1. A computing device comprising:

  • a processor;

    a display;

    a memory configured to store a plurality of phrase splitting models wherein said plurality of phrase splitting models comprises at least a first phrase splitting model having a first process to provide a list of possible split locations and a second phrase splitting model having a second process different from the first process to provide a list of possible split locations; and

    a phrase splitting kernel module configured to execute on the processor thereby configuring the processor to;

    receive a digital representation of an utterance comprising multiple words;

    for each phrase splitting model in the plurality of phrase splitting models, generate a suggested set of split locations between representations of words in the digital representation as a function of a corresponding phrase splitting model in the plurality of phrase splitting models;

    compile a set of phrase split locations according to a phrase splitting kernel algorithm implementation as a function of the suggested set of split locations from each of the phrase splitting models in the plurality of phrase splitting models based, at least in part, on weights associated with each of the phrase splitting models wherein the weights are capable of adjustment;

    split the digital representation into a set of n-grams comprising words according to the set of phrase split locations; and

    cause content related to at least some of the n-grams in the set of n-grams to be rendered on the display.
