Techniques for personalized search for bots
Techniques for personalized search for bots are described. In one embodiment, an apparatus may comprise a client communication component operative to receive a user service prompt from a user client device at a bot-service system, the user service prompt expressed in natural language and identify two or more filtered bots to the user client device in response to receiving the user service prompt from the user client device; and an interaction processing component operative to determine two or more selected bots of a plurality of bots and determine the two or more filtered bots of the two or more selected bots based on bot relevancy. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
receiving one or more messages from a group messaging thread between two or more users, the one or more messages received from a messaging application associated with a messaging system;
determining an intent of the two or more users by analyzing the one or more received messages using a natural language processor;
selecting two or more bots based on the ability of the selected bots to address the determined intent of the two or more users;
retrieving preferences of one or more of the users engaged in the group messaging thread from user profiles associated with the users on the messaging system;
filtering the selected bots based on preferences of the users;
querying the filtered bots for bot ranking information comprising results of an analysis performed by each of the filtered bots regarding the suitability of each bot for responding to the intent of the users
ranking the filtered bots based on the bot ranking information; and
identifying the ranked, filtered bots to the users via the messaging application.
2. The method of claim 1 , the group messaging thread comprising a bot interaction result.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the users in the group messaging thread is associated with a user account on the messaging system, and wherein querying the filtered bots for the bot ranking information comprises providing user information from the user account.
4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:
determining a user-information share setting for one or more of the filtered bots; and
requesting a user-information share permission from the user account based on
the user-information share setting.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user preferences used for filtering the selected bots includes one or more of user behavior information, user location information, user messaging context information, and user bot history information.
6. An apparatus, comprising:
a processor circuit on a device;
software, operative on the processor circuit to:
receive one or more messages from a group messaging thread between two or more users, the one or more messages received from a messaging application associated with a messaging system;
determine an intent of two or more users by analyzing the one or more received messages using a natural language processor;
select two or more bots based on the ability of the selected bots to address the determined intent of the two of more users;
retrieve preferences of one or more of the users engaged in the group messaging thread from user profiles associated with the users on the messaging system
filter the selected bots based on preferences of the users;
query the filtered bots for bot ranking information comprising results of an analysis performed by each of the filtered bots regarding the suitability of each bot for responding to the intent of the users
rank the filtered bots based on the bot ranking information; and
identify the ranked, filtered bots to the users via the messaging application.
7. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein at least one of the users in the group messaging thread is associated with a user account on the messaging system, and wherein querying the filtered bots for the bot ranking information comprises providing user information from the user account.
8. The apparatus of claim 6 , the software further operative to:
determine a user-information share setting for one or more of the filtered bots; and
request a user-information share permission from the user account based on the user-information share.
9. The apparatus of claim 6 ,
wherein the user preferences used for filtering the selected bots includes one or more of user behavior information, user location information, user messaging context information, and user bot history information.
10. At least one non-transitory computer-readable storage
medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a system to:
receive one or more messages from a group messaging thread between two or more users, the one or more messages received from a messaging application associated with a messaging system;
determine an intent of two or more users by analyzing the one or more received messages using a natural language processor;
select two or more bots based on the ability of the selected bots to address the determined intent of the two or more users;
retrieve preferences of one or more of the users engaged in the group messaging thread from user profiles associated with the users on the messaging system;
filter the selected bots based preferences of the users;
query the filtered bots for bot ranking information comprising results of an analysis performed by each of the filtered bots regarding the suitability of each bot for responding to the intent of the users
rank the filtered bots based on the bot ranking information; and
identify the ranked, filtered bots to the users via the messaging application.
11. the computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein at least one of the users in the group messaging thread is associated with a user account on the messaging system, and wherein querying the filtered bots for the bot ranking information comprises providing user information from the user account.
12. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , comprising further instructions that, when executed, cause the system to:
determine a user-information share setting for one or more of the filtered bots; and
request a user-information share permission from the user account based on the
user-information share setting.
13. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the user preferences used for filtering the selected bots includes one or more of user behavior information, user location information, user messaging context information, and user bot history information.
