Examples provide a system for generating document-based responses to user provided queries. The response generation component creates a set of generated utterances based on text associated with a set of sentences in at least one document. Each utterance in the set of generated utterances is assigned an intent. A filter component identifies at least one utterance from the set of generated utterances having a same intent as a user-provided utterance to form a set of filtered utterances. A selection component identifies one or more utterance(s) from the set of filtered utterances having a shortest distance from the user-provided utterance. If more than one utterance is identified, a weighted summarization response is output to the user based on a predefined answer to each utterance in the selected set of utterances.

Document-based response generation system

In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful to forecasting product demand. In some embodiments, a system comprise a forecasting control circuit to: apply each of a plurality of different models to forecast demand of a first product over a first historic period generating historic forecasted demands of the first product, wherein at least a first model uses selected one or more variables that are predicted to have an uncharacteristic effect on predicted demand; select one of the models and apply the model in generating a forecasted future demand, wherein the selection of the model is based on a difference between each of the generated historic forecasted demands and actual sales; and identify actions to modify inventory of the first product at the first shopping facility based on the forecasted future demand.
