TRANSFORMATION OF CHAT LOGS FOR CHAT FLOW PREDICTION

Methods and systems for automating user interactions include annotating chat logs to identify user intent in question-answer pairs. A classifier is trained, using the annotated chat log, to identify user intent in automated conversations. Chat flows are formed, using the annotated chat logs, that provide responses to user statements based on identified user intent. An automated conversation is conducted with a user, using the chat flows and the classifier, to provide automated responses to user statements.
