Abstract:
Systems of the present disclosure generate database queries for financial information requested in a natural-language form. A natural-language processing (NLP) financial aggregator receives a request for financial information and extracts NLP features of the request, including keywords. The NLP financial aggregator determines a type of the request based on the features and creates a query in a database-query language for the financial information based on the type and on the features. The NLP financial aggregator submits the query to a database where the financial information is stored. The software then receives the financial information from the database and sends the information to the user.
