Intent Matching is the process by which AI analyzes a query to identify the user's intention and provide the most relevant response.
What is Intent Matching?
Intent Matching is the process by which AI systems analyze a user query to identify its actual intention and select the most appropriate response.
How does Intent Matching work?
The process includes several steps:
- Semantic analysis: Understanding word and sentence meaning
- Intent classification: Categorizing the query (information, action, navigation)
- Entity extraction: Identifying key elements (brand, product, location)
- Contextualization: Considering history and context
