    Abstract: Systems and processes for operating an intelligent automated assistant in a messaging environment are provided. In one example process, a graphical user interface (GUI) having a plurality of previous messages between a user of the electronic device and the digital assistant can be displayed on a display. The plurality of previous messages can be presented in a conversational view. User input can be received and in response to receiving the user input, the user input can be displayed as a first message in the GUI. A contextual state of the electronic device corresponding to the displayed user input can be stored. The process can cause an action to be performed in accordance with a user intent derived from the user input. A response based on the action can be displayed as a second message in the GUI.

    Abstract: Techniques for processing task items are provided. A task item is electronic data that represents a task to be performed, whether manually or automatically. A task item includes one or more details about its corresponding task, such as a description of the task and a location of the task. Specifically, techniques for generating task items, organizing task items, triggering notifications of task items, and consuming task items are described. In one approach, a task item is generated based on input from a user and context of the input. In another approach, different attributes of task items are used to organize the task items intelligently into multiple lists. In another approach, actions other than the generation of notification are enabled or automatically performed, actions such as emailing, calling, texting, and searching.

    Abstract: Systems and processes are disclosed for handling a multi-part voice command for a virtual assistant. Speech input can be received from a user that includes multiple actionable commands within a single utterance. A text string can be generated from the speech input using a speech transcription process. The text string can be parsed into multiple candidate substrings based on domain keywords, imperative verbs, predetermined substring lengths, or the like. For each candidate substring, a probability can be determined indicating whether the candidate substring corresponds to an actionable command. Such probabilities can be determined based on semantic coherence, similarity to user request templates, querying services to determine manageability, or the like. If the probabilities exceed a threshold, the user intent of each substring can be determined, processes associated with the user intents can be executed, and an acknowledgment can be provided to the user.

    Abstract translation: 公开了用于处理虚拟助理的多部分语音命令的系统和过程。 语音输入可以从包含单个话语中的多个可操作命令的用户接收。 可以使用语音转录过程从语音输入生成文本串。 文本字符串可以基于域关键字,命令动词,预定子字符长度等被解析成多个候选子字符串。 对于每个候选子串,可以确定指示候选子串是否对应于可动作命令的概率。 这样的概率可以基于语义一致性,与用户请求模板的相似性,查询服务以确定可管理性等来确定。 如果概率超过阈值,则可以确定每个子串的用户意图,可以执行与用户意图相关联的过程,并且可以向用户提供确认。

    Abstract: The method includes receiving, from a user, a first speech input spoken in a first language; inferring a user intent based on at least the first speech input in the first language; based on the inferred user intent, generating one or more alternative expressions of the first speech input in the first language; and providing feedback to the user introducing the alternative expressions as a more preferred input to express the inferred user intent than the first speech input provided by the user.

    Abstract translation: 该方法包括从用户接收以第一语言发出的第一语音输入; 基于至少基于第一语言的第一语音输入来推断用户意图; 基于所推断的用户意图,生成第一语言中的第一语音输入的一个或多个替代表达; 并且向用户提供反馈,引入替代表达作为比用户提供的第一语音输入更优选的输入来表达推断的用户意图。
