MovieMingleBot is an Interactive NLP-based AI system designed to manage cinema bookings and provide a seamless user experience. This bot can handle various queries related to screening times, booking or cancelling tickets, checking the time or weather, and engaging in small talk.
My approach to an Interactive NLP-based AI system revolves around a cinema booking system, called ‘MovieMingleBot’. This system demonstrates methodologies of cosine-similarity and TF-IDF Vectorization for information retrieval, question answering, and intent matching. The chatbot is capable of handling various types of inquiries, enhancing the user experience with clear elements of Conversational Design.
