Abstract

Chatbots and conversational technologies have turned into a popular study topic, and many firms are beginning to use them to fulfil simple communication roles. Business organizations may rapidly and easily design their own systems using a wide range of accessible frameworks for chat-bot development from software behemoths. However, these platforms frequently lack a comprehensive set of tools for creating a controllable, flexible, and robust chatbot.As a result, extra machine learning mechanisms are typically required to boost performance. In this research, we show how a chatbot system can respond to frequently asked questions (FAQs) from our institution's website using machine learning. To deal with extensive and sophisticated user questions, the system incorporates several forms of user inquiries as well as a vector similarity analysis component. Furthermore, Google's Dialog Flow framework 1 is employed for the purpose of identification.
