provider selection service

dirk: discusses diagram in https://w3c.github.io/voiceinteraction/voice%20interaction%20drafts/paArchitecture.htm
... and accompanying text

in section 3.3.1

scribe: added 3.3.2
... given ASR result, how to select the right provider
... maybe just return an nbest

debbie: what if there are 1000's of services

dirk: maybe some kind of filtering
... or preprocessing

jon: how do different IPA's communicate?
... how is the initial question processed

debbie: very similar to a web search

jon: could either do a blind search or a search for a specific IPA

dirk: could say "ask Debbie's store for ice cream"

jon: could provider service use my current location to filter results?

dirk: this is another optimization that could be done
... this is a brute force approach now, and needs to be made better

jon: prefiltering could be done on the basis of knowing who the owner is
... language, citizenship, location, etc.

debbie: we need some way of representing intent sets
... maybe something like OWL, RDF or XML Schema
... we don't have to invent it
... how would abstraction work?
... there could be a lot of ways of describing the same intent, abstraction would be difficult
... sometimes one of the slots is built into the intent, like "plan air travel"
... or you could just have "plan travel" and the means of travel is a slot
... we need to avoid having to make an ontology of the world

jon: maybe use a unique identifier for each entity

debbie: we used to have to specify a url for every web activity
... now, only the url's are standardized

jon: we should have a unique identifier or each entity
... that would prevent squatting on providers

debbie: micorsoft

jon: is it the owner of the IPA that is affiliated with a specific organization?

debbie: what if it was a big organization with multiple IP
... A's

dirk: similar to the situation in today's cars, some built-in but you can also connect your smartphone
... can update document with these points

OVN presentation

debbie: dirk would go through the architecture and the diagram
... for OVN

jon: define critical common components for potential standardization
... jim larson is the moderator
