Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for customizing an action. In some implementations, voice input is received from a user and a context is determined from the voice input. Potential contextual data is identified based on the context and the voice input. A level of confidence is determined for an association of the potential contextual data and the context. An action is performed based on the voice input, the potential contextual data, and the level of confidence. The potential contextual data is used to customize the action.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, at data processing hardware, a voice input command from a user to perform a specific action;
- processing, by the data processing hardware, the voice input command and the specific action to identify potential contextual data necessary to perform the specific action, the potential contextual data comprising a current event that is related to the user and currently occurring relative to a time when the voice input command was received;
- presenting, by the data processing hardware, a refining prompt prompting the user to provide a confirmation response that confirms the potential contextual data is associated with the specified action;
- in response to receiving the confirmation response from the user, supplementing the voice input command based on the potential contextual data;
- and
- performing, by the data processing hardware, the specific action based on the supplemented voice input command.

A system comprising:
- data processing hardware;
- and
- memory hardware in communication with the data processing and storing instructions that when executed by the data processing hardware cause the data processing hardware to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a voice input command from a user to perform a specific action;
- processing the voice input command and the specific action to identify potential contextual data necessary to perform the specific action, the potential contextual data comprising a current event that is related to the user and currently occurring relative to a time when the voice input command was received;
- presenting a refining prompt prompting the user to provide a confirmation response that confirms the potential contextual data is associated with the specified action;
- in response to receiving the confirmation response from the user, supplementing the voice input command based on the potential contextual data;
- and
- performing the specific action based on the supplemented voice input command.
