Natural Language Processing

Explore the challenges and solutions of Natural Language Interfaces (NLI), focusing on Menu-Based NLI (MBNLI). Learn about predictive menus guiding users to accurate sentences and the dynamic composition of interfaces in this comprehensive overview of MBNLI. Discover the LingoLogic architecture, agent control, and applications like database querying. Consider the scalability of grammars and the importance of predictive parsing in NLI.
