This project covers several areas of research and development such as data storage and retrieval, domain analytics specification, natural language conversational modelling and query transformation. Prospective collaborators include dashboard solution providers, HPC centers and relevant interested parties.

1. Interfacing Chatbot
with Data Retrieval
and Analytics

2. Data Retrieval

3. Decision Making

4. Analytics Queries
What is the total articles published in the 1st quarter?
Who published the most?
What are the popular research areas?
Please compare the citations for year 2017 and the year before.
Is there a correlation between the
number of articles published and
the number of supervised students?

5. Chatbot

6. “total articles published in the 1st quarter?"
// generate a corresponding intermediate object with
the following contents
intent: count (from keyword “total")
target entity: article
constraint entity: date
constraint entity values: january, february, march
// from the object, SQL processing engine will
generate a query as following
SELECT article’, COUNT(article') FROM
PUBLICATIONS
WHERE ‘date' = “jan” or ‘date' = “feb” or
‘date’=“mar”;

10. Making research industry relevant
(Train industry relevant graduates)
Turning research into production
(How is it possible from academic setting?)
Probably a good collaboration setting will help …
