Crowd sourced based training for natural language interface systems

Abstract:

A crowdsourcing based community platform includes a natural language configuration system that predicts a user's desired function call based on a natural language input (speech or text). The system provides a collaboration platform to configure and optimize quickly natural language systems to leverage the work and data of other developers, thus minimizing the time and data required to improve the quality and accuracy of one single system and providing a network effect to reach quickly critical mass of data. An application developer can provide training data for training a model specific to the developer's application. The developer can also obtain training data by forking one or more other applications so that the training data provided for the forked applications is used to train the model for the developer's application.
