Application ID: 14503370

Base Claim:
1. A method for processing discourse input comprising: at an electronic device with a processor and memory storing one or more programs for execution by the processor: receiving a discourse input from a user; determining a text string corresponding to the discourse input, wherein determining the text string comprises: determining, using a first language model, a conditional probability of a candidate word in the discourse input given one or more words in the discourse input; determining, using a second language model, a probability of the candidate word within a corpus; determining, using a third language model, a conditional probability of the candidate word given one or more classes associated with the one or more words; and determining an integrated probability of the candidate word and one or more subclasses associated with the candidate word based on: the conditional probability of the candidate word given the one or more words; the probability of the candidate word within the corpus; and the conditional probability of the candidate word given the one or more classes, wherein the text string is based on the integrated probability; and generating an output based on the text string.

Claim 8:
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the integrated probability is less dependent on the conditional probability of the candidate word given the one or more classes when the probability of the candidate word within the corpus is higher than when the probability of the candidate word within the corpus is lower.
