INCLUDING STATISTICAL NLU MODELS WITHIN A STATISTICAL PARSER

A method and system for statistical parsing. The method involves a series of steps. The system can apply a statistical natural language understanding (NLU) model to test input for identifying substrings within the text input. The statistical NLU model can be selected for identifying a particular class of substring. The system can examine each identified substring using an inventory of queries corresponding to the reusable statistical NLU model.
