Abstract:
The present teaching relates to generating a conversational agent. In one example, a plurality of input utterances may be received from a developer. A paraphrase model is obtained. The paraphrase model is generated based on machine translation. For each of the plurality of input utterances, one or more paraphrases of the input utterance are generated based on the paraphrase model. For each of the plurality of input utterances, at least one of the one or more paraphrases is selected based on an instruction from the developer to generate selected paraphrases. The conversational agent is generated based on the plurality of input utterances and the selected paraphrases.
