Abstract

An embodiment for domain model driven processing of dialog system inputs including ambiguous intents. The embodiment may receive a dialog system input for processing by a dialog system. The embodiment may identify a series of ambiguous intents within the received dialog system input. The embodiment may, in response to identifying the series of ambiguous intents, determine, based on an accessible domain model, one or more relevant annotated themes corresponding to each individual intent within the series of ambiguous intents. The embodiment may execute, using the dialog system, a dialog corresponding to the received dialog system input by employing a set of generic rules, wherein the set of generic rules leverage the identified relevant annotated themes.
