Abstract

The combination of commercial development and artificial intelligence services becomes more and more important. Chatbot is considered one of the effective techniques by using information retrieval (IR) and natural language processing (NLP). In this paper, we collect a series of business-promoted chat data and conduct a series of cleanup and classification of these data sets. Since the speech of different people is random, the similarity is calculated by using a combination of the retrieval model and the generated model, and then the final answer is generated using long-short term memory (LSTM) training and prediction. Finally, we use the TF-IDF weighting method to improve the dialog. Experimental results show that the proposed method can communicate with humans and answer real-time questions.
