SOCIAL AUTONOMOUS AGENT IMPLEMENTATION USING LATTICE QUERIES AND RELEVANCY DETECTION

Techniques for computer-generated conversation are disclosed. In an example, a method identifies text postings from a conversation. The method creates, for each text fragment of each text posting, a syntactic tree and a discourse tree. The method creates parse thickets, each parse thicket including the syntactic tree and discourse tree of a unique pair of text postings. The method extracts, from each parse thicket, a common text segment and obtains a set of candidate search results by providing the common text segments to a search engine. The candidate search results can be further refined for relevancy and mental state and posted as a response to a conversation.
