Abstract: Aspects described herein provide quality assurance checks for improving the construction of natural language understanding grammars. An annotation module may obtain a set of annotations for a set of text samples based, at least in part, on an ontology and a grammar. A quality assurance module may automatically perform one or more quality assurance checks on the set of annotations, the ontology, the grammar, or combinations thereof. The quality assurance module may generate a list of flagged annotations during performance of a quality assurance check. The list of flagged annotations may be presented at an annotation review interface displayed at a display device. One of the flagged annotations may be selected and presented at an annotation interface displayed at the display device. Responsive to presentation of the flagged annotation, the ontology, the grammar, the flagged annotation selected, or combinations thereof may be updated based on user input received.

Abstract: Techniques for grouping a plurality of samples automatically transcribed from a plurality of utterances. The method comprises forming clusters from the plurality of samples, wherein the clusters include two or more of the plurality of samples. One or more samples are selected from a cluster and manually-processed data samples for the one or more samples are obtained. A weighting factor may be assigned to the data samples based, at least in part, on the number of samples in the cluster associated with the selected data sample.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method is described for developing query tags for classification of user queries to a call routing application. Multiple user query corpuses are accessed that contain user queries from multiple call routing applications in multiple different vertical domains. A set of frequent user queries are selected which appear in multiple different query corpuses in multiple different vertical domains. From these are developed frequent query tags for semantic classification of the frequent user queries. The frequent query tags are then stored in a query tag database.
