the first surface is to interface; and disposing the compound between the respective surfaces to effectuate efficient heat transfer therebetween. Further, a removable liner can be applied to an exposed surface of the compound.
