For each intent associated with a feature in a discordant conversation, one or more preceding discordant user utterances and one or more following discordant user utterances are collected. A discordant distribution over terms of the one or more preceding discordant user utterances and the one or more following discordant user utterances is created. For each intent associated with a feature in a non-discordant conversation, one or more preceding non-discordant user utterances and one or more following non-discordant user utterances are collected. A non-discordant distribution over terms of the one or more preceding non-discordant user utterances and the one or more following non-discordant user utterances is created. The discordant and non-discordant distributions are compared and the top-k terms that are most specific to user utterances associated with the corresponding discordance feature using Kullback-Leibler divergence are determined. An intent dominancy score is generated to provide an analytical view of the discordant conversation.
