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.

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.

PURPOSE: A method for a service to lease a partial or fixed frame of a web site is provided to make a client simultaneously receive the service from two web sites in a single web site by making an LSO(Lease Site Operator) operate the partial or fixed frame of the web page provided from an LSP(Lease Site Provider) leasing the frame of the site having many visitors CONSTITUTION: When a client connects to the LSP, the information for the LSO optimized to the client is extracted from an LSO database(205) An HTML(HyperText Markup Language) document including a path between the client and the LSO, and reserving a lease section used by the LSO is transmitted to the client after transmitting the client information to the LSO based on the extracted lease site operator information If a request is generated from the client through the HTML document, the contents requested from the LSP is transmitted to the client through the path The LSO transmits a contents transmission result data to the LSP after transmission(225) A lease charge is calculated to the LSO based on the contents transmission result data(235)

Method for service to lease partial or fixed frame of web site so as to generate leasing profit

A method for providing an anti-virus vaccine by using remote streaming is provided to cure virus stored in the hard disk, and remove inconvenience of storing or downloading the anti-virus vaccine in the hard disk by searching and curing the virus by buffering vaccine data streamed from a vaccine provider in real-time. An anti-virus vaccine delivered to a cache server is buffered to a vaccine container of a client terminal if the client terminal selects a cache server of minimum middle-mile and a vaccine providing server(235). The vaccine container searches and cures the virus by using the buffered vaccine(250). The vaccine container transmits a virus search and cure result to a vaccine providing server(260).

PURPOSE: A store terminal for interworking order information and program for the same are provided to automatically localize an order program equipped with a wireless terminal of a user through an access point in a store. CONSTITUTION: An order information connector(135) configures medium storing order information. The configured information is transferred to an order information storage unit(120). An order reception processor(140) configures order reception information data. A payment processing confirmation unit(150) confirms a payment process result.

Pos terminal for linking different order information, program

A broadcast contents search processing method and system, and an IPTV and a recording medium therefor are provided to input or select a button through a remote control device or use only a button on UI(User Interface), thereby overcoming the disadvantage of a TV in which the input of a keyword is inconvenient. A server receives viewer receives search service request information for broadcasting contents which a viewer is watching through an IPTV(Internet Protocol Television) communications unit(405). The server confirms broadcasting contents information which the viewer is currently watching. The server confirms one or more keyword information related to the confirmed broadcasting contents(415). The server processes the one or more confirmed keyword information to be outputted on an IPTV screen(455).
