Extracting domain-specific actions and entities in natural language commands recognized based on edition and recognition scores

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to processing domain-specific natural language commands. An example method generally includes receiving a natural language command. A command processor compares the received natural language command to a corpus of known commands to identify a probable matching command to the received natural language command, wherein the matching is based on an edition error and a recognition error. The corpus of known commands comprises a plurality of domain-specific commands, each of which is mapped to one or more domain-specific entities. Based on the comparison, the command processor identifies one or more entities in the received natural language command to perform an action on based on the mapping of the one or more domain-specific entities in the probable matching command and executes a domain-specific action included in the natural language command on the identified entity.
