Embodiment Construction

[0023] In the following description of the examples, reference is made to the accompanying drawings, in which are shown by way of illustrations specific examples that may be practiced. It is to be understood that other examples may be utilized and structural changes may be made without departing from the scope of the various examples.

[0024] During a conversational communication (e.g., phone call, instant message, video phone call, etc.) between the user's electronic device and a second electronic device, the user may look up information or perform other tasks (e.g., create a calendar event) Not convenient. This may be because the electronic device is displaying information required for conversational communication (eg, during an instant message), or because the electronic device is positioned against the user's face (eg, during a phone call). Furthermore, a user of an electronic device may need to focus his or her attention on communicating with the other participant or pa...

Abstract

Systems and processes for proactive assistance based on dialog communication between devices are provided. In one example process, while voice communication between an electronic device and a second electronic device is established, a stream of audio data associated with the second electronic device can be received. In response to detecting a user input, a text representation of speech contained in a portion of the stream of audio data can be generated. The process can determine whether the text representation contains information corresponding to one of a plurality of types of information. Inresponse to determining that the text representation contains information corresponding to one of a plurality of types of information, one or more tasks based on the information can be performed.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims U.S. Provisional Application 62 / 387,547, filed December 23, 2015, entitled "PROACTIVE ASSISTANCE BASED ON dialog communication BETWEEN DEVICES" and Priority to US nonprovisional application 15 / 169,348, both applications are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety for all purposes. technical field [0003] This application relates generally to intelligent automated assistants, and more specifically to proactive assistance based on conversational communication between devices. Background technique [0004] Intelligent automated assistants (or digital assistants) can provide a favorable interface between human users and electronic devices. Such assistants may allow users to interact with a device or system in spoken and / or textual form using natural language. For example, a user may provide spoken input containing user requests to a digital assistant running on an electronic device. ...
