Abstract
The disclosed system addresses a technical problem tied to computer technology and arising in the realm of computer memory capacity, namely the technical problem of providing a flexible response dialogue system that can be utilised for a variety of different types of dialogue without requiring the system to be specifically trained for each situation. This therefore avoids the need for large amounts of labelled training data for each type of dialogue (each potential conversation flow or subject area for the conversation). The disclosed system solves this technical problem by using semantic similarity to match a user's input to one of a set of predefined inputs (predefined user responses). Various mechanisms are implemented to provide disambiguation in the event of multiple potential matches for the input. By using semantic similarity, the user's response in unconstrained. This therefore provides a user interface that is more user-friendly.
