Infrequently Asked Question (IFAQ) classification and answering #20

Open e-tornike opened 4 years ago

e-tornike commented 4 years ago

Many people have specific information needs, which may not be answered in FAQs (e.g. "How many people are infected with Corona in Berlin?").

A possible first step would be to classify the intent of the question (w/ Rasa or DeepPavlov).

Afterwards, slot filling can be used to extract semantic concepts (w/ Rasa or DeepPavlov).

The information can then be converted into database queries (e.g. COVID-19, Coronavirus Tracker API, Coronazaehler).

Extra: The result may be formatted for different intents.

I also talked to "Tobias Röddiger" who created this website: https://www.coronazaehler.de/

Maybe he can create an API for this data? As far as I understood him he collects the sources manually as well (there are csv files on official German sites with statistics...)

Yeah, that's definitely more detailed. An API would be great!

Any news on a possible API?
