Surely the answers depend on what the questions are, or am I missing something?

Hi,

I have the question.
I saw on Google that it has a suggestion list. So I donwload it and I need the answer (I download the "why" and "how" questions list) But alone, I will never finish it! So I need some people to help me to finish my Open Source ChatBot.

Thanks

Alexia

Still, it would help if you first of all were more specific/clear and secondly provide us with the "google results". No one has a clue what you are talking about.

Hi unihiekka,

Sorry for my english...

Do you know Google Suggest? It gives all question that user wrote on Google.

I donwloaded them for the Open Source chatbot, si I know exactly what they search.
Here are my questions : http://msn.bloque.free.fr/keywords_en.txt

Help will be great for me, because they are more than 2000 questions, so alone I can't do it.

So you will tell me, "but, some questions are strange like '1 what are'" Yes, the chatbot can anwser "I don't know" or "May a full sentence"

Thanks

What language is your chatbot written in? Do you have somewhere that the code can be downloaded? Is it using AIML or something similar to process the language? I maintain an older chatbopt written in C, that uses a simplified form of AIML to process natural language. Is your chatbot supposed to answer arbitrarily, or does it choose the 'right' answer based on a random choice, a 'weighted' response or what?
Pleas post a link to the code, or give me your e-mail and I 'll try the code out -unless it's written in java or some other god-forsaken language...

My program is written in C++, the code can't be download now because it has some bug to be fixed and I need the database (Questions/Answers). It doesn't use AIML. It is use keyword (that's why I have the list of questions).
So now, I must write the answer and I ask help to write the answer.

Thanks

The link to the questions is missing, but hey I know the answer will be 42 if thats any help, p.s. send more fish please!

I picked up a cheap copy of Finite-state Language Processing (Language, Speech & Communication) recently, but after doing a little research on gnashley's inference (AIML), i've got to say, why reinvent the wheel, develop / join one of those...

Cheers

Hi,

Yes, sorry, it is ok now. WOuld you help me to complete the answers for my chatbot?
You will may be say "What 'does how to get the f' mean?" Yes, sorry, but that is what somebody wrote it on Google. I only downloaded Google "how to" suggestion list. If you find some phrase like that, just answer "\I don't know"

Thanks

Yes it is (mind boggling).

Earlier I looked into some of the links from the wiki and downloaded a php version:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...group_id=43190

In here is an xml that has questions and answers, links to previously answered answers and much more, all based upon an AIML engine. It's a very interesting way of tackling the subject and could provide you with a full db?

Hi Brazilnut,

Thanks for this db, I will add it into the database for my chatbot. Now I am searching voluntary for answer all the questions that I put on the server.

Thanks

A lot of them are not full questions but more like modeless questions, so the answers are built up by deciding upon other factors. If you look through that other db and read the docs, it'll become more apparent...

Yes I know that the question from the server are not so good, that's why I saied if you think that the question are strange, just answer "I don't know". (Remember that the questions are from people who use Google, because I downloaded this list from Google). The chatbot has to know lot of questions. That's why, all type of questions are important.
But if you have any other Questions/Answers or quiz (for the bot general knowledge) please tell me. I already downloaded Alice brain to add it on the chatbot.

Thanks

Alexia
