System and methods for semiautomatic generation and tuning of natural language interaction applications
TLDR
In this paper, a system for automatic code generation and tuning for natural language interaction applications, comprising a build environment comprising a developer user interface, automated coding tools, automated testing tools and automated optimization tools, and an analytics framework software module.Abstract:
A system for supervised automatic code generation and tuning for natural language interaction applications, comprising a build environment comprising a developer user interface, automated coding tools, automated testing tools, and automated optimization tools, and an analytics framework software module. Text samples are imported into the build environment and automated clustering is performed to assign them to a plurality of input groups, each input group comprising a plurality of semantically related inputs. Language recognition rules are generated by automated coding tools. Automated testing tools carry out automated testing of language recognition rules and generate recommendations for tuning language recognition rules. The analytics framework performs analysis of interaction log files to identify problems in a candidate natural language interaction application. Optimizations to the candidate natural language interaction application are carried out and an optimized natural language interaction application is deployed into production and stored in the solution data repository.read more
