Abstract
A contextual natural language query response system (contextual system) leverages contextual attribute-identifier mappings to improve large language model (LLM) responses to natural language queries. The contextual system replaces identifiers in natural language queries with attributes according to a contextual mapping table between identifiers and attributes to generate attribute-based natural language queries. The contextual system then uses retrieval-augmented generation with the attributes-based natural language queries to prompt an LLM to generate attribute-based database queries. The contextual system uses the mappings from the contextual mapping table to convert the attribute-based database queries to identifier-based database queries and queries a database with the identifier-based database queries. The contextual system responses to the natural language queries using results from querying the database.
