Abstract
A system and method invoke virtual assistant action, which may comprise an argument. From audio, a probability of an intent is inferred. A probability of a domain and a plurality of variable values may also be inferred. Invoking the action is in response to the intent probability exceeding a threshold. Invoking the action may also be in response to the domain probability exceeding a threshold, a variable value probability exceeding a threshold, detecting an end of utterance, and a specific amount of time having elapsed. The intent probability may increase when the audio includes speech of words with the same meaning in multiple natural languages. Invoking the action may also be conditional on the variable value exceeding its threshold within a certain period of time of the intent probability exceeding its threshold.
