This relates generally to intelligent automated assistants and, more specifically, to intelligent automated assistants operating in a media environment.
Intelligent automated assistants (or digital assistants) can provide an intuitive interface between users and electronic devices. These assistants can allow users to interact with devices or systems using natural language in spoken and/or text forms. For example, a user can access the services of an electronic device by providing a spoken user input in natural language form to a virtual assistant associated with the electronic device. The virtual assistant can perform natural language processing on the spoken user input to infer the user's intent and operationalize the user's intent into tasks. The tasks can then be performed by executing one or more functions of the electronic device, and, in some examples, a relevant output can be returned to the user in natural language form.
Integrating digital assistants in a media environment (e.g., televisions, television set-top boxes, cable boxes, gaming devices, streaming media devices, digital video recorders, etc.) can be desirable to assist users with tasks related to media consumption. For example, a digital assistant can be utilized to assist with finding desirable media content to consume. However, user interactions with a digital assistant may include audio and visual output, which can disrupt the consumption of media content. It can thus be challenging to integrate digital assistants in a media environment in a manner such that sufficient assistance is provided to the user while disruptions to the consumption of media content are minimized.
Systems and processes are disclosed for operating a digital assistant in a media environment. In some exemplary processes, user input can be detected while displaying content. The process can determine whether the user input corresponds to a first input type. In accordance with a determination that the user input corresponds to a first input type, a plurality of exemplary natural language requests can be displayed. The plurality of exemplary natural language requests can be contextually-related to the displayed content.
In some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that the user input does not correspond to a first input type, the process can determine whether the user input corresponds to a second input type. In accordance with a determination that the user input corresponds to a second input type, audio data can be sampled. The process can determine whether the audio data contains a user request. In accordance with a determination that the audio data contains a user request, a task that at least partially satisfies the user request can be performed. In some examples, the task can include obtaining results that at least partially satisfy the user request and displaying a second user interface with a portion of the results. A portion of the content can continue to be displayed while the second user interface is displayed, and a display area of the second user interface can be smaller than a display area of the portion of the content.
In some embodiments, a third user input can be detected while displaying the second user interface. In response to detecting the third user input, display of the second user interface can be replaced with display of a third user interface with the portion of the results. The third user interface can occupy at least a majority of a display area of a display unit. In addition, second results that at least partially satisfy the user request can be obtained. The second results can be different from the results. The third user interface can include at least a portion of the second results.
In some embodiments, a fourth user input can be detected while displaying the third user interface. The fourth user input can indicate a direction. In response to detecting the fourth user input, a focus of the third user interface can be switched from a first item in the third user interface to a second item in the third user interface. The second item can be positioned in the indicated direction relative to the first item.
In some embodiments, a fifth user input can be detected while displaying the third user interface. In response to detecting the fifth user input, a search field can be displayed. Additionally, a virtual keyboard interface can be displayed, where input received via the virtual keyboard interface can cause text entry in the search field. Further, in some embodiments, a selectable affordance can be caused to appear on a display of a second electronic device, where selection of the affordance enables text input to be received by the electronic device via a keyboard of the second electronic device.
In some embodiments, a sixth user input can be detected while displaying the third user interface. In response to detecting the sixth user input, second audio data containing a second user request can be sampled. The process can determine whether the second user request is a request to refine the results of the user request. In accordance with a determination that the second user request is a request to refine the results of the user request, a subset of the results can be displayed via the third user interface. In accordance with a determination that the second user request is not a request to refine the results of the user request, third results that at least partially satisfy the second user request can be obtained. A portion of the third results can be displayed via the third user interface.
In some embodiments, the sampled audio data can include a user utterance, and a user intent corresponding to the user utterance can be determined. The process can determine whether the user intent comprises a request to adjust a state or a setting of an application. In accordance with a determination that the user intent comprises a request to adjust a state or a setting of an application, the state or the setting of the application can be adjusted to satisfy the user intent.
In some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that the user intent does not comprise a request to adjust a state or a setting of an application on the electronic device, the process can determine whether the user intent is one of a plurality of predetermined request types. In accordance with a determination that the user intent is one of a plurality of predetermined request types, text-only results that at least partially satisfy the user intent can be displayed.
In some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that the user intent is not one of a plurality of predetermined request types, the process can determine whether the displayed content comprises media content. In accordance with a determination that the displayed content comprises media content, the process can further determine whether the media content can be paused. In accordance with a determination that the media content can be paused, the media content is paused, and results that at least partially satisfy the user intent can be displayed via the third user interface. The third user interface can occupy at least a majority of a display area of a display unit. In accordance with a determination that the media content cannot be paused, the results can be displayed via the second user interface while the media content is displayed. A display area occupied by the second user interface can be smaller than a display area occupied by the media content. Further, in some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that the displayed content does not comprise media content, the results can be displayed via the third user interface.
In the following description of examples, reference is made to the accompanying drawings in which it is shown by way of illustration specific examples that can be practiced. It is to be understood that other examples can be used and structural changes can be made without departing from the scope of the various examples.
This relates to systems and process for operating a digital assistant in a media environment. In one example process, user input can be detected while displaying content. The process can determine whether the user input corresponds to a first input type. In accordance with a determination that the user input corresponds to a first input type, a plurality of exemplary natural language requests can be displayed. The plurality of exemplary natural language requests can be contextually-related to the displayed content. The contextually-related exemplary natural language request can be desirable to conveniently inform a user of the capabilities of the digital assistant that are most relevant to the user's current use condition on the media device. This can encourage the user to utilize the services of the digital assistant and can also improve the user's interactive experience with the digital assistant.
In some embodiments, in accordance with a determination that the user input does not correspond to a first input type, the process can determine whether the user input corresponds to a second input type. In accordance with a determination that the user input corresponds to a second input type, audio data can be sampled. The process can determine whether the audio data contains a user request. In accordance with a determination that the audio data contains a user request, a task that at least partially satisfies the user request can be performed.
In some embodiments, the task performed can depend on the nature of the user request and the content that is displayed while the user input of a second input type is detected. If the user request is a request to adjust a state or a setting of an application on the electronic device (e.g., turning on subtitles for displayed media content), the task can include adjusting the state or setting of the application. If the user request is one of a plurality of predetermined request types associated with text-only output (e.g., a request for the current time), the task can include displaying text that satisfies the user request. If the displayed content includes media content and the user request requires results to be obtained and displayed, the process can determine whether the media content can be paused. If it is determined that the media content can be paused, the media content is paused and results that satisfy that user request can be displayed on an expanded user interface (e.g., third user interface 626, shown in
1. System and Environment
Specifically, a digital assistant can be capable of accepting a user request at least partially in the form of a natural language command, request, statement, narrative, and/or inquiry. Typically, the user request can seek either an informational answer or performance of a task by the digital assistant. A satisfactory response to the user request can be a provision of the requested informational answer, a performance of the requested task, or a combination of the two. For example, a user can ask the digital assistant a question, such as “What time is it in Paris?” The digital assistant can retrieve the requested information and respond, “It's 4:00 PM in Paris.” The user can also request the performance of a task, for example, “Find movies starring Reese Witherspoon.” In response, the digital assistant can perform the requested search query and display relevant movie titles for the user to select from. During performance of a requested task, the digital assistant can sometimes interact with the user in a continuous dialogue involving multiple exchanges of information over an extended period of time. There are numerous other ways of interacting with a digital assistant to request information or performance of various tasks. In addition to providing text responses and taking programmed actions, the digital assistant can also provide responses in other visual or audio forms, e.g., as verbal, alerts, music, images, videos, animations, etc. Moreover, as discussed herein, an exemplary digital assistant can control playback of media content (e.g., on a television set-top box) and cause media content or other information to be displayed on a display unit (e.g., a television). The display unit can be referred to as a display.

For example, communications module 420 can communicate with the communication subsystems (e.g., 224, 324) of electronic devices (e.g., 104, 122). Communications module 420 can also include various components for handling data received by wireless circuitry 414 and/or wired communications port 412.
User interface module 422 can receive commands and/or inputs from a user via 1/O interface 406 (e.g., from a keyboard, touchscreen, pointing device, controller, and/or microphone), and generate user interface objects on a display. User interface module 422 can also prepare and deliver outputs (e.g., speech, sound, animation, text, icons, vibrations, haptic feedback, light, etc.) to the user via the I/O interface 406 (e.g., through displays, audio channels, speakers, touch-pads, etc.).
Applications 424 can include programs and/or modules that are configured to be executed by one or more processors 404. For example, if digital assistant system 400 is implemented on a standalone user device, applications 424 can include user applications, such as games, a calendar application, a navigation application, or an email application. If digital assistant system 400 is implemented on a server, applications 424 can include resource management applications, diagnostic applications, or scheduling applications, for example.
Memory 402 can also store digital assistant module 426 (or the server portion of a digital assistant). In some examples, digital assistant module 426 can include the following sub-modules, or a subset or superset thereof: I/O processing module 428, speech-to-text (STT) processing module 430, natural language processing module 432, dialogue flow processing module 434, task flow processing module 436, service processing module 438, and speech synthesis module 440. Each of these modules can have access to one or more of the following systems or data and models of the digital assistant module 426, or a subset or superset thereof: ontology 460, vocabulary index 444, user data 448, task flow models 454, service models 456, and automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems 431.
In some examples, using the processing modules, data, and models implemented in digital assistant module 426, the digital assistant can perform at least some of the following: converting speech input into text; identifying a user's intent expressed in a natural language input received from the user; actively eliciting and obtaining information needed to fully infer the user's intent (e.g., by disambiguating words, games, intentions, etc.); determining the task flow for fulfilling the inferred intent; and executing the task flow to fulfill the inferred intent.
In some examples, as shown in
STT processing module 430 can include one or more ASR systems (e.g., ASR systems 431). The one or more ASR systems can process the speech input that is received through I/O processing module 428 to produce a recognition result. Each ASR system can include a front-end speech pre-processor. The front-end speech pre-processor can extract representative features from the speech input. For example, the front-end speech pre-processor can perform a Fourier transform on the speech input to extract spectral features that characterize the speech input as a sequence of representative multi-dimensional vectors. Further, each ASR system can include one or more speech recognition models (e.g., acoustic models and/or language models) and can implement one or more speech recognition engines. Examples of speech recognition models can include Hidden Markov Models, Gaussian-Mixture Models, Deep Neural Network Models, n-gram language models, and other statistical models. Examples of speech recognition engines can include the dynamic time warping based engines and weighted finite-state transducers (WFST) based engines. The one or more speech recognition models and the one or more speech recognition engines can be used to process the extracted representative features of the front-end speech pre-processor to produce intermediate recognitions results (e.g., phonemes, phonemic strings, and sub-words), and ultimately, text recognition results (e.g., words, word strings, or sequence of tokens). In some examples, the speech input can be processed at least partially by a third-party service or on the electronic device (e.g., device 104 or 122) to produce the recognition result. Once STT processing module 430 produces recognition results containing a text string (e.g., words, sequence of words, or sequence of tokens), the recognition result can be passed to natural language processing module 432 for intent deduction.
In some examples, one or more language models of the one or more ASR systems can be configured to be biased toward media-related results. In one example, the one or more language models can be trained using a corpus of media-related text. In another example, the ASR system can be configured to favor media-related recognition results. In some examples, the one or more ASR systems can include static and dynamic language models. Static language models can be trained using general corpuses of text, while dynamic language models can be trained using user-specific text. For example, text corresponding to previous speech input received from users can be used to generate dynamic language models. In some examples, the one or more ASR systems can be configured to generate recognition results that are based on static language models and/or dynamic language models. Further, in some examples, the one or more ASR systems can be configured to favor recognition results that correspond to previous speech input that is more recently received.
Additional details on the speech-to-text processing are described in U.S. Utility application Ser. No. 13/236,942 for “Consolidating Speech Recognition Results,” filed on Sep. 20, 2011, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
In some examples, STT processing module 430 can include and/or access a vocabulary of recognizable words via phonetic alphabet conversion module 431. Each vocabulary word can be associated with one or more candidate pronunciations of the word represented in a speech recognition phonetic alphabet. In particular, the vocabulary of recognizable words can include a word that is associated with a plurality of candidate pronunciations. For example, the vocabulary may include the word “tomato” that is associated with the candidate pronunciations of // and /
/. Further, vocabulary words can be associated with custom candidate pronunciations that are based on previous speech inputs from the user. Such custom candidate pronunciations can be stored in STT processing module 430 and can be associated with a particular user via the user's profile on the device. In some examples, the candidate pronunciations for words can be determined based on the spelling of the word and one or more linguistic and/or phonetic rules. In some examples, the candidate pronunciations can be manually generated, e.g., based on known canonical pronunciations.
In some examples, the candidate pronunciations can be ranked based on the commonness of the candidate pronunciation. For example, the candidate pronunciation // can be ranked higher than /
/, because the former is a more commonly used pronunciation (e.g., among all users, for users in a particular geographical region, or for any other appropriate subset of users). In some examples, candidate pronunciations can be ranked based on whether the candidate pronunciation is a custom candidate pronunciation associated with the user. For example, custom candidate pronunciations can be ranked higher than canonical candidate pronunciations. This can be useful for recognizing proper nouns having a unique pronunciation that deviates from canonical pronunciation. In some examples, candidate pronunciations can be associated with one or more speech characteristics, such as geographic origin, nationality, or ethnicity. For example, the candidate pronunciation /
/ can be associated with the United States, whereas the candidate pronunciation /
/ can be associated with Great Britain. Further, the rank of the candidate pronunciation can be based on one or more characteristics (e.g., geographic origin, nationality, ethnicity, etc.) of the user stored in the user's profile on the device. For example, it can be determined from the user's profile that the user is associated with the United States. Based on the user being associated with the United States, the candidate pronunciation /
/(associated with the United States) can be ranked higher than the candidate pronunciation /
/ (associated with Great Britain). In some examples, one of the ranked candidate pronunciations can be selected as a predicted pronunciation (e.g., the most likely pronunciation).
When a speech input is received, STT processing module 430 can be used to determine the phonemes corresponding to the speech input (e.g., using an acoustic model), and can then attempt to determine words that match the phonemes (e.g., using a language model). For example, if STT processing module 430 can first identify the sequence of phonemes // corresponding to a portion of the speech input, it can then determine, based on vocabulary index 444, that this sequence corresponds to the word “tomato.”
In some examples, STT processing module 430 can use approximate matching techniques to determine words in an utterance. Thus, for example, the STT processing module 430 can determine that the sequence of phonemes // corresponds to the word “tomato,” even if that particular sequence of phonemes is not one of the candidate sequence of phonemes for that word.
Natural language processing module 432 (“natural language processor”) of the digital assistant can take the sequence of words or tokens (“token sequence”) generated by STT processing module 430, and attempt to associate the token sequence with one or more “actionable intents” recognized by the digital assistant. An “actionable intent” can represent a task that can be performed by the digital assistant, and can have an associated task flow implemented in task flow models 454. The associated task flow can be a series of programmed actions and steps that the digital assistant takes in order to perform the task. The scope of a digital assistant's capabilities can be dependent on the number and variety of task flows that have been implemented and stored in task flow models 454, or in other words, on the number and variety of “actionable intents” that the digital assistant recognizes. The effectiveness of the digital assistant, however, can also be dependent on the assistant's ability to infer the correct “actionable intent(s)” from the user request expressed in natural language.
In some examples, in addition to the sequence of words or tokens obtained from STT processing module 430, natural language processing module 432 can also receive contextual information associated with the user request, e.g., from I/O processing module 428. The natural language processing module 432 can optionally use the contextual information to clarify, supplement, and/or further define the information contained in the token sequence received from STT processing module 430. The contextual information can include, for example, user preferences, hardware, and/or software states of the user device, sensor information collected before, during, or shortly after the user request, prior interactions (e.g., dialogue) between the digital assistant and the user, and the like. As described herein, contextual information can be dynamic, and can change with time, location, content of the dialogue, and other factors.
In some examples, the natural language processing can be based on, e.g., ontology 460. Ontology 460 can be a hierarchical structure containing many nodes, each node representing either an “actionable intent” or a “property” relevant to one or more of the “actionable intents” or other “properties.” As noted above, an “actionable intent” can represent a task that the digital assistant is capable of performing, i.e., it is “actionable” or can be acted on. A “property” can represent a parameter associated with an actionable intent or a sub-aspect of another property. A linkage between an actionable intent node and a property node in ontology 460 can define how a parameter represented by the property node pertains to the task represented by the actionable intent node.
In some examples, ontology 460 can be made up of actionable intent nodes and property nodes. Within ontology 460, each actionable intent node can be linked to one or more property nodes either directly or through one or more intermediate property nodes. Similarly, each property node can be linked to one or more actionable intent nodes either directly or through one or more intermediate property nodes. For example, as shown in
In another example, as shown in
An actionable intent node, along with its linked concept nodes, can be described as a “domain.” In the present discussion, each domain can be associated with a respective actionable intent, and can refer to the group of nodes (and the relationships there between) associated with the particular actionable intent. For example, ontology 460 shown in
While
In some examples, ontology 460 can include all the domains (and hence actionable intents) that the digital assistant is capable of understanding and acting upon. In some examples, ontology 460 can be modified, such as by adding or removing entire domains or nodes, or by modifying relationships between the nodes within the ontology 460.
In some examples, each node in ontology 460 can be associated with a set of words and/or phrases that are relevant to the property or actionable intent represented by the node. The respective set of words and/or phrases associated with each node can be the so-called “vocabulary” associated with the node. The respective set of words and/or phrases associated with each node can be stored in vocabulary index 444 in association with the property or actionable intent represented by the node. For example, returning to
Natural language processing module 432 can receive the token sequence (e.g., a text string) from STT processing module 430, and determine what nodes are implicated by the words in the token sequence. In some examples, if a word or phrase in the token sequence is found to be associated with one or more nodes in ontology 460 (via vocabulary index 444), the word or phrase can “trigger” or “activate” those nodes. Based on the quantity and/or relative importance of the activated nodes, natural language processing module 432 can select one of the actionable intents as the task that the user intended the digital assistant to perform. In some examples, the domain that has the most “triggered” nodes can be selected. In some examples, the domain having the highest confidence value (e.g., based on the relative importance of its various triggered nodes) can be selected. In some examples, the domain can be selected based on a combination of the number and the importance of the triggered nodes. In some examples, additional factors are considered in selecting the node as well, such as whether the digital assistant has previously correctly interpreted a similar request from a user.
User data 448 can include user-specific information, such as user-specific vocabulary, user preferences, user address, user's default and secondary languages, user's contact list, and other short-term or long-term information for each user. In some examples, natural language processing module 432 can use the user-specific information to supplement the information contained in the user input to further define the user intent. For example, for a user request “How's the weather this week,” natural language processing module 432 can access user data 448 to determine where the user is located, rather than requiring the user to provide such information explicitly in his/her request.
Other details of searching an ontology based on a token string is described in U.S. Utility application Ser. No. 12/341,743 for “Method and Apparatus for Searching Using An Active Ontology,” filed Dec. 22, 2008, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
In some examples, once natural language processing module 432 identifies an actionable intent (or domain) based on the user request, natural language processing module 432 can generate a structured query to represent the identified actionable intent. In some examples, the structured query can include parameters for one or more nodes within the domain for the actionable intent, and at least some of the parameters are populated with the specific information and requirements specified in the user request. For example, the user may say “Find me other seasons of this TV series.” In this case, natural language processing module 432 can correctly identify the actionable intent to be “media search” based on the user input. According to the ontology, a structured query for a “media” domain may include parameters such as {media actor}, (media genre), {media title}, and the like. In some examples, based on the speech input and the text derived from the speech input using STT processing module 430, natural language processing module 432 can generate a partial structured query for the restaurant reservation domain, where the partial structured query includes the parameters {media genre=“television series” }. However, in this example, the user's utterance contains insufficient information to complete the structured query associated with the domain. Therefore, other necessary parameters such as {media title} may not be specified in the structured query based on the information currently available. In some examples, natural language processing module 432 can populate some parameters of the structured query with received contextual information. For example, the TV series “Mad Men” can be currently playing on the media device. Based on this contextual information, natural language processing module 432 can populate the {media title} parameter in the structured query with “Mad Men.”
In some examples, natural language processing module 432 can pass the generated structured query (including any completed parameters) to task flow processing module 436 (“task flow processor”). Task flow processing module 436 can be configured to receive the structured query from natural language processing module 432, complete the structured query, if necessary, and perform the actions required to “complete” the user's ultimate request. In some examples, the various procedures necessary to complete these tasks can be provided in task flow models 454. In some examples, task flow models 454 can include procedures for obtaining additional information from the user and task flows for performing actions associated with the actionable intent.
As described above, in order to complete a structured query, task flow processing module 436 may need to initiate additional dialogue with the user in order to obtain additional information, and/or disambiguate potentially ambiguous utterances. When such interactions are necessary, task flow processing module 436 can invoke dialogue flow processing module 434 to engage in a dialogue with the user. In some examples, dialogue flow processing module 434 can determine how (and/or when) to ask the user for the additional information and can receive and process the user responses. The questions can be provided to and answers can be received from the users through I/O processing module 428. In some examples, dialogue flow processing module 434 can present dialogue output to the user via audio and/or visual output, and can receive input from the user via spoken or physical (e.g., clicking) responses. For example, the user may ask “What's the weather like in Paris?” When task flow processing module 436 invokes dialogue flow processing module 434 to determine the “location” information for the structured query associated with the domain “weather search,” dialogue flow processing module 434 can generate questions such as “Which Paris?” to pass to the user. Additionally, dialogue flow processing module 434 can cause affordances associated with “Paris, Texas” and “Paris, France” to be presented for user selection. Once a response is received from the user, dialogue flow processing module 434 can then populate the structured query with the missing information, or pass the information to task flow processing module 436 to complete the missing information from the structured query.
Once task flow processing module 436 has completed the structured query for an actionable intent, task flow processing module 436 can proceed to perform the ultimate task associated with the actionable intent. Accordingly, task flow processing module 436 can execute the steps and instructions in task flow model 454 according to the specific parameters contained in the structured query. For example, the task flow model for the actionable intent of “media search” can include steps and instructions for performing a media search query to obtain relevant media items. For example, using a structured query such as: {media search, media genre=TV series, media title=Mad Men}, task flow processing module 436 can perform the steps of: (1) performing a media search query using a media database to obtain relevant media items, (2) ranking the obtained media items according to relevancy and/or popularity, and (3) displaying the media items sorted according to relevancy and/or popularity.
In some examples, task flow processing module 436 can employ the assistance of service processing module 438 (“service processing module”) to complete a task requested in the user input or to provide an informational answer requested in the user input. For example, service processing module 438 can act on behalf of task flow processing module 436 to perform a media search, retrieve weather information, invoke or interact with applications installed on other user devices, and invoke or interact with third-party services (e.g., a social networking website, media review websites, media subscription services, etc.). In some examples, the protocols and API required by each service can be specified by a respective service model among service models 456. Service processing module 438 can access the appropriate service model for a service and generate requests for the service in accordance with the protocols and APIs required by the service according to the service model.
For example, a third-party media search service can submit a service model specifying the necessary parameters for performing a media search and the APIs for communicating the values of the necessary parameters to the media search service. When requested by task flow processing module 436, service processing module 438 can establish a network connection with the media search service and send the necessary parameters of the media search (e.g., media actor, media genre, media title) to the online reservation interface in a format according to the API of the media search service.
In some examples, natural language processing module 432, dialogue flow processing module 434, and task flow processing module 436 can be used collectively and iteratively to infer and define the user's intent, obtain information to further clarify and refine the user intent, and finally generate a response (i.e., an output to the user, or the completion of a task) to fulfill the user's intent. The generated response can be a dialogue response to the speech input that at least partially fulfills the user's intent. Further, in some examples, the generated response can be output as a speech output. In these examples, the generated response can be sent to speech synthesis module 440 (e.g., speech synthesizer) where it can be processed to synthesize the dialogue response in speech form. In yet other examples, the generated response can be data content relevant to satisfying a user request in the speech input.
Speech synthesis module 440 can be configured to synthesize speech outputs for presentation to the user. Speech synthesis module 440 synthesizes speech outputs based on text provided by the digital assistant. For example, the generated dialogue response can be in the form of a text string. Speech synthesis module 440 can convert the text string to an audible speech output. Speech synthesis module 440 can use any appropriate speech synthesis technique in order to generate speech outputs from text, including, but not limited, to concatenative synthesis, unit selection synthesis, diphone synthesis, domain-specific synthesis, formant synthesis, articulatory synthesis, hidden Markov model (HMM) based synthesis, and sinewave synthesis. In some examples, speech synthesis module 440 can be configured to synthesize individual words based on phonemic strings corresponding to the words. For example, a phonemic string can be associated with a word in the generated dialogue response. The phonemic string can be stored in metadata associated with the word. Speech synthesis module 440 can be configured to directly process the phonemic string in the metadata to synthesize the word in speech form.
In some examples, instead of (or in addition to) using speech synthesis module 440, speech synthesis can be performed on a remote device (e.g., the server system 108), and the synthesized speech can be sent to the user device for output to the user. For example, this can occur in some implementations where outputs for a digital assistant are generated at a server system. And because server systems generally have more processing power or resources than a user device, it can be possible to obtain higher quality speech outputs than would be practical with client-side synthesis.
Additional details on digital assistants can be found in the U.S. Utility application Ser. No. 12/987,982, entitled “Intelligent Automated Assistant,” filed Jan. 10, 2011, and U.S. Utility application Ser. No. 13/251,088, entitled “Generating and Processing Task Items That Represent Tasks to Perform,” filed Sep. 30, 2011, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.
4. Process for Interacting with a Digital Assistant in a Media Environment
At block 502 of process 500, content can be displayed on a display unit (e.g., display unit 126). In the present example shown in
At block 504 of process 500, a user input can be detected. The user input can be detected while the content of block 502 is being displayed. In some examples, the user input can be detected on a remote control (e.g., remote control 124) of the media device. In particular, the user input can be a user interaction with the remote control, such as the pressing of a button (e.g., button 274) or the contacting of a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touch-sensitive surface 278) of the remote control. In some examples, the user input can be detected via a second electronic device (e.g., device 122) that is configured to interact with the media device. In response to detecting the user input, one or more of blocks 506-592 can be performed.
At block 506 of process 500, a determination can be made as to whether the user input corresponds to a first input type. The first input type can be a predefined input to the media device. In one example, the first input type can include pressing a particular button of the remote control and releasing the button within a predetermined duration of pressing the button (e.g., a short press). The media device can determine whether the user input matches the first input type. In accordance with a determination that the user input corresponds to a first input type, one or more of blocks 508-514 can be performed.
At block 508 of process 500 and with reference to
At block 510 of process 500 and as shown in
At block 512 of process 500 and with reference to
At block 514 of process 500, one or more exemplary natural language requests can be displayed on the display unit. For example,
The displayed exemplary natural language requests can be contextually-related to the content being displayed (e.g., media content 602). For example, a set of exemplary natural language requests can be stored on the media device or on a separate server. Each exemplary natural language request in the set of exemplary natural language requests can be associated with one or more contextual attributes (e.g., media content being played, home page, iTunes™ media store, actors, movies, weather, sports, stocks, etc.). In some examples, block 514 can include identifying exemplary natural language requests from the set of exemplary natural language requests having contextual attributes corresponding to the displayed content on the display unit. The identified exemplary natural language requests can then be displayed on the display unit. Thus, different exemplary natural language requests can be displayed for different displayed content on the display unit. Displaying contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can serve to conveniently inform the user of the capabilities of the digital assistant that are most relevant to the user's current use condition on the media device. This can improve overall user experience.
In the present example shown in
In examples where the displayed content includes content associated with an application of the media device, contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests to modify one or more settings or states of the application. In particular, the exemplary natural language requests can include a request to open or close the application or to manipulate one or more features of the application.
In some examples, the displayed content can include a user interface for searching, browsing, or selecting items (e.g., second user interface 618 or third user interface 626). In particular, the displayed user interface can include one or more media items. Further, the focus of the user interface can be on a media item of the one or more media items (e.g., media item 623 highlighted by cursor 624 in
In some examples, the displayed content can include media items organized according to a particular category or topic. In these examples, the contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests related to that particular category or topic. For instance, in an example where the displayed content includes media items organized according to various actors, the contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests for information or media items related to actors (e.g., “What movies star Jennifer Lawrence?”, “How old is Scarlett Johansson?”, or “What are Brad Pitt's newest movies?”). In another example where the displayed content includes media items organized according to programming channels or content providers (e.g., channel page or TV guide page), the contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests for information or media items related to the programming channels or content providers (e.g., “What's showing in an hour?”, “What's on HBO during prime time?”, “Tune into ABC.”, or “Which channels are showing basketball?”). In yet another example where the displayed content includes media items that were recently selected by the user (e.g., “recently played” list) or were identified as being of interest to the user (e.g., “watch list”), the contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests to watch or continue watching one of the media items (e.g., “Pick up where I left off.”, “Continue watching Birdman.”, or “Play this again from the beginning.”).
In some examples, the displayed content can include a user interface containing results or information corresponding to a particular topic. In particular, the results can be associated with a previous user request (e.g., a request to the digital assistant) and can include information corresponding to a topic such as weather, stock, or sports. In these examples, the contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests to refine the results or requests for additional information pertaining to the particular topic. For instance, in an example where the displayed content includes weather information for a particular location, the contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests to display additional weather information for another location or for a different time frame (e.g., “How about in New York City?”, “What does it look like for next week?, “And for Hawaii?”, etc.) In another example where the displayed content includes information related to a sports team or athlete, the contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests to provide additional information related to sports team or athletes (e.g., “How tall is Shaquille O'Neal?”, “When was Tom Brady born?”, “When do the 49ers play next?”, “How did Manchester United do in their last game?”, “Who plays point guard for the LA Lakers?”, etc.). In yet another example where the displayed content includes information related to stocks, the contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests for additional stock-related information (e.g., “What's the opening price of S&P 500?”, “How is Apple™ doing?”, “What was the close of the Dow Jones™ yesterday?”, etc.). Further, in some examples, the displayed content can include a user interface containing media search results associated with a previous user request. In these examples, the contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests for refining the displayed media search results (e.g., “Just the ones from last year,” “Only the ones rated G,” “Just the free ones,” etc.) or requests for performing a different media search (e.g., “Find good action movies,” “Show me some Jackie Chan movies,” etc.).
In some examples, the displayed content can include the main menu user interface of the media device. The main menu user interface can be, for example, the home screen or the root directory of the media device. In these examples, the contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests representing the various capabilities of the digital assistant. In particular, the digital assistant can have a set of core competencies associated with the media device and the contextually-related exemplary natural language requests can include requests related to each of the core competencies of the digital assistant (e.g., “Show me good movies that are free,” “What's the weather?,” “Play the next episode of Breaking Bad,” or “What's Apple's™ stock price?”).
The exemplary natural language requests can be in natural language form. This can serve to inform the user that the digital assistant is capable of understanding natural language requests. Further, in some examples, the exemplary natural language requests can be contextually ambiguous to inform the user that the digital assistant is capable of inferring the proper user intent associated with the user's request based on the displayed content. In particular, as shown in the examples described above, the exemplary natural language requests can include contextually ambiguous terms such as “this” or “ones” or contextually ambiguous phrases such as “Just the free ones.” or “What about in New York?” These exemplary natural language requests can inform the user that the digital assistant is capable of determining the proper context associated with such requests based on the displayed content. This encourages the user to rely on the context of the displayed content when interacting with the digital assistant, which can be desirable to promote a more natural interactive experience with the digital assistant.
In some examples, block 514 can be performed after blocks 508-512. In particular, the exemplary natural language requests can be displayed on the display unit at a predetermined amount of time after determining at block 506 that the user input corresponds to a first input type. It should be recognized that in some examples, blocks 508-514 can be performed in any order and that in some examples, two or more of blocks 508-514 can be perform simultaneously.
In some examples, the exemplary natural language requests are displayed in a predetermined sequence and on a rotating basis. Each exemplary natural language request can be displayed separately at different times. In particular, display of a current exemplary natural language request can be replaced with display of a subsequent exemplary natural language request. For example, as shown in
In some examples, the exemplary natural language requests can be grouped into multiple lists where each list includes one or more exemplary natural language requests. In these examples, block 514 can include displaying the lists of exemplary natural language requests on the display unit. Each list can be displayed in a predetermined sequence and at a different time. Further, the lists can be displayed on a rotating basis.
While performing one or more of blocks 508-514, the displayed content can continue to be displayed on the display unit. For example, as shown in
In some examples, as represented by the outlined font of media content 602 in
While performing one of blocks 508-512, the digital assistant can be invoked (e.g., by detecting a user input of a second input type at block 504), and a user utterance corresponding to one of the exemplary natural language requests can be received (e.g., at block 518). The digital assistant can then perform a task in response to the request received (e.g., at block 532). Additional details regarding invoking and interacting with the digital assistant are provided below with reference to
With reference back to block 506, in accordance with a determination that the user input does not correspond to a first input type, one or more of blocks 516-530 of
In accordance with a determination at block 516 that the user input corresponds to a second input type, one or more of blocks 518-530 can be performed. In some examples, media content 602 can continue to play on the media device while performing one or more of blocks 518-530. In particular, media content 602 can continue to play on the media device and be displayed on the display unit while sampling the audio data at block 518 and while performing the task at block 528.
At block 518 of process 500, audio data can be sampled. In particular, a first microphone (e.g., microphone 272) of the media device can be activated to begin sampling audio data. In some examples, the sampled audio data can include a user utterance from the user. The user utterance can represent a user request directed to the digital assistant. Further, in some examples, the user request can be a request to perform a task. In particular, the user request can be a media search request. For example, with reference to
The user utterance in the sampled audio data can be in natural language form. In some examples, the user utterance can represent a user request that is underspecified, where the user utterance does not explicitly define all the information required to satisfy the user request. For example, the user utterance can be “Play the next episode.” In this example, the user request does not explicitly define the media series for which to play the next episode. Further, in some examples, the user utterance can include one or more ambiguous terms.
The duration in which the audio data is sampled can be based on the detection of an end-point. In particular, the audio data can be sampled from a start time at which the user input of the second input type is initially detected to an end time at which the end-point is detected. In some examples, the end-point can be based on the user input. In particular, the first microphone can be activated upon initially detecting the user input of the second input type (e.g., pressing a button for longer than a predetermined duration). The first microphone can remain activated to sample audio data while the user input of the second input type continues to be detected. Upon ceasing to detect the user input of the second input type (e.g., the button is released), the first microphone can be deactivated. Thus, in these examples, the end-point is detected upon detecting the end of the user input. Accordingly, the audio data is sampled while detecting the user input of the second input type.
In other examples, detecting the end-point can be based on one or more audio characteristics of the audio data sampled. In particular, one or more audio characteristics of the audio data sampled can be monitored and an end-point can be detected at a predetermined time after determining that one or more audio characteristics do not satisfy one or more predetermined criteria. In yet other examples, the end-point can be detected based on a fixed duration. In particular, the end-point can be detected at a predetermined duration after initially detecting the user input of the second input type.
In some examples, audio associated with the displayed content can be outputted (e.g., using speakers 268) while blocks 504 or 516 are performed. In particular, the audio can be the audio of a media item playing on the media device and displayed on the display unit. The audio can be outputted via an audio signal from the media device. In these examples, the audio associated with the displayed content can be ducked (e.g., the amplitude of the audio reduced) upon determining that the user input corresponds to a second input type and upon sampling the audio data. For example, the audio can be ducked by reducing the gain associated with the audio signal. In other examples, output of the audio associated with the media content can be ceased while sampling the audio data at block 518. For example, the audio can be ceased by blocking or interrupting the audio signal. Ducking or ceasing the output of audio can be desirable to reduce the background noise in the sampled audio data and to increase the relative strength of the speech signal associated with a user utterance. Further, the ducking or ceasing of the audio can serve as an audio cue for the user to begin providing speech input to the digital assistant.
In some examples, background audio data can be sampled while sampling the audio data to perform noise cancellation. In these examples, the remote control or the media device can include a second microphone. The second microphone can be oriented in a direction that is different from the first microphone (e.g., opposite to the first microphone). The second microphone can be activated to sample the background audio data while the audio data is being sampled. In some examples, the background audio data can be used to remove background noise in the audio data. In other examples, the media device can generate an audio signal for outputting audio associated with the displayed content. The generated audio signal can be used to remove background noise from the audio data. Performing noise cancellation of background noise from the audio signal can be particularly suitable for interactions with a digital assistant in media environment. This can be due to the communal nature of consuming media content where utterances from multiple individuals may be commingled in the audio data. By removing the background noise in the audio data, a higher signal to noise ratio in the audio data can be obtained, which can be desirable when processing the audio data for a user request.
At block 520 of process 500 and with reference to
At block 522 of process 500, a text representation of the user utterance in the sampled audio data can be determined. For example, the text representation can be determined by performing speech-to-text (STT) processing on the sampled audio data. In particular, the sampled audio data can be processed using a STT processing module (e.g., STT processing module 430) to convert the user utterance in the sampled audio data into the text representation. The text representation can be a token string representing a corresponding text string.
In some examples, the STT processing can be biased toward media-related text results. The biasing can be implemented by utilizing a language model that is trained using a corpus of media-related text. Additionally or alternatively, the biasing can be implemented by more heavily weighting candidate text results that are related to media. In this way, candidate text results that are related to media can be ranked higher with the biasing than without the biasing. The biasing can be desirable for increasing the accuracy of STT processing of media-related user utterances (e.g., movie names, movie actors, etc.). For example, certain media-related words or phrases, such as “Jurassic Park,” “Arnold Schwarzenegger,” and “Shrek,” can be infrequently found in typical corpuses of text and thus may not successfully be recognized during STT processing without biasing toward media-related text results.
In some examples, the text representation can be obtained from a separate device (e.g., DA server 106). In particular, the sampled audio data can be transmitted from the media device to the separate device to perform STT processing. In these examples, the media device can indicate to the separate device (e.g., via data transmitted to the separate device with the sampled audio data) that the sampled audio data is associated with a media application. The indicating can bias the STT processing toward media-related text results.
In some examples, the text representation can be based on previous user utterances that were received by the media device prior to sampling the audio data. In particular, candidate text results of the sampled audio data that correspond to one or more portions of previous user utterances can be more heavily weighted. In some examples, the previous user utterances can be used to generate a language model and the generated language model can be used to determine the text representation of the current user utterance in the sampled audio data. The language model can be dynamically updated as additional user utterances are received and processed.
Further, in some examples, the text representation can be based on a time at which the previous user utterances were received prior to sampling the audio data. In particular, candidate text results that correspond to previous user utterances that are more recently received with respect to the sampled audio data can be more heavily weighted than candidate text results that correspond to previous user utterances that are less recently received with respect to the sampled audio data.
At block 524 of process 500, the text representation can be displayed on the display unit. For example,
At block 526 of process 500, a user intent corresponding to the user utterance can be determined. The user intent can be determined by performing natural language processing on the text representation of block 522. In particular, the text representation can be processed using a natural language processing module (e.g., natural language processing module 432) to derive the user intent. For example, with reference to
In some examples, natural language processing for determining the user intent can be biased toward media-related user intents. In particular, the natural language processing module can be trained to identify media-related words and phrases (e.g., media titles, media genres, actors, MPAA film-rating labels, etc.) that trigger media-related nodes in the ontology. For example, the natural language processing module can identify the phrase “Jurassic Park” in the text representation as a movie title and as a result, trigger a “media search” node in the ontology associated with the actionable intent of searching for media items. In some examples, the biasing can be implemented by restricting the nodes in the ontology to a predetermined set of media-related nodes. For example, the set of media-related nodes can be nodes that are associated with the applications of the media device. Further, in some examples, the biasing can be implemented by weighting candidate user intents that are media-related more heavily than candidate user intents that are not media-related.
In some examples, the user intent can be obtained from a separate device (e.g., DA server 106). In particular, the audio data can be transmitted to the separate device to perform natural language processing. In these examples, the media device can indicate to the separate device (e.g., via data transmitted to the separate device with the sampled audio data) that the sampled audio data is associated with a media application. The indicating can bias the natural language processing toward media-related user intents.
At block 528 of process 500, a determination can be made as to whether the sampled audio data contains a user request. The determination can be made from the determined user intent of block 526. The sampled audio data can be determined to contain a user request if the user intent includes a user request to perform a task. Conversely, the sampled audio data can be determined not to contain a user request if the user intent does not include a user request to perform a task. Further, in some examples, the sampled audio data can be determined not to contain a user request if a user intent is unable to be determined from the text representation at block 526 or a text representation is unable to be determined from the sampled audio data at block 522. In accordance with a determination that the audio data does not contain a user request, block 530 can be performed.
At block 530 of process 500, a request for clarification of the user's intent can be displayed on the display unit. In one example, the request for clarification can be a request for the user to repeat the user request. In another example, the request for clarification can be a statement that the digital assistant was unable to understand the user's utterance. In yet another example, an error message can be displayed to indicate that the user's intent could not be determined. Further, in some examples, no response may be provided in accordance with a determination that the audio data does not contain a user request.
With reference to
In other examples, the task can include retrieving and displaying requested information. In particular, performing the task at block 532 can include performing one or more of blocks 534-536. At block 534 of process 500, results that at least partially satisfy the user request can be obtained. The results can be obtained from an external service (e.g., external services 120). In one example, the user request can be a request to perform a media search query, such as “Find romantic comedies starring Reese Witherspoon.” In this example, block 534 can include performing the requested media search (e.g., using a media-related database of an external service) to obtain media items having the genre of romantic comedy and the actor of Reese Witherspoon. In other examples, the user request can include requests for other types of information such as weather, sports, and stocks, and the respective information can be obtained at block 534.
At block 536 of process 500, a second user interface can be displayed on the display unit. The second user interface can include a portion of the results obtained at block 534. For example, as shown in
Second user interface 618 can further include cursor 624 for navigating and selecting media items 622 in second user interface 618. The position of the cursor can be indicated by visually highlighting, relative to the other media items, the media item on which the cursor is positioned. For example, in the present example, media item 623 over which cursor 624 is positioned can be larger and more boldly outlined compared to the other media items displayed in second user interface 618.
In some examples, at least a portion of the displayed content can continue to be displayed while the second user interface is displayed. For example, as shown in
In examples where media items obtained from a media search are displayed on the second user interface, the number of displayed media items can be limited. This can be desirable to allow the user to focus on the most relevant results and prevent the user from becoming overwhelmed by the number of results when making a selection. In these examples, block 532 can further include determining whether the number of media items in the obtained results is less than or equal to a predetermined number (e.g., 30, 28, or 25). In accordance with a determination that the number of media items in the obtained results is less than or equal to a predetermined number, all of the media items in the obtained results can be included in the second user interface. In accordance with a determination that the number of media items in the obtained results is greater than a predetermined number, only the predetermined number of media items in the obtained results can be included in the second user interface.
Further, in some examples, only the media items in the obtained results that are most relevant to the media search request can be displayed in the second user interface. In particular, each of the media items in the obtained results can be associated with a relevancy score with respect to the media search request. The media items that are displayed can have the highest relevancy scores among the obtained results. Further, the media items in the second user interface can be arranged according to the relevancy scores. For example, with reference to
As indicated by the different flows (e.g., D, E, F, and G) succeeding block 532 in
At block 538 of process 500 and with reference to
At block 540 of process 500, the second user interface can be dismissed such that the second user interface is no longer displayed. For example, with reference to
At block 542 of process 500 and with reference to
At block 544 of process 500, second results can be obtained. The obtained second results can be similar, but not identical to the results obtained at block 534. In some examples, the obtained second results can at least partially satisfy the user request. For example, the obtained second results can share one or more properties, parameters, or attributes of the results obtained at block 534. In the example shown in
In some examples, the obtained second results can be based on a previous user request received prior to detecting the user input at block 504. In particular, the obtained second results can include one or more characteristics or parameters of the previous user request. For example, the previous user request can be “Show me movies released in the last 5 years.” In this example, the obtained second results can include media items that are romantic comedies movies starring Reese Witherspoon and released in the last 5 years.
Further, in some examples, block 544 can include obtaining second results that are contextually-related to an item on which the second user interface is focused at the time the third user input is detected. For example, with reference to
At block 546 of process 500, the third user interface can be displayed on the display unit. In particular, display of the second user interface at block 536 can be replaced with the display of the third user interface at block 546. In some examples, in response to detecting the third user input, the second user interface can be expanded to become the third user interface. The third user interface can occupy at least a majority of a display area of the display unit. The third user interface can include a portion of the obtained results of block 534. Further, the third user interface can include a portion of the obtained second results of block 544.
In one example, as shown in
Third user interface 626 can include media items 622 that satisfy the user request of “Find me romantic comedies starring Reese Witherspoon.” Further, third user interface 626 can include media items 632 that at least partially satisfiy the same user request. Media items 632 can include multiple sets of media items that each correspond to different characteristics, attributes, or parameters. In this example, media items 632 can include media items 634 that are romantic comedies and media items 636 that star Reese Witherspoon. Each set of media items can be labeled with a text header (e.g., text header 628, 630). The text headers can describe the one or more attributes or parameters associated with the respective set of media items. Further, the text headers can each be an exemplary user utterance, which when provided by the user to the digital assistant, can cause the digital assistant to obtain a similar set of media items. For example, with reference to text header 628, the digital assistant can obtain and display media items that are romantic comedies (e.g., media items 634) in response to receiving the user utterance “Romantic comedies” from the user.
Although in the example shown in
In examples where the user request is a media search request, the obtained second results can be based on the number of media items in the obtained results of block 534. In particular, in response to detecting the third user input, a determination can be made as to whether the number of media items in the obtained results is less than or equal to a predetermined number. In accordance with a determination that the number of media items in the obtained result is less than or equal to a predetermined number, the obtained second results can include media items that are different from the media items in the second user interface. The obtained second results can at least partially satisfy the media search request performed at block 534. At the same time, the obtained second results can be broader than the obtained results and can be associated with fewer than all of the parameters defined in the media search request performed at block 534. This can be desirable to provide the user with a broader set of results and greater options to select from.
In some examples, in accordance with a determination that the number of media items in the obtained result of block 534 is less than or equal to a predetermined number, a determination can be made as to whether the media search request includes more than one search attribute or parameter. In accordance with a determination that the media search request includes more than one search attribute or parameter, the obtained second results can include media items associated with the more than one search attribute or parameter. Further, the media items in the obtained second result can be organized in the third user interface according to the more than one search attribute or parameter.
In the example shown in
In some examples, in accordance with a determination that the number of media items in the obtained results of block 534 is greater than a predetermined number, the third user interface can include a first portion and a second portion of the obtained results. The first portion of the obtained results can include the predetermined number of media items (e.g., with the highest relevancy scores). The second portion of the obtained results can be different from the first portion of the obtained results and can include a greater number of media items than the first portion of the obtained results. Further, it can be determined whether the media items in the obtained results include more than one media type (e.g., movies, television shows, music, applications, games, etc.). In response to determining that the media items in the obtained results include more than one media type, the media items in the second portion of the obtained results can be organized according to media type.
In the example shown in
In some examples, a user input representing a scroll command (e.g., fourth user input described below at block 550) can be detected. In response to receiving the user input representing a scroll command, the expanded user interface (or more specifically, the items in the expanded user interface) can be caused to scroll. While scrolling, a determination can be made as to whether the expanded user interface has scrolled beyond a predetermined position in the expanded user interface. In response to a determination that the expanded user interface has scrolled beyond a predetermined position in the expanded user interface, media items in a third portion of the obtained results can be displayed on the expanded user interface. The media items in the third portion can be organized according to one or more media content providers (e.g., iTunes™, Netflix™, HuluPlus™, HBO, etc.) associated with the media items in the third portion. It should be recognized that in other examples, other media items can be obtained in response to a determination that the expanded user interface has scrolled beyond a predetermined position in the expanded user interface. For example, popular media items or media items related to the obtained results can be obtained.
As indicated by the different flows (e.g., B, F, G, and H) proceeding from block 546 in
At block 550 of process 500 and with reference to
At block 552 of process 500, a focus of the second user interface or the third user interface can be switched from a first item to a second item on the second user interface or the third user interface. The second item can be being positioned in the direction (e.g., the same direction corresponding to the fourth user input) relative to the first item. For example, in
At block 554 of process 500, a selection of a media item of one or more media items can be received via the second user interface or the third user interface. For example, with reference to
At block 556 of process 500, media content associated with the selected media item can be displayed on the display unit. In some examples, the media content can be movies, videos, television shows, animations, or the like that are playing on or streaming through the media device. In some examples, the media content can be video games, electronic books, applications, or programs running on the media device. Further, in some examples, the media content can be information related to the media item. The information can be product information that describes the various characteristics (e.g., plot summary, cast, director, author, release date, rating, duration, etc.) of the selected media item.
At block 558 of process 500 and with reference to
At block 560 of process 500, a search field configured to receive typed search inputs can be displayed. For example, as shown in
At block 562 of process 500, a virtual keyboard interface can be displayed on the display unit. For example, as shown in
At block 564 of process 500, a focus of the user interface can be switched to the search field. For example, with reference to
At block 566 of process 500 and with reference to
At block 568 of process 500, the third user interface can cease to be displayed on the display unit. In particular, the seventh user input can cause the third user interface to be dismissed. In some examples, the seventh user input can cause a main menu user interface menu to be displayed in lieu of the third user interface. Alternatively, in examples where media content (e.g., media content 602) was displayed prior to displaying the third user interface (e.g., third user interface 626) and the playing of the media content on the electronic device was paused upon displaying the third user interface (e.g., paused in response to detecting the third user input), the playing of the media content on the electronic device can be resumed in response to detecting the seventh user input. Accordingly, the media content can be displayed in response to detecting the seventh user input.
At block 570 of process 500 and with reference to
At block 572 of process 500, second audio data can be sampled. Block 572 can be similar or identical to block 518, described above. In particular, the sampled second audio data can include a second user utterance from the user. The second user utterance can represent a second user request directed to the digital assistant. In some examples, the second user request can be a request to perform a second task. For example, with reference to
It should be recognized that, in some examples, blocks 520-526, described above, can be similarly performed with respect to the sixth user input. In particular, as shown in
At block 574 of process 500, a determination can be made as to whether the sampled second audio data contains a second user request. Block 574 can be similar or identical to block 528, described above. In particular, the determination at block 574 can be made based on the second user intent determined from the second text representation of the second user utterance. In accordance with a determination that the second audio data does not contain a user request, block 576 can be performed. Alternatively, in accordance with a determination that the second audio data contains a second user request, one or more of blocks 578-592 can be performed.
At block 576 of process 500, a request for clarification of the user's intent can be displayed on the display unit. Block 576 can be similar or identical to block 530, described above.
At block 578 of process 500, a determination can be made as to whether the second user request is a request to refine the results of the user request. In some examples, the determination can be made from the second user intent corresponding to the second user utterance. In particular, the second user request can be determined to be a request to refine the results of the user request based on an expressed indication identified in the second user utterance to refine the results of the user request. For example, with reference to
At block 580 of process 500, a subset of the results that at least partially satisfy the user request can be obtained. In some examples, the subset of the results can be obtained by filtering the existing results in accordance with the additional parameters defined in the second user request. For example, the obtained results at block 534 (e.g., including media items 622) can be filtered such that media items with Luke Wilson as an actor are identified. In other examples, a new media search query that combines the requirements of the user request and the second user request can be performed. For example, the new media search query can be a search query for media items having the genre of romantic comedy and the actors of Reese Witherspoon and Luke Wilson. In this example, the new media search query can yield media items such as “Legally Blonde,” and “Legally Blonde 2.”
In examples where the sixth user input is detected while displaying the third user interface, additional results related to the user request and/or the second user request can be obtained. The additional results can include media items having one or more attributes or parameters described in the user request and/or the second user request. Further, the additional result may not include all the attributes or parameters described in the user request and the second user request. For example, with reference to the example depicted in
At block 582, the subset of the results can be displayed on the display unit. For example, as shown in
In examples where the sixth user input is detected while displaying the third user interface, additional results related to the user request and/or the second user request can be displayed in the third user interface. For example, with reference to
With reference back to block 578, it can be determined that the second user request is not a request to refine the results of the user request. Such a determination can be made based on an absence of any explicit indication in the second user utterance to refine the results of the user request. For example, when parsing the second text representation of the second user utterance during natural language processing, no predetermined word or phrase corresponding to an explicit intent to refine the media search results may be identified. This can be due to the second user request being a request that is unrelated to the previous user request (e.g., a new request). For example, the second user request can be “Find me horror movies,” which is a request that is unrelated to the previous user request of “Find me romantic comedies starring Reese Witherspoon.” Alternatively, the second user request can include ambiguous language, which can be interpreted as either a request to refine the results of the previous user request or a new request that is unrelated to the previous user request. For example, with reference to
At block 584 of process 500, a second task that at least partially satisfies the second user request can be performed. Block 584 can be similar to block 532, described above, except that the second task of block 584 may differ from the task of block 532. Block 584 can include one or more of blocks 586-588.
At block 586 of process 500, third results can be obtained that at least partially satisfy the second user request. Block 586 can be similar to block 534, described above. With reference to the example depicted in
At block 588 of process 500, a portion of the third results can be displayed on the display unit. For example, with reference to
At block 590 of process 500, fourth results that at least partially satisfy the user request and/or the second user request can be obtained. In particular, the fourth results can include media items having one or more attributes or parameters defined in the user request and/or the second user request. With reference to the example depicted in
In some examples, at least a portion of the fourth results can include media items having all the parameters defined in the user request and the second user request. For example, fourth results can include media items 674 having the genre of romantic comedy and starring Reese Witherspoon and Luke Wilson. Media items 674 can be associated with the alternative intent of refining the results of the previous user request using the second user request. In cases where the user actually intended the second request to be a request to refine the obtain results, obtaining media items 674 can be desirable to increase the likelihood that the user's actual intent is satisfied.
In some examples, a portion of the fourth results can be based on a focus of the user interface at the time the sixth user input is detected. In particular, a focus of the user interface can be on one or more items of the third user interface when the sixth user input is detected. In this example, a portion of the fourth results can be contextually-related to the one or more items on which the user interface is focused. For example, with reference to
At block 592 of process 500, a portion of the fourth results can be displayed. In examples where the sixth user input is detected while displaying the third user interface, the portion of the fourth results can be displayed in the third user interface. For example, as shown in
As described above, the second user utterance of “Luke Wilson” can be associated with two likely user intents: a first user intent of performing a new media search or a second user intent of refining the results of the previous user request. Displayed media items 670 can satisfy the first user intent and displayed media items 674 can satisfy the second user intent. In this example, media items 670 and 674 are displayed in the top two rows. In this way, results for the two most likely user intents associated with the second user request (e.g., new search or a refinement of the previous search) can be displayed prominently (e.g., top two rows) in third user interface 626. This can be desirable to minimize scrolling or browsing by the user in the third user interface prior to find a desired media item to consume. It should be recognized that the manner of displaying media items 670 and 674 prominently in third user interface 626 to minimize scrolling and browsing can vary.
At block 702 of process 700, content can be displayed on a display unit (e.g., display unit 126). Block 702 can be similar or identical to block 502, described above. With reference to
At block 704 of process 700, a user input can be detected. Block 704 can be similar or identical to block 504, described above. The user input can be used to invoke a digital assistant of the media device. In some examples, the user input can be detected while the content of block 702 is being displayed. The user input can be detected on a remote control (e.g., remote control 124) of the media device. For example, the user input can correspond to the second input type described in block 516 of process 500. In particular, the user input of block 704 can include pressing a particular button on the remote control of the media device and holding down the button for greater than a predetermined duration (e.g., a long press). In response to detecting the user input, one or more of blocks 706-746 can be performed.
At block 706 of process 700, audio data can be sampled. Block 706 can be similar or identical to block 518, described above. The sampled audio data can include a user utterance. The user utterance can represent a user request directed to the digital assistant of the media device. For example, with reference to the example illustrated in
At block 708 of process 700, a text representation of the user utterance in the sampled audio data can be determined. Block 708 can be similar or identical to block 522, described above. In particular, the text representation can be determined by performing STT processing on the user utterance in the sampled audio data. For example, with reference to
In some examples, the STT processing used to determine the text representation can be biased toward media-related text results. Additionally or alternatively, the text representation can be based on previous user utterances that were received by the media device prior to sampling the audio data. Further, in some examples, the text representation can be based on a time at which the previous user utterances were received prior to sampling the audio data. In examples where the text representation is obtained from a separate device (e.g., DA server 106), the media device can indicate to the separate device that the sampled audio data is associated with a media application and the indicating can bias the STT processing on the separate device toward media-related text results.
At block 710 of process 700, a user intent corresponding to the user utterance can be determined. Block 710 can be similar to block 526, described above. In particular, the text representation of block 708 can be processed using natural language processing (e.g., with natural language processing module 432) to derive the user intent. For example, with reference to
In some examples, the user intent can be determined based on prosody information derived from the user utterance in the sampled audio data. In particular, prosody information (e.g., tonality, rhythm, volume, stress, intonation, speed, etc.) can be derived from the user utterance to determine the attitude, mood, emotion, or sentiment of the user. The user intent can then be determined from the attitude, mood, emotion, or sentiment of the user. For example, the sampled audio data can include the user utterance “What did he say?” In this example, it can be determined that the user is impatient or frustrated based on the high volume and stress detected in the user utterance. Based on the user utterance and the determined user sentiment, it can be determined that the user intent includes a request to increase the volume of the audio associated with the media content being played on the media device.
As shown in
At block 712 of process 700, a determination can be made as to whether the user utterance (or the text representation of the user utterance) includes an ambiguous term. The determination can be made during natural language processing (e.g., using natural language processing module 432) to determine the user intent. An ambiguous term can be a word or phrase that has more than one possible interpretation. For example, with reference to
In some examples, contextual information can be retrieved (e.g., by the digital assistant) to disambiguate potentially ambiguous terms. If disambiguation is successful, it can be determined that the user utterance does not include an ambiguous term. For example, it can be determined that media content 802 is a movie with Paris, France as its setting (e.g., “Ratatouille”) and thus the user is more likely referring to Paris, France than Paris, Texas In this example, the term “Paris” can be successfully disambiguated to refer to Paris, France and thus it can be determined that the user utterance does not include an ambiguous term.
In another example, the user utterance can be “Play this.” In this example, the user utterance does not explicitly define the particular media item to be played and thus the term “this,” interpreted in isolation, can be an ambiguous term that could refer to any media item accessible to the media device. The term can be disambiguated using contextual information displayed by the media device on the display unit. For example, the digital assistant can determine whether a focus of a displayed user interface is on a media item. In accordance with a determination that a focus of the user interface is on a media item, the digital assistant can disambiguate the term “this” and determine that the term refers to the media item on which the displayed user interface is focused. Based on this determination, it can be determined at block 712 that the user utterance does not include an ambiguous term. The user intent can thus be determined to be a request to play the media item on which the displayed user interface is focused.
In examples where a term cannot be disambiguated, a determination can be made at block 712 that the user utterance contains an ambiguous term. In response to determining that the user utterance includes an ambiguous term, one or more of blocks 714-718 can be performed. At block 714 of process 700, two or more candidate user intents can be obtained based on the ambiguous term. The two or more candidate user intents can be the most likely candidate user intents determined from the user utterance that cannot be disambiguated. With reference to the example depicted in
At block 716 of process 700, the two or more candidate user intents can be displayed on the display unit for user selection. For example, with reference to
At block 718 of process 700, a user selection of one of the two or more candidate user intents can be received. In some examples, the user selection can be received via selection of an affordance corresponding to one of the candidate user intents. In particular, as shown in
In other examples, the user selection can be received via voice interaction with the digital assistant. For example, while displaying the two or more candidate user intents, a second user input can be detected. The second user input can be similar or identical to the user input of block 704. In particular, the second user input can be an input to invoke the digital assistant (e.g., pressing a particular button on the remote control of the media device and holding down the button for greater than a predetermined duration). In response to detecting the second user input, second audio data can be sampled. The second audio data can include a second user utterance representing a user selection of one of the two or more interpretations. For example, with reference to
In some examples, blocks 710-718 can be performed without outputting speech from the media device. In particular, text prompt 806 and candidate user intents 808, 810 can be displayed without outputting speech associated with the two or more candidate user intents 808, 810. Thus, input from the user can be received in the form of speech, but output from the digital assistant can be presented visually (and not in the form of audio) to the user on the display unit. This can be desirable to preserve the communal experience associated with consuming media content, which can improve user experience of the media device.
With reference back to block 712, in response to determining that the user utterance does not include an ambiguous term, one or more of blocks 720-746 can be performed. At block 720 of process 700, a determination can be made as to whether the user intent corresponds to one of a plurality of core competencies associated with the media device. For example, the media device can be associated with several predetermined core competencies, such as, for example, searching for media items, playing media items, and providing information related to media items, weather, stocks, and sports. If the user intent involves performing a task related to one of the several predetermined core competencies, the user intent can be determined to correspond to one of the several predetermined core competencies. For example, if the user intent is a request for media items starring Reese Witherspoon, the user intent can be determined to correspond to one of the several predetermined core competencies. In response to determining that the user intent corresponds to one of a plurality of core competencies associated with the electronic device, one or more of blocks 724-746 can be performed.
Conversely, if the user intent involves performing a task outside of the several predetermined core competencies, the user intent can be determined not to correspond to one of the several predetermined core competencies. For example, if the user intent is a request for map directions, the user intent can be determined not to correspond to one of the several predetermined core competencies. In response to determining that the user intent does not correspond to one of a plurality of core competencies associated with the electronic device, block 722 can be performed.
At block 722 of process 700, a second electronic device (e.g., device 122) can be caused to at least partially satisfy the user intent. In particular, the second electronic device can be caused to perform a task in furtherance of satisfying the user intent. In one example, it can be determined that the media device is not configured to satisfy the user intent of requesting for map directions and thus the user intent can be transmitted to the second electronic device to satisfy the user intent. In this example, the second user device can perform the task of displaying the requested map directions. In other examples, information other than the user intent can be transmitted to the second electronic device to cause the second electronic device to perform a task in furtherance of satisfying the user intent. For example, the digital assistant of the media device can determine the task flow or structured query for satisfying the user intent (e.g., using natural language processing module 432 or task flow processing module 436) and the task flow or structured query can be transmitted to the second electronic device. The second electronic device can then execute the task flow or structured query in furtherance of satisfying the user intent.
As will become apparent in the description provided below, the level of intrusiveness associated with satisfying the user intent can be based on the nature of the user intent. In some cases, a task associated with satisfying the user intent can be performed without displaying any additional response or output on the display (e.g., block 726). In other cases, only a text response (e.g., with no corresponding visual or audio output) is provided to satisfy the user intent (e.g., block 732). In yet other cases, a user interface with relevant results can be displayed to satisfy the user intent (e.g., blocks 738, 742, or 746). The user interface can occupy a majority or less than a majority of the display unit. Accordingly, process 700 can intelligently adjust the level of intrusiveness of the output depending on the nature of the user intent. This enables convenient access to the services of the digital assistant while reducing undesirable disruption during consumption of media content, which improves overall user experience.
At block 724 of process 700, a determination can be made as to whether the user intent comprises a request to adjust a state or a setting of an application on the media device. In response to determining that the user intent comprises a request to adjusting a state or a setting of an application on the media device, block 726 can be performed. At block 726 of process 700, the state or the setting of the application can be adjusted to satisfy the user intent.
In some examples, the state or setting can be associated with the displayed media content being played on the media device. For example, a request to adjust a state or a setting of an application can include a request to control the playing of media content by the media device. In particular, it can include a request to pause, resume, restart, stop, rewind, or fast-forward playing of the displayed media content on the media device. It can also include a request to skip forward or backward in the media content (e.g., by a specified duration) in order to play a desired portion of the media content. Further, a request to adjust a state or a setting of an application can include a request to turn on/off subtitles or closed captioning (e.g., in a specified language) associated with the displayed media content, increase/decrease the volume of the audio associated with the displayed media content, mute/unmute the audio associated with the displayed media content, or speed-up/slow-down the rate at which the displayed media content is played.
In another illustrative example depicted in
It should be appreciated that closed captioning or subtitles associated with media content can be obtained from the service provider (e.g., cable provider or media subscription service). However, in examples where closed captioning or subtitles are not available from the service provider, the media device can generate closed captioning or subtitles to assist with difficulties hearing the audio associated with the media content. For example, prior to receiving the user utterance in the sampled audio data and while the media content is playing, speech in the audio associated with the media content can be continuously converted to text (e.g., using STT processing module 730) and stored in association with the media content. In response to a user request to replay a previous portion of the media content that the user did not hear, text corresponding to the previous portion being replayed can be retrieved and displayed while replaying the previous portion of the media content.
In some examples, the state or setting associated with the displayed media content can be adjusted without displaying additional user interfaces for performing the adjustment or without providing any text or graphics representing a confirmation that the state or setting is being adjusted. For example, in the depicted examples of
In other examples, a request to adjust a state or a setting of an application on the media device can include a request to navigate through a user interface (e.g., second user interface 818, third user interface 826, or a main menu user interface) of the media device. In one example, a request to navigate through a user interface can include a request to switch a focus of the user interface from a first object (e.g., a first media item) to a second object in the user interface (e.g., a second media item).
In another example, a request to navigate through a user interface can include a request to change the focus of the user interface to a particular category of results displayed in the user interface. For example,
In yet other examples, a request to navigate through a user interface of the media device can include a request to select an object in the user interface. The selection of the object can cause an action associated with the object to be performed. For example, as shown in
In yet other examples, a request to navigate through a user interface of the media device can include a request to view a specific user interface or application of the media device. For instance, the user utterance in the sampled audio data can be, “Go to Actor page,” where the user intent comprises a request to display the user interface associated with browsing for media items according to a particular actor. In another example, the user utterance in the sampled audio data can be, “Take me to the home page,” where the user intent comprises a request to display the main menu user interface of the media device. In yet another example, a request to navigate through a user interface of the media device can include a request to launch the application on the electronic device. For instance, the user utterance in the sampled audio data can be “Go to the iTunes™ Store,” where the user intent comprises a request to launch the iTunes™ Store application. It should be recognized that other requests to adjust a state or a setting of an application on the media device can be contemplated.
With reference back to block 724, it can be determined that the user intent does not comprise a request to adjust a state or a setting of an application on the electronic device. For example, the user intent can instead be a request to present information related to one or more media items. In response to such a determination, one or more of blocks 728-746 can be performed. At block 728 of process 700, a determination can be made as to whether the user intent is one of a plurality of predetermined request types. In some examples, the plurality of predetermined request types can be requests associated with a text-only response. More specifically, the plurality of predetermined request types can be requests for information which are predetermined to require a text-only response. This is in contrast to requests that are predetermined to require a response comprising media objects (e.g., images, animated objects, videos, etc.). In some examples, the plurality of predetermined request types can include requests for the current time at a particular location (e.g., “What's the time in Paris?”), requests to present a joke (e.g., “Tell me a good joke.”), or requests for information regarding media content currently being played on the electronic device (e.g., “When was this movie released?”). In response to determining that the user intent is one of a plurality of predetermined request types, one or more of blocks 730-732 can be performed.
At block 730 of process 700, results that at least partially satisfy the user intent can be obtained. For example, the results can be obtained from external services (e.g., external services 120) by executing a task flow. At block 732 of process 700, the results obtained at block 730 can be displayed on the display unit in text form. Further, the results can be displayed in text form without displaying any corresponding graphics or media-related items corresponding to the results.
With reference back to block 728, it can be determined that the user intent is not one of a plurality of predetermined request type. In particular, the user intent can be a request type that is predetermined to require more than text results to satisfy. For example, the user intent can be a request to perform a media search query and display media items corresponding to the media search query. In other examples, the user intent can be a request for information other than media items. For example, the user intent can be a request for information associated with sports teams (e.g., “How did the L. A. Lakers do in their last game?”), athletes (e.g., “How tall is LeBron James?”), stocks (e.g., “Where did the Dow Jones™ close at yesterday?”), or the weather (e.g., “What's the weather forecast in Paris, France for the next week?”). In response to determining that the user intent is not one of a plurality of predetermined request type, one or more of blocks 734-746 can be performed.
At block 734 of process 700, second results that at least partially satisfy the user intent can be obtained. Block 734 can be similar or identical to block 534, described above. In one example, the user intent can include a request to perform a media search query. In this example, the media search query can be performed at block 734 to obtain second results. Specifically, the second results can comprise media items corresponding to the media search query.
In some examples, the user intent may not be a media search query. For example, the user intent can be a request to provide the weather forecast in Paris, France (e.g., “What's the weather forecast in Paris, France?”). In this example, second results obtained at block 734 can include the 7-day weather forecast in Paris, France. The second results can include non-media data that at least partially satisfies the user intent. In particular, the 7-day weather forecast in Paris, France can include text data (e.g., dates, temperatures, and brief description of the weather condition) and graphical images (e.g., sunny, cloudy, windy, or rainy images). Further, in some examples, the scope of the user intent can be expanded at block 710 to include a request for media items that at least partially satisfy the user intent. In these examples, the second results obtained at block 734 can further include one or more media items having media content that at least partially satisfies the user intent. For example, a media search query can be performed at block 734 for the weather forecast in Paris, France during the relevant time period and one or more media items related to the weather forecast in Paris, France can be obtained. The one or more media items can include, for example, video clips from the weather channel presenting the weather forecast in Paris, France. In these examples, the non-media data and/or the one or more media items can be displayed in a user interface on the displayed unit (e.g., at blocks 738, 742, or 746, described below).
At block 736 of process 700, a determination can be made as to whether the displayed content includes media content playing on the electronic device. In some examples, it can be determined that the displayed content does not comprise media content playing on the electronic device. For example, the displayed content can instead include a user interface, such as a main menu user interface or a third user interface (e.g., third user interface 826). The third user interface can occupy at least a majority of the display area of the display unit. Further, the third user interface can include previous results related to a previous user request that was received prior to detecting the user input at block 704. In accordance with the determination that the displayed content does not comprise media content, block 738 can be performed.
At block 738 of process 700, a portion of the second results can be displayed in the third user interface on the display unit. In examples where the displayed content already includes the third user interface at the time the user input at block 704 is received, display of the previous results related to the previous user request can be replaced with display of a portion of the second results in the third user interface. In examples where the displayed content does not include the third user interface at the time the user input at block 704 is received (e.g., displayed content includes main menu user interface), the third user interface can be displayed and the second results can be included in the displayed third user interface.
In some examples, a determination can be made as to whether the second results include results of a predetermined type. The predetermined type of results can be associated with a display area that is less than a majority of the display area of the display unit. The predetermined type of results can include, for example, results related to stocks or weather. It should be recognized that in other examples, the predetermined type of results can vary. In response to determining that the second results include results of a predetermined type, a portion of the second results can be displayed in a second user interface on the display unit. The second user interface can occupy less than a majority of the display area of the display unit. In these examples, the portion of the second results can be displayed in the second user interface even though it is determined at block 736 that the displayed content does not comprise media content.
In the present example of
As illustrated in this example, second results can be presented in the third user interface only after determining that media content is not being displayed on the display unit. This allows for a broader range of results to be displayed in the larger area to increase the probability that the user's actual intent is satisfied. At the same time, the user's consumption of media content is not disrupted by ensuring that no media content is being displayed on the display unit prior to presenting the second results in the third user interface.
With reference back to block 736, the displayed content can include media content that is playing on the media device. In these examples, a determination can be made that the displayed content comprises media content playing on the media device. In accordance with this determination, one or more of blocks 740-746 can be performed.
At block 740 of process 700, a determination can be made as to whether the media content being played can be paused. Examples of media content that can be paused can include on-demand media items, such as on-demand movies and television shows. Examples of media content that cannot be paused can include media programs of broadcast or streaming services and live media programs (e.g., sports events, concerts, etc.). Thus, on-demand media items may not include broadcast or live programs. In accordance with a determination at block 740 that the media content being played cannot be paused, block 742 can be performed. At block 742 of process 700, a second user interface with a portion of the second results can be displayed on the display unit. Block 742 can be similar to block 536, described above. The second user interface can be displayed while the media content is displayed. The display area occupied by the second user interface on the display unit can be smaller than a display area occupied by the media content on the display unit. In accordance with a determination that the media content being played can be paused, one or more of blocks 744-746 can be performed. At block 744 of process 700, the media content being played can be paused on the media device. At block 746 of process 700, a third user interface with a portion of the second results can be displayed. The third user interface can be displayed while the media content is paused.
In some examples, as shown in
At block 902 of process 900, content can be displayed on a display unit. Block 902 can be similar or identical to block 502, described above. In some examples, the displayed content can include media content (e.g., movies, videos, television shows, video games, etc.). Additionally or alternatively, the displayed content can include a user interface. For example, the displayed content can include a first user interface with one or more exemplary natural language requests (e.g., as shown in
At block 904 of process 900, while displaying the content of block 902, a user input can be detected. The user input can be similar or identical to the fifth user input described at block 558. In particular, the user input can be detected on a remote control of the media device. For example, the user input can include a predetermined motion pattern on a touch-sensitive surface of the remote control device. In some examples, user input can be detected via a second electronic device (e.g., device 122) that is different from the media device. The second electronic device can be configured to wirelessly control the media device. In response to detecting the user input, one or more of blocks 906-914 can be performed.
At block 906 of process 900, a virtual keyboard interface (e.g., virtual keyboard interface 646) can be displayed on the display unit. Block 906 can be similar or identical to block 562, described above. The virtual keyboard interface can be overlaid on at least a portion of the first user interface or the third user interface. Further, a search field (e.g., search field 644) can be displayed on the display unit. The virtual keyboard interface can be configured such that user input received via the virtual keyboard interface causes text entry in the search field.
At block 908 of process 900, a selectable affordance can be caused to be displayed on a second electronic device (e.g., on touchscreen 346 of device 122). The second electronic device can be a different device than the remote control of the media device. A selection of the affordance can enable text input to be received by the media device via a keyboard of the second electronic device. For example, selection of the affordance can cause a virtual keyboard interface (e.g., similar to virtual keyboard interface 646) to be displayed on the second electronic device. Input to the virtual keyboard interface of the second electronic device can cause corresponding text to be entered in the search field (e.g., search field 644).
At block 910 of process 900, text input can be received via a keyboard (e.g., a virtual keyboard interface) of the second electronic device. In particular, a user can input text via the keyboard of the second electronic device and the text input can be transmitted to and received by the media device. The text input can represent a user request. For example, the text input can be “Jurassic Park,” which can represent a request to perform a search for media items associated with the search string “Jurassic Park.”
At block 912 of process 900, results that at least partially satisfy the user request can be obtained. For example, a media search can be performed using the text input and corresponding media items can be obtained. In the specific example where the text input is “Jurassic Park,” media items having the title “Jurassic Park,” or having a common actor or director as the movie “Jurassic Park” can be obtained. In another example where the text input is “Reese Witherspoon,” media items in which Reese Witherspoon is an actress can be obtained.
At block 914 of process 900, a user interface can be displayed on the display unit. The user interface can include at least a portion of the results. For example, the user interface can include media items obtained as a result of media searches performed at block 912.
Although certain blocks of processes 500, 700, and 900 are described above as being performed by a device or system (e.g., media device 104, user device 122, or digital assistant system 400), it should be recognized that in some examples, more than one device can be used to perform a block. For example, in blocks where a determination is made, a first device (e.g., media device 104) can obtain the determination from a second device (e.g., server system 108). Similarly, in blocks where content, objects, text, or user interfaces are displayed, a first device (e.g., media device 104) can cause the content, objects, text, or user interfaces to be displayed on a second device (e.g., display unit 126).
5. Electronic Devices
In accordance with some examples,
As shown in
In accordance with some embodiments, processing unit 1008 is configured to display (e.g., with display enabling unit 1010) content on a display unit (e.g., display unit 1002 or a separate display unit). Processing unit 1008 is further configured to detect (e.g., with detecting unit 1012) a user input. Processing unit 1008 is further configured to determine (e.g., with determining unit 1014) whether the user input corresponds to a first input type. Processing unit 1008 is further configured to, in accordance with a determination that the user input corresponds to a first input type, displayed (e.g., display enabling unit 1010) on the display unit, a plurality of exemplary natural language requests. The plurality of exemplary natural language requests are contextually-related to the displayed content, where receiving a user utterance corresponding to one of the plurality of exemplary natural language requests causes the digital assistant to perform a respective action.
In some examples, the user input is detected on a remote control of the electronic device. In some examples, first input type comprises pressing a button of the remote control and releasing the button within a predetermined duration. In some examples, the plurality of exemplary natural language requests are displayed on the display unit via a first user interface, and the first user interface is overlaid on the displayed content. In some examples, the displayed content comprises media content, and the media content continues to play while displaying the plurality of exemplary natural language requests.
In some examples, processing unit 1008 is further configured to, in accordance with a determination that the user input corresponds to a first input type, display (e.g., with display enabling unit 1010) on the display unit a visual indicator indicating that the digital assistant is not processing audio input.
In some examples, upon determining that the user input corresponds to a first input type, the plurality of exemplary natural language requests are displayed on the display unit after a predetermined amount of time. In some examples, each of the plurality of exemplary natural language requests is displayed separately in a predetermined sequence and at different times.
In some examples, processing unit 1008 is further configured to display (e.g., with display enabling unit 1010) a plurality of lists of exemplary natural language requests, where each list is displayed at a different time and on a rotating basis.
In some examples, processing unit 1008 is further configured to, in accordance with a determination that the user input does not correspond to a first input type, determine (e.g., with determining unit 1014) whether the user input corresponds to a second input type. Processing unit 1008 is further configured to, in accordance with a determination that the user input corresponds to a second input type, sample (e.g., with sampling unit 1016 and audio input unit 1004) audio data. Processing unit 1008 is further configured to determined (e.g., with determining unit 1014) whether the audio data contains a user request. Processing unit 1008 is further configured to, in accordance with a determination that the audio data contains a user request, perform (e.g., with performing unit 1020) a task that at least partially satisfies the user request.
In some examples, the second input type comprises pressing a button of a remote control of the electronic device and holding down the button for greater than a predetermined duration.
In some examples, processing unit 1008 is further configured to, in accordance with a determination that the audio data does not contain a user request, display (e.g., with display enabling unit 1010) on the display unit, a request for clarification of user intent.
In some examples, the displayed content comprises media content, and the media content continues to play on the electronic device while sampling the audio data and while performing the task.
In some examples, processing unit 1008 is further configured to output (e.g., with outputting unit 1018) audio (e.g., using speaker unit 1006) associated with the media content. Processing unit 1008 is further configured to, in accordance with a determination that the user input corresponds to a second input type, reduce (e.g., with outputting unit 1018) an amplitude of the audio.
In some examples, the task is performed without outputting speech related to the task from the electronic device. In some examples, the audio data is sampled while detecting the user input. In some examples, the audio data is sampled for a predetermined duration after detecting the user input.
In some examples, the audio data is sampled via a first microphone (e.g., audio input unit 1004) on a remote control of the electronic device. Processing unit 1008 is further configured to, while sampling the audio data, sample (e.g., with sampling unit 1016 and audio input unit 1004) background audio data via a second microphone (e.g., a second audio input unit of electronic device 1000) on the remote control. Processing unit 1008 is further configured to remove (e.g., with outputting unit 1018) background noise in the audio data using the background audio data.

The operations described above with reference to
In accordance with some implementations, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium is provided, the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs for execution by one or more processors of an electronic device, the one or more programs including instructions for performing any of the methods described herein.
In accordance with some implementations, an electronic device (e.g., a portable electronic device) is provided that comprises means for performing any of the methods described herein.
In accordance with some implementations, an electronic device (e.g., a portable electronic device) is provided that comprises a processing unit configured to perform any of the methods described herein.
In accordance with some implementations, an electronic device (e.g., a portable electronic device) is provided that comprises one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for performing any of the methods described herein.
Although the foregoing description uses terms “first,” “second,” etc. to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by the terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another. For example, a first user input could be termed a second user input, and, similarly, a second user input could be termed a first user input, without departing from the scope of the various described embodiments. The first user input and the second user input are both user inputs, but they are not the same touch.
The terminology used in the description of the various described embodiments herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. As used in the description of the various described embodiments and the appended claims, the singular forms “a”, “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will also be understood that the term “and/or” as used herein refers to and encompasses any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. It will be further understood that the terms “includes,” “including,” “comprises,” and/or “comprising,” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.
The term “if” may be construed to mean “when” or “upon” or “in response to determining” or “in response to detecting,” depending on the context. Similarly, the phrase “if it is determined” or “if [a stated condition or event] is detected” may be construed to mean “upon determining” or “in response to determining” or “upon detecting [the stated condition or event]” or “in response to detecting [the stated condition or event],” depending on the context.
Further, the foregoing description, for purpose of explanation, has been described with reference to specific embodiments. However, the illustrative discussions above are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations are possible in view of the above teachings. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the techniques and their practical applications. Others skilled in the art are thereby enabled to best utilize the techniques and various embodiments with various modifications as are suited to the particular use contemplated.
Although the disclosure and examples have been fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings, it is to be noted that various changes and modifications will become apparent to those skilled in the art. Such changes and modifications are to be understood as being included within the scope of the disclosure and examples as defined by the claims
In addition, in any of the various examples discussed herein, various aspects can be personalized for a particular user. User data including contacts, preferences, location, favorite media, and the like can be used to interpret voice commands and facilitate user interaction with the various devices discussed herein. The various processes discussed herein can also be modified in various other ways according to user preferences, contacts, text, usage history, profile data, demographics, or the like. In addition, such preferences and settings can be updated over time based on user interactions (e.g., frequently uttered commands, frequently selected applications, etc.). Gathering and use of user data that is available from various sources can be used to improve the delivery to users of invitational content or any other content that may be of interest to them. The present disclosure contemplates that in some instances, this gathered data can include personal information data that uniquely identifies or can be used to contact or locate a specific person. Such personal information data can include demographic data, location-based data, telephone numbers, email addresses, home addresses, or any other identifying information.
The present disclosure recognizes that the use of such personal information data, in the present technology, can be used to the benefit of users. For example, the personal information data can be used to deliver targeted content that is of greater interest to the user. Accordingly, use of such personal information data enables calculated control of the delivered content. Further, other uses for personal information data that benefit the user are also contemplated by the present disclosure.
The present disclosure further contemplates that the entities responsible for the collection, analysis, disclosure, transfer, storage, or other use of such personal information data will comply with well-established privacy policies and/or privacy practices. In particular, such entities should implement and consistently use privacy policies and practices that are generally recognized as meeting or exceeding industry or governmental requirements for maintaining personal information data as private and secure. For example, personal information from users should be collected for legitimate and reasonable uses of the entity and not shared or sold outside of those legitimate uses. Further, such collection should occur only after receiving the informed consent of the users. Additionally, such entities would take any needed steps for safeguarding and securing access to such personal information data and ensuring that others with access to the personal information data adhere to their privacy policies and procedures. Further, such entities can subject themselves to evaluation by third parties to certify their adherence to widely accepted privacy policies and practices.
Despite the foregoing, the present disclosure also contemplates examples in which users selectively block the use of, or access to, personal information data. That is, the present disclosure contemplates that hardware and/or software elements can be provided to prevent or block access to such personal information data. For example, in the case of advertisement delivery services, the present technology can be configured to allow users to select to “opt in” or “opt out” of participation in the collection of personal information data during registration for services. In another example, users can select not to provide location information for targeted content delivery services. In yet another example, users can select not to provide precise location information, but permit the transfer of location zone information.
Therefore, although the present disclosure broadly covers use of personal information data to implement one or more various disclosed examples, the present disclosure also contemplates that the various examples can also be implemented without the need for accessing such personal information data. That is, the various examples of the present technology are not rendered inoperable due to the lack of all or a portion of such personal information data. For example, content can be selected and delivered to users by inferring preferences based on non-personal information data or a bare minimum amount of personal information, such as the content being requested by the device associated with a user, other non-personal information available to the content delivery services, or publicly available information.
