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.

A system for operating a plurality of homepage information is provided to register conditions of a predetermined homepage operation policy, thereby managing postings more efficiently A homepage information registration server(100) comprises an interface offer unit(110), an information receiving unit(115), and an information storage unit(120) When a predetermined user terminal(135) connects to the homepage information registration server through an interface unit(105), the interface offer unit produces or extracts a predetermined user interface by operating with the interface unit so that homepage information registration information is inputted(or selected) and transmitted in the user terminal, and provides the user interface to the user terminal The information receiving unit receives the homepage registration information by operating with the interface unit The information storage unit connects and processes the received homepage registration information and user information, and stores and registers the processed information in a predetermined storage medium(130)

System for operating multiple homepages information

A system for providing a ring back tone based on a location of a receiving subscriber set by the receiving subscriber is provided to confirm location based ring back tone setup information corresponding to a confirmed location of a receiving terminal and supply the confirmed location based ring back tone to a terminal which has requested call connection, thereby enabling a receiving subscriber to inform a calling terminal of a calling terminal's location before the receiving terminal responds to a call to connect the call. A unit(125) stores location based ring back tone setup information set by a subscriber of a receiving terminal in a database. A unit(145) checks a location of the receiving terminal. A unit(120) confirms location based ring back tone setup information corresponding to the checked location of the receiving terminal, and provides the confirmed location based ring back tone to a call terminal which has requested call connection to the receiving terminal.

System for providing ring back tone based on location of receive entity appointed by receiver

PURPOSE: A wireless communication device embedding a step counter function, a method and a system for the health management using the same are provided to enable a client to control the calories in real time and to manage the health based on the calorie consumption and health management information provided in real time. CONSTITUTION: The client(10) transmits the data of the food intake to a health management server(20) by using the wireless communication device(11) embedding the step counter function. The server reads out and transmits the necessary exercise amount for the calories of the food intake. If the exercise amount data is displayed on the wireless communication device after the client carries out the exercise, the exercise data is transmitted to the server. The server comprises an SMS(Short Message Service) message receiver, a food calorie library, a main controller, an SMS message transmitter and a data storage.
