    Abstract: Systems and processes for operating an electronic device to train a machine-learning translation system are described. In one process, a first set of training data is obtained. The first set of training data includes at least one payload in a first language and a translation of the at least one payload in a second language. The process further includes obtaining one or more templates for adapting the at least one payload; adapting the at least one payload using the one or more templates to generate at least one adapted payload formulated as a translation request; generating a second set of training data based on the at least one adapted payload; and training the machine-learning translation system using the second set of training data.

    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to context-based endpoint detection in user speech input. A method for identifying an endpoint of a spoken request by a user may include receiving user input of natural language speech including one or more words; identifying at least one context associated with the user input; generating a probability, based on the at least one context associated with the user input, that a location in the user input is an endpoint; determining whether the probability is greater than a threshold; and in accordance with a determination that the probability is greater than the threshold, identifying the location in the user input as the endpoint.

    Abstract: Systems and processes for processing speech in a digital assistant are provided. In one example process, a first speech input can be received from a user. The first speech input can be processed using a first automatic speech recognition system to produce a first recognition result. An input indicative of a potential error in the first recognition result can be received. The input can be used to improve the first recognition result. For example, the input can include a second speech input that is a repetition of the first speech input. The second speech input can be processed using a second automatic speech recognition system to produce a second recognition result.

    Abstract: Speech recognition is performed on a received utterance to determine a plurality of candidate text representations of the utterance, including a primary text representation and one or more alternative text representations. Natural language processing is performed on the primary text representation to determine a plurality of candidate actionable intents, including a primary actionable intent and one or more alternative actionable intents. A result is determined based on the primary actionable intent. The result is provided to the user. A recognition correction trigger is detected. In response to detecting the recognition correction trigger, a set of alternative intent affordances and a set of alternative text affordances are concurrently displayed.

    Abstract: Systems and processes are disclosed for discovering trending terms in automatic speech recognition. Candidate terms (e.g., words, phrases, etc.) not yet found in a speech recognizer vocabulary or having low language model probability can be identified based on trending usage in a variety of electronic data sources (e.g., social network feeds, news sources, search queries, etc.). When candidate terms are identified, archives of live or recent speech traffic can be searched to determine whether users are uttering the candidate terms in dictation or speech requests. Such searching can be done using open vocabulary spoken term detection to find phonetic matches in the audio archives. As the candidate terms are found in the speech traffic, notifications can be generated that identify the candidate terms, provide relevant usage statistics, identify the context in which the terms are used, and the like.
