Abstract:
As the world nears a total technological immersion, information becomes a commodity which is transferred rapidly from one body to another. One essential source of information is “blogs,” or weblogs, which contain consumer opinions and reviews for products. In order to access and document this colossal database of knowledge, one must use tags and keywords to return user queries. Through the use of artificial intelligence, voice recognition, and graphical simulations, one is able to create a life-like agent, which takes a user’s input and analyzes the internet for relevant topics and other useful information. We assisted in the development of such a model through software/hardware configuration, and lexicon creation for entity detection.
