The Chatbot Revolution
The chatbot revolution Moving beyond the hype and maximizing customer experience Ready for a digital 2% 2017 conversation? 25% 2020 Consumers have higher expectations than ever when it comes to interacting with brands. By 2020, 25% of customer They demand personalized service, easily accessible support options, a quick response after reaching out, and successful resolutions on a tight turnaround. service operations will use To meet these needs, companies are increasing their use of digital channels to chatbot or virtual assistant communicate with customers – in fact, by 2022, 70% of all customer interactions will involve technology like messaging applications, social platforms, or chatbots. technologies, an increase Let’s take a closer look at chatbots. Their functions range from answering simple from just 2% in 2017. questions like informing customers of store hours or location to more advanced ones, like handling a credit card charge dispute. According to Gartner, by 2020, 25% of customer service operations will use chatbot or virtual assistant technologies, an increase from just 2% in 2017. When trying to balance staffing budgets, round- the-clock service availability and a preference for digital platforms, chatbots on paper seem like the obvious – and inevitable – choice to engage customers through automation. But how inevitable is it really? 1. Gartner Magic Quadrant for Customer Engagement Center, Michael Maoz, Brian Manusama, 16 May 2018 www.pega.com The chatbot revolution 01 Why the digital hold up? Consumers and businesses have concerns. Despite Gartner predictions and the obvious excitement around chatbots, overall adoption has been slow. Currently most chatbots are programmed to follow predetermined conversational flows—thus limiting their usefulness for solving complex problems or picking up conversational subtleties. -
Automatic Correction of Real-Word Errors in Spanish Clinical Texts
sensors Article Automatic Correction of Real-Word Errors in Spanish Clinical Texts Daniel Bravo-Candel 1,Jésica López-Hernández 1, José Antonio García-Díaz 1 , Fernando Molina-Molina 2 and Francisco García-Sánchez 1,* 1 Department of Informatics and Systems, Faculty of Computer Science, Campus de Espinardo, University of Murcia, 30100 Murcia, Spain; [email protected] (D.B.-C.); [email protected] (J.L.-H.); [email protected] (J.A.G.-D.) 2 VÓCALI Sistemas Inteligentes S.L., 30100 Murcia, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-86888-8107 Abstract: Real-word errors are characterized by being actual terms in the dictionary. By providing context, real-word errors are detected. Traditional methods to detect and correct such errors are mostly based on counting the frequency of short word sequences in a corpus. Then, the probability of a word being a real-word error is computed. On the other hand, state-of-the-art approaches make use of deep learning models to learn context by extracting semantic features from text. In this work, a deep learning model were implemented for correcting real-word errors in clinical text. Specifically, a Seq2seq Neural Machine Translation Model mapped erroneous sentences to correct them. For that, different types of error were generated in correct sentences by using rules. Different Seq2seq models were trained and evaluated on two corpora: the Wikicorpus and a collection of three clinical datasets. The medicine corpus was much smaller than the Wikicorpus due to privacy issues when dealing Citation: Bravo-Candel, D.; López-Hernández, J.; García-Díaz, with patient information. -

For e.g., to read a sign board in a different extraction of text from image or videos, etc. There is no app or language, the first step is to extract text from that image and a website where a user can get all these functions/features at translate it to any respective language as required. Hence, to one place and hence the user is forced to install different apps do this one has to switch from application to application or visit different websites to carry out those functions. The which can be time consuming. To overcome this problem, proposed system identifies this problem and tries to overcome an integrated environment is built where all these it by providing various text-based features at one place, so that functionalities are available. the user will not have to hop from app to app or website to website to carry out various functions. -

MULTILINGUAL CHATBOT with HUMAN CONVERSATIONAL ABILITY [1] Aradhana Bisht, [2] Gopan Doshi, [3] Bhavna Arora, [4] Suvarna Pansambal [1][2] Student, Dept
International Journal of Future Generation Communication and Networking Vol. 13, No. 1s, (2020), pp. 138- 146 MULTILINGUAL CHATBOT WITH HUMAN CONVERSATIONAL ABILITY [1] Aradhana Bisht, [2] Gopan Doshi, [3] Bhavna Arora, [4] Suvarna Pansambal [1][2] Student, Dept. of Computer Engineering,[3][4] Asst. Prof., Dept. of Computer Engineering, Atharva College of Engineering, Mumbai, India Abstract Chatbots - The chatbot technology has become very fascinating to people around the globe because of its ability to communicate with humans. They respond to the user query and are sometimes capable of executing sundry tasks. Its implementation is easier because of wide availability of development platforms and language libraries. Most of the chatbots support English language only and very few have the skill to communicate in multiple languages. In this paper we are proposing an idea to build a chatbot that can communicate in as many languages as google translator supports and also the chatbot will be capable of doing humanly conversation. This can be done by using various technologies such as Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques, Sequence To Sequence Modeling with encoder decoder architecture[12]. We aim to build a chatbot which will be like virtual assistant and will have the ability to have conversations more like human to human rather than human to bot and will also be able to communicate in multiple languages. Keywords: Chatbot, Multilingual, Communication, Human Conversational, Virtual agent, NLP, GNMT. 1. Introduction A chatbot is a virtual agent for conversation, which is capable of answering user queries in the form of text or speech. In other words, a chatbot is a software application/program that can chat with a user on any topic[5]. -

Just as people use language standards like XML [1]. for human communication, chatbots use natural language to communicate with human users. In this paper, we begin by In our project we are using AIML. AIML is an XML- introducing chatbots and emphasize their need in day-to-day based language which can be used for interaction between activities. Then we go on to discuss existing chatbot systems, chatbots and humans. The atomic unit in AIML is category, namely ELIZA, ALICE and Siri. We evaluate what we can take which consists of attributes called as pattern and template. from each of the systems and use in our proposed system. We are also using a speech to text/text to speech recognition Finally, we discuss the proposed system. The system we intend to develop can be used for educating the user about sports. The to recognize the Indian accent more efficiently. While database will be fed with sports related data which will be constructing the soundbase of the chatbot, the following can coded using AIML. This system can be used in operating help heighten its speech recognition rate: the soundbase systems in a similar manner to Siri for effective information should be built to match user speech input based on retrieval just by speaking various queries.
