Computational Linguistics with Deep-Learning-Based Intent Detection for Natural Language Understanding

Computational linguistics explores how human language is interpreted automatically and then processed. Research in this area takes the logical and mathematical features of natural language and advances methods and statistical procedures for automated language processing. Slot filling and intent detection are significant modules in task-based dialogue systems. Intent detection is a critical task in any natural language understanding (NLU) system and constitutes the base of a task-based dialogue system. In order to build high-quality, real-time conversational solutions for edge gadgets, there is a demand for deploying intent-detection methods on devices. This mandates an accurate, lightweight, and fast method that effectively operates in a resource-limited environment. Earlier works have explored the usage of several machine-learning (ML) techniques for detecting intent in user queries. In this article, we propose Computational Linguistics with Deep-Learning-Based Intent Detection and Classification (CL-DLBIDC) for natural language understanding. The presented CL-DLBIDC technique receives word embedding as input and learned meaningful features to determine the probable intention of the user query. In addition, the presented CL-DLBIDC technique uses the GloVe approach. In addition, the CL-DLBIDC technique makes use of the deep learning modified neural network (DLMNN) model for intent detection and classification. For the hyperparameter tuning process, the mayfly optimization (MFO) algorithm was used in this study. The experimental analysis of the CL-DLBIDC method took place under a set of simulations, and the results were scrutinized for distinct aspects. The simulation outcomes demonstrate the significant performance of the CL-DLBIDC algorithm over other DL models.
