DISTRIBUTED NLU/NLP

摘要

An arrangement and corresponding method are described for distributed natural language processing. A set of local data sources is stored on a mobile device. A local natural language understanding (NLU) match module on the mobile device performs natural language processing of a natural language input with respect to the local data sources to determine one or more local interpretation candidates. A local NLU ranking module on the mobile device processes the local interpretation candidates and one or more remote interpretation candidates from a remote NLU server to determine a final output interpretation corresponding to the natural language input.
