Patent attributes
Techniques for performing command processing are described. A system receives, from a device, input data corresponding to a command. The input data may originate as audio data, as text data, or as other data. The system determines NLU processing results corresponding to the input data. The NLU processing results may be associated with multiple speechlets. The system also determines NLU confidences for the NLU processing results for each speechlet. The system sends NLU processing results and an indication to provide potential results to a portion of the multiple speechlets, and receives potential results from the portion of the speechlets. The system also receives indications whether the speechlets need to be re-called if the speechlets are selected to execute with respect to the command. The system ranks the portion of the speechlets based at least in part on the NLU processing results as well as the potential results provided by the portion of the speechlets. The system may also rank the portion of the applications using other data. The system causes content provided by the highest ranked speechlet to be output to a user.
