Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable storage medium related to operating an intelligent digital assistant are disclosed. An event alert is detected, where the event alert includes context data. A representation of an intent is derived based at least in part on the context data. At least one domain, at least one task, and at least one parameter for the task are identified based at least in part on the representation of the intent. The identified task is performed using the at least one parameter. An output is provided to the user, where the output is related to the performance of the first task.

Abstract: A user request is received from a mobile client device, where the user request includes at least a speech input and seeks an informational answer or performance of a task. A failure to provide a satisfactory response to the user request is detected. In response to detection of the failure, information relevant to the user request is crowd-sourced by querying one or more crowd sourcing information sources. One or more answers are received from the crowd sourcing information sources, and the response to the user request is generated based on at least one of the one or more answers received from the one or more crowd sourcing information sources.

Abstract: A device can be configured to receive speech input from a user. The speech input can include a command for accessing a restricted feature of the device. The speech input can be compared to a voiceprint (e.g., text-independent voiceprint) of the user's voice to authenticate the user to the device. Responsive to successful authentication of the user to the device, the user is allowed access to the restricted feature without the user having to perform additional authentication steps or speaking the command again. If the user is not successfully authenticated to the device, additional authentication steps can be request by the device (e.g., request a password).

Abstract translation: 设备可被配置为从用户接收语音输入。 语音输入可以包括用于访问设备的受限特征的命令。 语音输入可以与用户语音的声纹（例如，文本无关的声纹）进行比较，以将用户认证到设备。 响应于用户对设备的成功认证，用户被允许访问受限特征，而用户不必执行附加认证步骤或再次说出该命令。 如果用户没有成功验证设备，则可以由设备请求附加的认证步骤（例如，请求密码）。

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable storage medium related to operating an intelligent digital assistant are disclosed. A text string is obtained from a speech input received from a user. The received text string is interpreted to derive a representation of user intent based at least in part on a plurality of words associated with a user and stored in memory associated with the user, the plurality of words including words from a plurality of user interactions with an automated assistant. At least one domain, a task, and at least one parameter for the task, are identified based at least in part on the representation of user intent. The identified task is performed. An output is provided to the user, where the output is related to the performance of the task.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable storage medium related to operating an intelligent digital assistant are disclosed. A user request is received, the user request including at least a speech input received from a user. Two or more alternative interpretations of user intent are obtained based on the received user request. One or more commonalities and one or more differences among the two or more alternative interpretations of user intent are identified. A response is provided to the user, the response presenting at least one of the identified differences and eliciting additional user input to choose among the two or more alternative interpretations of user intent based on the at least one difference.
