    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining whether an ambiguous statement applies to a first query or second query. In some aspects, the system includes control circuitry that receives a first search query from a user. The control circuitry determines a syntactic mapping and contextual mapping of the first query. The control circuitry receives a second search query following the first search query. The control circuitry merges the queries. The control circuitry determines whether syntactic mappings for the second query and the portion of the merged query corresponding to the second query are equivalent. In response to determining that the second syntactic mapping and the portion of the third syntactic mapping are equivalent, the control circuitry selects a contextual mapping of the second or merged query based on user contextual information. The control circuitry determines a media asset from the media assets that is related to the first and second queries.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for a media guidance application that authorizes a user device to receive commands from selected users and does not authorize the user device to accept commands from non-selected users. Moreover, the media guidance application may authorize the user device to accept commands from a first user based on how other users interact with the first user. For example, if the actions of other users indicate that the first user is the leader of the group of users (or should otherwise be the one controlling the user device), the media guidance application may authorize the user device to accept commands from the first user based on the actions.

    Abstract: In some aspects, control circuitry receives and stores a user-specified time duration to associate with a skip-forward command. When the user later issues a skip-forward command to advance playback of a media asset to a desired location, the control circuitry retrieves the stored time duration, and determines an expected overshoot value associated with the skip-forward command. The control circuitry then compensates for the expected overshoot by calculating a new location in the media asset based on both the retrieved time duration and expected overshoot value. Upon advancing to the new location, the media asset is played back in a fast-forward mode, e.g., at a speed higher than normal speed.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for searching for a media asset are described. In some aspects, the system includes control circuitry that receives a first search query from a user. The control circuitry identifies media assets related to the first search query from a content database. The control circuitry receives a second search query following the first search query. The control circuitry determines whether a media asset from the media assets is related to the second search query. In response to determining that less than a threshold number of media assets from the media assets are related to the second search query, the control circuitry transmits an instruction requesting the user to repeat the second search query. The control circuitry receives a third search query related to the first search query. The control circuitry determines a media asset from the media assets that is related to the third search query.
