Abstract

A mechanism is provided to implement suggestion of new entity types with discriminative importance analysis. The mechanism obtains a list of predefined intents from a chatbot designer. The mechanism receives an input sentence having a target intent within the list of predefined intents. The mechanism performs intent-specific importance analysis on the input sentence to generate an importance score for each token in the input sentence. The mechanism ranks the tokens in the input sentence by importance score and outputs a token with a highest importance score as a candidate entity type.
