Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer-readable media are described herein related to keyword-based conversational searching using voice commands. A computing device can receive an audio command for performing a search query. The computing device may receive a plurality of keywords associated with a subject matter of the search query, and computing device may configure the plurality of keywords as a plurality of audio instructions receivable by the computing device to cause the computing device to perform a subsequent search query. The computing device can then provide the plurality of keywords for display, along with search results associated with the search query.

Abstract translation: 本文中描述了使用语音命令的基于关键字的会话搜索的方法，装置和计算机可读介质。 计算设备可以接收用于执行搜索查询的音频命令。 计算设备可以接收与搜索查询的主题相关联的多个关键字，并且计算设备可以将多个关键词配置为可由计算设备接收的多个音频指令，以使得计算设备执行后续的搜索查询 。 然后，计算设备可以提供用于显示的多个关键字以及与搜索查询相关联的搜索结果。

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for scoring candidate answer passages. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a query determined to be a question query that seeks an answer response and data identifying resources determined to be responsive to the query; for a subset of the resources: receiving candidate answer passages; determining, for each candidate answer passage, a query term match score that is a measure of similarity of the query terms to the candidate answer passage; determining, for each candidate answer passage, an answer term match score that is a measure of similarity of answer terms to the candidate answer passage; determining, for each candidate answer passage, a query dependent score based on the query term match score and the answer term match score; and generating an answer score that is a based on the query dependent score.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for identifying implicit question queries. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a query in unstructured form, comparing terms of the query to query templates, determining, based on the comparison, a match of the query terms to a first query template, wherein the first query template is not determined to be indicative of a question query, determining, based on the first query template, a second query template, and determining that the query is an implicit question query in response to the second query template being indicative of a question queries.

Abstract translation: 方法，系统和装置，包括在计算机存储介质上编码的计算机程序，用于识别隐含的问题查询。 一方面，一种方法包括以非结构形式接收查询，将查询的条款与查询模板进行比较，基于比较确定查询词语与第一查询模板的匹配，其中第一查询模板未被确定 指示问题查询，基于第一查询模板确定第二查询模板，并且响应于第二查询模板指示问题查询来确定该查询是隐式问题查询。

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for generating synthetic queries using seed queries and structural similarity between documents are described. In one aspect, a method includes identifying embedded coding fragments (e.g., HTML tag) from a structured document and a seed query; generating one or more query templates, each query template corresponding to at least one coding fragment, the query template including a generative rule to be used in generating candidate synthetic queries; generating the candidate synthetic queries by applying the query templates to other documents that are hosted on the same web site as the document; identifying terms that match structure of the query templates as candidate synthetic queries; measuring a performance for each of the candidate synthetic queries; and designating as synthetic queries the candidate synthetic queries that have performance measurements exceeding a performance threshold.
