1. A computer-implemented method performed by a data processing apparatus, comprising:
- accessing, by a data processing apparatus, data specifying a set of actions, each action defining a user device operation that is different from user device operations for each other action;
for each action;
accessing, by the data processing apparatus, a corresponding set of command sentences for the action, and for each command sentence, accessing user task response data classifying n-gram of the command sentence into at least a respective first set of n-grams belonging to non-terminal types and at least a second set of n-grams belonging to none of the non-terminal types;
generating, by the data processing apparatus, command grammars for the action, each of the command grammars defining non-terminals of each of the non-terminal types and at least one terminal defining at least one of the second set of n-grams; and
persisting the command grammars to a command model that facilitates, for each command grammar, the generation of an action score for the action from a parse of an input sentence using the command grammar, wherein the input sentence is a voice command phrase.

Abstract
Systems, methods and apparatus for learning parsing rules and argument identification from crowdsourcing of proposed command inputs. Crowdsourcing techniques to generate rules for parsing input sentences. A parse is used to determine whether the input sentence invokes a specific action, and if so, what arguments are to be passed to the invocation of the action.

1. A computer-implemented method performed by a data processing apparatus, comprising:
-
accessing, by a data processing apparatus, data specifying a set of actions, each action defining a user device operation that is different from user device operations for each other action; for each action; accessing, by the data processing apparatus, a corresponding set of command sentences for the action, and for each command sentence, accessing user task response data classifying n-gram of the command sentence into at least a respective first set of n-grams belonging to non-terminal types and at least a second set of n-grams belonging to none of the non-terminal types; generating, by the data processing apparatus, command grammars for the action, each of the command grammars defining non-terminals of each of the non-terminal types and at least one terminal defining at least one of the second set of n-grams; and persisting the command grammars to a command model that facilitates, for each command grammar, the generation of an action score for the action from a parse of an input sentence using the command grammar, wherein the input sentence is a voice command phrase. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5)

6. A system, comprising:
-
a data processing apparatus; and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium in data communication with the data processing apparatus storing instructions executable by the data processing apparatus and that upon such execution causes the data processing apparatus to perform operations comprising; accessing, by the data processing apparatus, data specifying a set of actions, each action defining a user device operation that is different from user device operations for each other action; for each action; accessing, by the data processing apparatus, a corresponding set of command sentences for the action, and for each command sentence, accessing user task response data classifying n-gram of the command sentence into at least a respective first set of n-grams belonging to non-terminal types and at least a second set of n-grams belonging to none of the non-terminal types; generating, by the data processing apparatus, command grammars for the action, each of the command grammars defining non-terminals of each of the non-terminal types and at least one terminal defining at least one of the second set of n-grams; and persisting the command grammars to a command model that facilitates, for each command grammar, the generation of an action score for the action from a parse of an input sentence using the command grammar, wherein the input sentence is a voice command phrase. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions executable by a data processing apparatus and that upon such execution causes the data processing apparatus to perform operations comprising:
-
accessing, by the data processing apparatus, data specifying a set of actions, each action defining a user device operation that is different from user device operations for each other action; for each action; accessing, by the data processing apparatus, a corresponding set of command sentences for the action, and for each command sentence, accessing user task response data classifying n-gram of the command sentence into at least a respective first set of n-grams belonging to non-terminal types and at least a second set of n-grams belonging to none of the non-terminal types; generating, by the data processing apparatus, command grammars for the action, each of the command grammars defining non-terminals of each of the non-terminal types and at least one terminal defining at least one of the second set of n-grams; and persisting the command grammars to a command model that facilitates, for each command grammar, the generation of an action score for the action from a parse of an input sentence using the command grammar, wherein the input sentence is a voice command phrase. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
