Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer program products for identifying one or more utterances that are likely to carry the intent of a speaker are provided herein. A method includes providing a transcript of utterances to a word weight scoring module to perform inverse document frequency based scoring on each word in the transcript, thereby generating a weight for each word; calculating a weight for each utterance in the transcript to generate weighted utterances by summing the weights or each constituent word in each utterance; comparing at least one weighted utterance to pre-existing example utterances carrying the intent of a speaker to determine a relevancy score for the at least one weighted utterance; and generating a ranked order of the at least one weighted utterance from highest to lowest intent relevancy score, wherein the highest intent relevancy score corresponds to the utterance which is most likely to carry intent of the speaker.
