An intelligent automated assistant system engages with the user in an integrated, conversational manner using natural language dialog, and invokes external services when appropriate to obtain information or perform various actions. The system can be implemented using any of a number of different platforms, such as the web, email, smartphone, and the like, or any combination thereof. In one embodiment, the system is based on sets of interrelated domains and tasks, and employs additional functionally powered by external services with which the system can interact.

Intelligent Automated Assistant

A virtual assistant uses context information to supplement natural language or gestural input from a user. Context helps to clarify the user's intent and to reduce the number of candidate interpretations of the user's input, and reduces the need for the user to provide excessive clarification input. Context can include any available information that is usable by the assistant to supplement explicit user input to constrain an information-processing problem and/or to personalize results. Context can be used to constrain solutions during various phases of processing, including, for example, speech recognition, natural language processing, task flow processing, and dialog generation.

Using context information to facilitate processing of commands in a virtual assistant

A mobile terminal and a control method thereof, which can obtain an image, are provided. A mobile terminal (100) includes a camera unit (121), a pictogram extraction unit (182) and a controller (180). The camera unit (121) obtains image information corresponding to at least one of a still image and a moving image. The pictogram extraction unit (182) extracts at least one pictogram from the obtained image information. The controller (180) detects information related to the extracted pictogram, and displays the detected information to be overlapped with the obtained image information. In the mobile terminal, the controller (180) includes, as the detected information, at least one of previously recorded information and currently searched information related to the extracted pictogram.

Mobile terminal and control method thereof

In one aspect, a system includes a transaction handler to process transactions, a data warehouse to store transaction data recording the transactions processed at the transaction handler and to store mapping data between first user identifiers and first account identifiers, a profile generator to generate a profile of a user based on the transaction data, and a portal coupled to the transaction handler to receive a query identifying a second user identifier used by the first tracker to track online activities of a user. The system is to identify a second account identifier of the user from the second user identifier based on the mapping data between the first user identifiers and the first account identifiers to facilitate targeted advertising using the profile of the user and/or to provide information about certain transactions of the user related to a previously presented advertisement.

Systems and methods to match identifiers

A method and apparatus are provided for building an intelligent automated assistant. Embodiments of the present invention rely on the concept of “active ontologies” (e.g., execution environments constructed in an ontology-like manner) to build and run applications for use by intelligent automated assistants. In one specific embodiment, a method for building an automated assistant includes interfacing a service-oriented architecture that includes a plurality of remote services to an active ontology, where the active ontology includes at least one active processing element that models a domain. At least one of the remote services is then registered for use in the domain.

Method and apparatus for building an intelligent automated assistant

PURPOSE: A method for requesting for authenticating an originator of a voice communication network using a data communication network, smart phone, and program are provided to automatically authenticate a call requested by an originator by receiving an authentication key value using the data communication network. CONSTITUTION: A reception information acquisition unit(150) acquires reception information reception information which requests for connecting a call using a voice network. An apparatus confirmation unit(165) confirms an authentication key receiver which receives an authentication key value based on the reception information. An authentication key creation unit creates an authentication key value. An authentication key transmission unit(170) transmits the authentication key value to an authentication key reception apparatus using a data communication network.

Method for requesting caller authentication of voice network using data network, caller device and program

PURPOSE: An augmented reality transmission system between different kind platforms is provided to display the message of a first augmented reality apparatus to a second augmented reality apparatus by inputting real reality data CONSTITUTION: A data storage unit(105) stores virtual reality conversion information according to the resource performance of a platform An information reception unit(125) receives augmented reality transmission request information and second augmented reality apparatus information from a first augmented reality apparatus A virtual reality conversion unit(130) changes second virtual reality data corresponding to the second platform resource performance through the virtual reality conversion information

System for transferring augmented reality between different platform

A sensor operating method and a recording medium are provided to make a sensor unit, installed at a tag which has at least one sensor and an RF communication function, automatically determine whether to generate or obtain the sensed data such that important sensed data can be generated or obtained without loss. A sensor operating method comprises the following several steps. A sensor(160), connected to a tag which includes a power unit(115), a memory(140) and an antenna(110), periodically supplies power for a tag via the power unit or the battery(115). The sensor(160) provides sensed data or a sensed signal for the tag via connection between the sensor(160) and the tag. If there occurs a change or an abnormality in the sensed data or the sensed signal, the sensor supplies power for the tag via the power unit or the battery(115) and transmits the change or the abnormality to the tag via connection between the sensor(160) and the tag.

Method for operating sensor and recording medium

PURPOSE: A method for operating a plurality of authenticating method type OTP(One Time Password), which is connected with a user medium, a system, a portable terminal and a recording medium for the same are provided to firstly authenticate a mobile phone as a valid OTP medium through OTP medium authentication information and secondly authenticates the mobile phone as the valid OTP medium through received OTP. CONSTITUTION: A server firstly authenticates a mobile phone as an OTP medium generating N digits of an OTP(445). The server secondly authenticates the mobile phone as the OTP medium(465). When authenticating the mobile phone as the OTP medium firstly and a secondly, the server transmits OTP generation information related to a user medium from a storing medium to the mobile phone(470). The mobile phone receives the OTP generation information. The mobile phone generates N digits of OTP(475).

System and method for displaying otp by multiple authentication mode with customer's media, mobile phone and recording medium

PURPOSE: A method for recommending an insurance using a mileage is provided to promote the mileage by making a client join the insurance with the mileage and offering the proper insurance goods through the propensity data of each client. CONSTITUTION: The accumulated mileage of the client is confirmed(205). A mileage use pattern of the client is analyzed(215). The propensity data of the client is extracted from a result analyzing the mileage use pattern of the client. The insurance goods fit to the propensity of the client are extracted by referring to the propensity data(235). When a premium for the extracted insurance goods is calculated, the mileage paid for the premium is calculated, the premium to be paid is calculated again, or the remaining mileage is paid for the premium(240).
