Systems and processes for operating an intelligent automated assistant are provided. In accordance with one example, a method includes, at an electronic device with one or more processors and memory, receiving a first natural-language speech input indicative of a request for media, where the first natural-language speech input comprises a first search parameter; providing, by a digital assistant, a first media item identified based on the first search parameter. The method further includes, while providing the first media item, receiving a second natural-language speech input and determining whether the second input corresponds to a user intent of refining the request for media. The method further includes, in accordance with a determination that the second speech input corresponds to a user intent of refining the request for media: identifying, based on the first parameter and the second speech input, a second media item and providing the second media item.

Systems and methods are described for facilitating adjustment of multiple variables via a content guidance application. The method comprises generating, for display via a graphical user interface of a touchscreen, a first axis defining a first scale for a first adjustment characteristic. The method further comprises assigning to the first adjustment characteristic a plurality of first variables stored in memory. The method further comprises detecting, via the touchscreen, a touch input having a component along the first axis for adjusting the first adjustment characteristic. The method further comprises, in response to detecting the touch input, adjusting, in the memory, each of the plurality of first variables assigned to the first adjustment characteristic based on the touch input and the first scale.

Methods and systems are disclosed in which audio broadcasts are converted into audio segments, for example, based on segment content. These audio segments are indexed, so as to be searchable, as computer searchable segments, for example, by network search engines and other computerized search tools.

Systems and methods for searching for a media asset are described. In some aspects, the system includes control circuitry that receives a first search query from a user. The control circuitry identifies media assets related to the first search query from a content database. The control circuitry receives a second search query following the first search query. The control circuitry determines whether a media asset from the media assets is related to the second search query. In response to determining that less than a threshold number of media assets from the media assets are related to the second search query, the control circuitry transmits an instruction requesting the user to repeat the second search query. The control circuitry receives a third search query related to the first search query. The control circuitry determines a media asset from the media assets that is related to the third search query.

A method of providing configurable control of voice command systems is disclosed herein. The method comprising a parent device receiving a voice command and comparing the voice command to a set of preferences for a user. The set of preferences may relate to one or more interactions between the user and a playback device. The method further comprises the parent device translating the voice command to a user interface (UI) command sequence for the playback device based on the comparison. The playback device may then send the UI command sequence to the playback device as the configurable voice command. The playback device executes the UI command sequence to transition from the current output state to the desired output state intended by the user. A system for providing configurable voice control and computer program product are also disclosed.

Methods, systems, and computer programs for generating a playlist of media content items that are popular with the friends of the first user. A first user taste profile is determined and a user taste profile is determined for each of a plurality of social connections. A similarity score is calculated between the first user taste profile and the user taste profile of each social connection. Media content items consumed by social connections with the highest similarity score are selected and placed in a playlist for the first user.

Methods, systems and media for presenting information related to an event based on metadata are provided. In some implementations, the method comprises: detecting that a user-initiated event has been performed on a user device; detecting a plurality of sensors connected to the user device; causing a plurality of content items related to the user-initiated event to be obtained using the plurality of sensors connected to the user device; determining whether each of the plurality of content items is to be associated with the user-initiated event based on user device information from a plurality of data sources; associating a portion of the plurality of content items with the user-initiated event based on the determination; retrieving information related to the portion of the plurality of content items; detecting, using the plurality of sensors connected to the user device, a second plurality of content items; determining that at least one of the second plurality of content items is related to at least one of the first plurality of content items; and causing information related to the user-initiated event to be presented by the user device based at least in part on the determination.

A method for identifying and removing tissue from a food product that includes generating a three-dimensional model of a food product using a scanner and mapping the three-dimensional model onto the food product. The method also includes scanning the food product such that cross-sectional scanning images are generated based on the model, and, for each cross-sectional scanning image, determining a maximum thickness of the model and identifying a corresponding estimated tissue point, by using an identification method based on suitable characteristics of the food product model. The method includes fitting a curve to the estimated tissue points and generating a cut path based on the fitted curve, wherein the cut path defines an area of unwanted tissue that includes the estimated tissue points. The method further includes cutting the food product along the cut path, thereby, removing the area of unwanted tissue.

A method includes identifying a plurality of media content items for a playlist, each of the plurality of media content items having an introductory segment, one or more main segments, and an ending segment; determining a length of an ending segment of a first media content item and a length of an introductory segment of a second media content item; selecting an interstitial to be added to the playlist between one or more main segments of the first media content item and one or more main segments of the second media content item; and responsive to determining that a length of the interstitial is less than a combined length of the ending segment and the introductory segment, adjusting an overlap on the interstitial of the ending segment of the first content media item and the introductory segment of the second media content item.
