Patent US 9,720,903

A parser for natural language text is provided. The parser is trained by accessing a corpus of labeled utterances. The parser extracts details of the syntactic tree structures and part of speech tags from the labeled utterances. The details extracted from the tree structures include Simple Links which are the key to the improved efficiency of this new approach. The parser creates a language model using the details that were extracted from the corpus. The parser then uses the language model to parse utterances.
