What is NLP ?

• Natural language processing (NLP) is a subfield
  of artificial intelligence and computational
  linguistics.
•  
• The goal of the Natural Language Processing
  (NLP)  is to design and build software that will
  analyze, understand, and generate languages that
  humans use naturally, so that eventually you will
  be able to address your application as though you
  were addressing another person.

Alabot ...Who is she?

• We realized human conversation are dynamic and
  you cant have generic statements to give
  relevant replies.
•  
• Also you need to take decisions (does a customer
  qualify for a discount?) on the fly.
•  
• Alabots algorithm custom solution (GFA) which
  consists  of rule engine , NLP engine and parser
  , helper API hooks  etc understands these queries
  and smoothens the process .
•  
• Ala was designed to work as Rapid Application
  development platform , one can put all business
  rules and configure NLP and phonetic engine  and
  you can have an application running in matter
  matter days or few weeks  in all connected 
  mediums.

The basic sentence being When is the Churchgate
/ Kandivili local coming?   The rest are
iterations of the same sentence which Alabots GFA
engine will comprehend.   Aft / Morn Denotes
time of day (afternoon or morning)   These are
live user tests done on gtalk. We have entered
wrong spellings for cities and also jumbled up
the order of buying the ticket to make the tests
more life like. Questions like these will be
thrown at Ala in the real world.
