Contextual Help Recommendations for Conversational Interfaces Based on Interaction Patterns

Abstract:

A mechanism is provided to implement a chatbot application for providing contextual help recommendations based on conversational context and interaction patterns. The chatbot application receives a query from a user and applies natural language processing (NLP) to the query to determine an objective of the query and a confidence of the objective. Responsive to determining the confidence of the objective is below a predetermined threshold, the chatbot application automatically generates a first set of recommendations to the user based on the conversation context and activates a contextual help recommendation button to indicate to the user that the first set of recommendations are available to be viewed.
