Sequence to sequence conversational query understanding

Abstract:

Systems and techniques for sequence to sequence conversational query understanding are described herein. A query may be received that includes multiple words. It may be identified that the query is to be reformulated based on an attention value for an attention word in the query. Relationships may be determined among words of the query and words in a previously submitted query and words in results from the previously submitted query. The query may be reformulated based on the relationships. The reformulated query may be employed to retrieve query results.
