Intent determination using geometric shape input
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for identifying a requested action using a geometric input, the method comprising:
- receiving a geometric pattern input associated with user-selectable content displayed on the device;
receiving an identifier of a referent entity identified as a specific person, specific place, specific physical object, or specific concept, the referent entity selected based on the geometric pattern input from a list of suggested entities identified from user-selectable content displayed on the device;
identifying, based on a shape of the geometric pattern input, at least one action to be executed that is associated with the referent entity that is identified as the specific person, specific place, specific physical object, or specific concept; and
providing an identifier of the at least one identified action to the device for selection.

Abstract
Computer-implemented methods for identifying a requested action using a geometric input are provided. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a geometric pattern input associated with user-selectable content displayed on the device, and receiving an identifier of a referent entity, the referent entity selected based on the geometric pattern input from a list of suggested entities identified from user-selectable content displayed on the device. The method also includes identifying, based on a shape of the geometric pattern input, at least one action to be executed that is associated with the referent entity based on the shape of the geometric pattern input, and providing an identifier of the at least one identified action to the device for selection. Systems, graphical user interfaces, and machine-readable media are also provided.

9. A system for identifying a requested action using a geometric input, the system comprising:
-
a memory comprising user-selectable content; and a processor configured to; receive a geometric pattern input associated with user-selectable content displayed on the device from a user; receive an identifier of a referent entity identified as a specific person, specific place, specific physical object, or specific concept, the referent entity selected based on the geometric pattern input from a list of suggested entities identified from user-selectable content displayed on the device; identify, based on a shape of the geometric pattern input, at least one action to be executed that is associated with the referent entity that is identified as the specific person, specific place, specific physical object, or specific concept; and provide an identifier of the at least one identified action to the device for selection by the user. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A graphical user interface for identifying a requested action using a geometric input, the graphical user interface comprising:
-
a content selection interface configured to receive, from a device, a geometric pattern input associated with user-selectable content displayed on the device; and an action selection interface configured to receive an identifier of a referent entity identified as a specific person, specific place, specific physical object, or specific concept, the referent entity selected based on the geometric pattern input from a list of suggested entities identified from user-selectable content displayed on the device, to identify, based on a shape of the geometric pattern input, at least one action to be executed that is associated with the referent that is identified as the specific person, specific place, specific physical object, or specific concept, and provide an identifier of the at least one identified action to the device for selection.

18. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising machine-readable instructions for causing a processor to execute a method for identifying a requested action using a geometric input, the method comprising:
-
receiving a geometric pattern input associated with user-selectable content displayed on the device; receiving an identifier of a referent entity identified as a specific person, specific place, specific physical object, or specific concept, the referent entity selected based on the geometric pattern input from a list of suggested entities identified from user-selectable content displayed on the device; identifying, based on a shape of the geometric pattern input, at least one action to be executed that is associated with the referent entity that is identified as the specific person, specific place, specific physical object, or specific concept; and providing an identifier of the at least one identified action to the device for selection.
