Abstract

A computer-implemented method of executing a virtual agent bot includes receiving, via a computer server, at least one input query from a user, and analyzing the at least one input query to extract at least one input term. The method further comprises determining a semantic skill set of the virtual agent bot among a plurality of different candidate skill sets based at least in part on the at least one input term; and invoking the virtual agent bot to provide a semantic topic response corresponding to the semantic skill set to provide an answer to the at least one input query.
