Chatbot assists users by providing useful responses and not just a conversational system functionalities. The advanced Chatbots such as Siri and Alexa are the results of evolution of different response generation and NLU techniques that have arrived since 1960s. Usually, chatbots are designed to address domain-specific queries; for instance, a medical chatbot requires the user to provide his/her symptoms; in the corporate world, the chatbots designed are mainly for addressing the FAQs asked by their clients/customers. However, state-of-the-art technologies are emerging, and knowledge graph is one of them. The idea of using knowledge graphs is that the data stored in them is linked. The proposed-chatbot addresses the problem of answering factoid questions by retrieving information from knowledge graphs. Initially, the neural machine translation approach was used; however, due to its limitations, keyword extraction approach was adopted for the proposed chatbot. In order to compare the proposed chatbot system with DBpedia metrics, the F-measure quality parameter were used for determining the overall performance of chatbots.KeywordsKnowledge graphSemantic webRASAKeyword extractionNeural machine translationSPARQLDBpedia chatbot

Chatbots are virtual conversation agents that offer innovative features to connect with customers and thus offer a promising avenue to engage customers. Currently many private and nationalized banks are deploying chatbots for connecting and communicating with customers. This technology is expected to dominate the banking sector in the future by improving customer service. However, the success of banking chatbots will be effective when customers are satisfied with the chatbots and engage in using them. To probe in to the question, this study investigates the antecedents and consequences of customer brand engagement in using banking chatbots, with the lens of diffusion of innovation theory. The antecedents include interactivity, time convenience, compatibility, complexity, observability, and trialability. The consequences are satisfaction with the brand experience and customer brand usage intention. The theorized model has been validated with 470 Indian banking chatbot customers usable responses. The results suggest that trialability, compatibility, and interactivity positively influence customer brand engagement through a chatbot, thereby influencing satisfaction with the brand experience and customer brand usage intention. The paper presents theoretical and managerial implications which enable banks to strengthen customer engagement, satisfaction and brand usage intention through chatbots.

A conversational agent, often known as a Chatbot, is computer software that can speak with humans using natural language. In artificial intelligence and natural language processing, conversation modeling is a critical task. Since its beginnings, creating a good chatbot has been the most difficult challenge in artificial intelligence. Although chatbots can do a wide range of tasks, their primary role is to understand and reply to human speech. Previously, basic statistical approaches or handwritten templates and rules were used to create chatbot architectures. Due to their greater learning capabilities, end-to-end neural networks supplanted these models about 2015. Conversation modeling is dominated by the encoder-decoder recurrent model, especially at the moment. This architecture was inspired by the neural machine translation domain, where it performed admirably. Until now, there have been a lot of features and variations. It provides an overview of a chatbot, including what it is, its merits, limitations, and uses. The survey section covers a wide range of topics, including Healthcare, Banking, E-commerce, and Human Resources. We offered a universal theory that explains how all areas may be combined into a single chatbot.
