Mind if I ask how you go about the natural language processsing? Is it using something such as Wit.ai?


Of course. I thought about using wit.ai a few months ago, but I found a lot of issues in how they approach parsing and classification. Specifically, training it is a very manual process, and customization and tweaking is very hard.

I've built my own API which can do entity and language parsing. It relies on utilizing word embeddings (such as those described here: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1310.4546.pdf).


Thank you. Very interesting!
