Abstract
Techniques for resolving ambiguous recipient users and/or recipient devices are described. A system receives input data from a device. The system may determine the input data corresponds to a spoken utterance requesting a call be established. When the system determines the recipient user and/or the recipient device is ambiguous, the system determines communications pattern data associated with the originating device. The system also determines context data. Based on the communications pattern data and the context data, the system may resolve an identity of the recipient user and/or resolve an identity of the recipient device. The system may also use communications pattern data and context data to determine when a device is likely to receive a communication and output content indicating same to a user.
