Abstract

See full text

Functionality is described herein for determining the intents of linguistic items (such as queries), to produce intent output information. For some linguistic items, the functionality deterministically assigns intents to the linguistic items based on known intent labels, which, in turn, may be obtained or derived from a knowledge graph or other type of knowledge resource. For other linguistic items, the functionality infers the intents of the linguistic items based on selection log data (such as click log data provided by a search system). In some instances, the intent output information may reveal new intents that are not represented by the known intent labels. In one implementation, the functionality can use the intent output information to train a language understanding model.
