  • Patent number: 10872205
    Abstract: An apparatus comprising a memory and a processor configured for semi-autonomous natural language processing domain adaptation related activities. The processor coupled to the memory and configured to identify a corpus of documents of an evaluation domain and generate a first lexicon based on the corpus of documents of the evaluation domain, and determine a threshold that indicates a sufficiency of domain adaptation of the evaluation domain based at least in part on the first lexicon. The processor is further configured to identify a corpus of documents of a client domain, generate a second lexicon based on the corpus of documents of the client domain, determine a metric associated with the corpus of documents of the client domain and the second lexicon, and determine that domain adaptation of the client domain is complete when the metric exceeds the threshold.
