Systems and methods for improving fulfillment of media content related requests via utterance-based human-machine interfaces

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and devices for human-machine interfaces for improving machine understanding and fulfillment of utterance-based requests provided via the interfaces. Multiple candidate understandings from multiple stages of a natural language processing flow are preserved for arbitration and choosing by an arbitrator that applies arbitration rules to the plurality of candidates and chooses a single candidate for initiation of a corresponding service. In an embodiment, the arbitrator uses a media content taste profile to choose a candidate understanding for initiation of a corresponding service.
