Abstract

A method, apparatus and computer program product for presenting a user interface for a conversational system is described. A unified contextual graph for use by the conversational system, the unified contextual graph comprising components based on database queries of the conversational system and a user dialog between a user and the conversational system. For each of a set of user utterances produced in a dialog with the conversational system, a semantic meaning representation is determined. The semantic meaning representations are converted to respective sentential concept graphs. The unified contextual graph is updated based on new sentential concept graphs while the dialog with the conversational system progresses.
