User query history expansion for improving language model adaptation
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving a spoken query from a user;
processing the spoken query using an adapted language model, wherein the adapted language model is created using data associated with the spoken query, previous queries of the user and previous queries of a plurality of other users that share at least one common characteristic with the previous queries of the user, wherein the common characteristic is data for a selected uniform resource locator that is included in the previous queries of the user and included in the previous queries of the plurality of other users; and
generating, using the adapted language model, a recognition result for the spoken query.

Abstract
Query history expansion may be provided. Upon receiving a spoken query from a user, an adapted language model may be applied to convert the spoken query to text. The adapted language model may comprise a plurality of queries interpolated from the user'"'"'s previous queries and queries associated with other users. The spoken query may be executed and the results of the spoken query may be provided to the user.

9. A system comprising:
-
at least one processor; and a memory operatively connected with the processor storing instructions, that when executed on the processor, cause the processor to execute operations that comprise; receiving a spoken query from a user, creating an adapted language model to process the spoken query, wherein the adapted language model is created by expanding a set of previous queries of the user by interpolating previous queries of a plurality of other users that share at least one common characteristic with the previous queries of the user, wherein the common characteristic is data for a selected uniform resource locator that is included in the previous queries of the user and included in the previous queries of the plurality of other users, and processing data associated with the spoken query by applying the adapted language model to generate a recognition result for the spoken query. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A computer-readable storage device which stores a set of instructions, which when executed on at least one processor, cause the processor to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving a spoken query from a user; applying an adapted language model to convert the spoken query to text, wherein the adapted language model is created by expanding previous queries of the user by interpolating previous queries of a plurality of other users that share at least one common characteristic with the previous queries of the user, wherein the common characteristic is data for a selected uniform resource locator that is included in the previous queries of the user and included in the previous queries of the plurality of other users; and converting the spoken query to text based on application of the adapted language model. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
