SELF-LEARNING, CONTEXT AWARE VIRTUAL ASSISTANTS, SYSTEMS AND METHODS

摘要

A virtual assistant learning system is presented. A monitoring device, a cell phone for example, observes user interactions with an environment by acquiring sensor data. The monitoring device uses the sensor data to identify the interactions, which in turn is provided to an inference engine. The inference engine leverages the interaction data and previously stored knowledge elements about the user to determine if the interaction exhibits one or more user preferences. The inference engine can use the preferences and interactions to construct queries targeting search engines to seek out possible future interactions that might be of interest to the user.
