Abstract: The present disclosure provides computer-implemented systems and processes for augmenting user ratings of items, such as a rating of a song playing on a user device, by analyzing contextual information, such as user and/or device activity data associated with the device. The contextual information may be used to determine an associated intensity of the rating or feedback. The determined intensity levels can be used to weigh the associated rating events and improve the quality of item recommendations that are based on such ratings. Contextual information may indicate whether the user transitioned from another application to rate an item, device status information, and so on. In one embodiment, contextual information can be used to assess how intensely the user feels about a music item and to provide improved music recommendations, such as songs to provide in a playlist or radio station, based on the intensity.

Abstract: Techniques are described for automatically selecting musical content for playback based on an initial “seed” of music selected by a user in a way that seamlessly extends the user's listening experience. The initially selected seed music might be, for example, an album or a playlist. Music that follows the seed music is algorithmically selected to match the music selected by the user.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for training a language recognition model. For example, a language recognition model may be maintained and associated with a reference language (e.g., English). The language recognition model may be configured to accept as input an utterance in the reference language and to identify a feature to be executed in response to receiving the utterance. New language data (e.g., other utterances) provided in a different language (e.g., German) may be obtained. This new language data may be translated to English and utilized to retrain the model to recognize reference language data as well as language data translated to the reference language. Subsequent utterances (e.g., English utterances, or German utterances translated to English) may be provided to the updated model and a feature may be identified. One or more instructions may be sent to a user device to execute a set of instructions associated with the feature.

Abstract: A technology for synchronizing text with audio includes analyzing the audio to identify voice segments in the audio where a human voice is present and to identify non-voice segments in proximity to the voice segments. Segmented text associated with the audio, having text segments, may be identified and synchronized to the voice segments.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for training a target language model based at least in part on data associated with a reference language model. For example, language data utilized to train an English language model may be translated and provided as training data to train a German language model to recognize utterances provided in German. By utilizing the techniques herein, the efficiency of training a new language model may be improved due at least in part to replacing labor-intensive operations conventionally performed by specialized personnel with machine-generated data. Additionally, techniques discussed herein provide for reducing the time required for training a new language model by leveraging information associated with utterances of one language to train the new language model associated with a different language.

Abstract: Approaches provide for using a voice communications device to control, refine, or otherwise manage the playback of media content in response to a spoken instruction. For example, the voice communications device can receive a request to refine and/or initiate the playback of media content, such as music, news, audio books, audio broadcasts, and other such content. Audio input data that includes the request can be received by the voice communications device and an application executing on the voice communications device or otherwise in communication with the voice communications device can analyze the audio input data to determine how to carry out the request. The application can determine whether there is an active play queue of media content configured to play using the voice communications device. In the situation where there is no media content being played using the voice communications device, the application can determine media content using information in the request. In the situation where there is an active play queue of media content, the information can be used to refine the play queue. Thereafter, the application can cause the media content associated with the active play queue to play using the voice-enable communications device.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for presenting content items that are related to media items that are currently being consumed by a user. A media item in a stream of media items being presented to a client is identified. A content item that is relevant to the media item is determined. An entry is added to the entries of a relevant content listing. The entry includes a link to the content item. The entries in the relevant content listing are arranged in a time-based sequence such that the at least one entry correlates to a sequence of playback in the client of a plurality of media files. The relevant content listing is updated in a user interface that is being presented to the user.
