Abstract: Techniques for providing a contextual voice user interface that enables a user to query a speech processing system with respect to the decisions made to answer the user's command are described. The speech processing system may store speech processing pipeline data used to process a command. At some point after the system outputs content deemed responsive to the command, a user may speak an utterance corresponding to an inquiry with respect to the processing performed to respond to the command. For example, the user may state “why did you tell me that?” In response thereto, the speech processing system may determine the stored speech processing pipeline data used to respond to the command, and may generate output audio data that describes the data and computing decisions involved in determining the content deemed responsive to the command.

Abstract: A system for processing user utterances and/or text based queries that tracks entities and other context data of a current dialog between the system and the user and can fill slots for new intents of the dialog by performing statistical processing on previously mentioned entities with respect to current slots to be filled. The system may compare a previously mentioned entity to a current slot to be filled using vector representations, such as word embeddings, of the current utterance, dialog history, current intent, name of an entity under consideration, category of the current slot to be filled, distance between the current dialog turn and the dialog turn that mentioned the entity, and other considerations. The individual vectors may be weighted according to an attention operation and processed by a trained decoder to output a score indicating whether the entity in consideration is relevant to the particular slot.
