Abstract

Techniques for prioritizing resources of various users, associated with a device, when responding to a user input received from the device are described. When a user input is received from a device, a system may generate a resource list for a group profile (e.g., a household profile) and each user profile (including any guest user profile) associated with the device. Each resource list may include the catalogs of resources (e.g., songs of a playlist, contacts of a contact list, etc.) of the group profile or user profile. The system may also generate a weight matrix including a respective weight for each catalog of each resource list. Various processing components (e.g., an automatic speech recognition component, a natural language understanding component, and an entity resolution component) may process using the resource lists and the weight matrix to determine an output responsive to the user input.
