PART A – Micro-Project Proposal

chatbot
1.0 Brief Introduction
A chatbot is a software application that can simulate human-like online conversations with a user. In
this tutorial, we are going to build a simple chatbot that provides real-time responses to some
common questions. It also answers with a fallback message when an unaccounted question is asked.
Chatbots are computer programs that can maintain a conversation with a user in natural language,
understanding their intent, and replying based on preset rules and data. Designed to convincingly
simulate the way a human would behave as a conversational partner, chatbot systems typically
require continuous tuning and testing with many in production unable to adequately converse; in
2012 none of them could pass the standard Turing test. The term "Chatterbot" was originally coined
by Michael Mauldin (creator of the first Verdot) in 1994 to describe these conversational programs.
2.0 Aim of the Micro-Project
This Micro-Project aims at:
a) Chatbots allow businesses to connect with customers in a personal way without the expense
of human representatives.
b) The purpose of chatbots is to provide an automated way for people to communicate with your
company.
3.0 Intended Course Outcome
a) develop program using control statement.
b) perform database operations in PHP.

4.0 Literature Review

(Existing status, knowledge about chosen task summarized from books, internet and
other sources in about 200 to 400)
Chatbots are intelligent conversational computer systems designed to mimic human conversation to
enable automated online guidance and support. The increased benefits of chatbots led to their wide
adoption by many industries in order to provide virtual assistance to customers. Chatbots utilize
methods and algorithms from two Artificial Intelligence domains: Natural Language Processing and
Machine Learning. However, there are many challenges and limitations in their application. In this
survey we review recent advances on chatbots, where Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language
processing are used. We highlight the main challenges and limitations of current work and make
recommendations for future research investigation
Chatbots are intelligent conversational computer programs that mimic human conversation in its
natural form [1,2,3]. A chatbot can process user input and produce an output [4,5]. Usually, chatbots

4
take natural language text as input, and the output should be the most relevant output to the user input
sentence. Chatbots can also be defined as “online human-computer dialogue system(s) with natural
language” [6]. Chatbots constitute therefore an automated dialogue system, that can attend to
thousands of potential users at once.
Chatbots are used in dialog systems for various purposes including customer service, request routing, or
information gathering. While some chatbot applications use extensive word-classification processes, natural-
language processors, and sophisticated AI, others simply scan for general keywords and generate responses using
common phrases obtained from an associated library or database.
Most chatbots are accessed on-line via website popups or through virtual assistants. They can be classified into
usage categories that include: commerce (e-commerce via chat), education, entertainment, finance, health, news,
and productivity

Chatbot
1.0 Rationale
(Importance of the project, in about 100 to 200 words. This is a modified version of the
proposal after the work)
A chatbot or chatterbot is a software application used to conduct an online chat conversation via text
or text-to-speech, in lieu of providing direct contact with a live human agent.
A chatbot is a software application that can simulate human-like online conversations with a user. In
this tutorial, we are going to build a simple chatbot that provides real-time responses to some
common questions. It also answers with a fallback message when an unaccounted question is asked.
Chatbots are computer programs that are capable of maintaining a conversation with a user in natural language,
understanding their intent, and replying based on preset rules and data. Designed to convincingly simulate the way a

describe these conversational programs.

2.0 Course Outcomes Addressed

a) develop program using control statement.
b) perform database operations in PHP.

7.0 Skill Developed / learning out of this Micro-Project
(in about 50 to 100 words)
A chatbot is the user interface of a given chat application. Here in this project we developed
some skill about how to develop chatbot and give functions required to the user need.
We also come to know about my sql database handling.

8.0 Applications of this Micro-Project

(in about 50 to 100 words)
The following are the applications of chatbot:
a. Messaging apps
b. Company internal platforms
c. Customer service
d. Healthcare

12
 e. Politics
f. Toys
9.0 Area of Future Improvement
The future of chatbots is that businesses will automate simple payments and allow users to pay
directly over live chat or Facebook Messenger apps. The instant process makes the customer happy
and improves customer satisfaction.
Chatbots are increasingly present in businesses and often are used to automate tasks that do not require skill-based
talents. With customer service taking place via messaging apps as well as phone calls, there are growing numbers of
use-cases where chatbot deployment gives organizations a clear return on investment. Call center workers may be
particularly at risk from AI-driven chatbots.
Unclear scope of the chatbot and/or too broad purposes of its utilization. ...
Setting unrealistic expectations is often the reason why chatbots fail. ...
Lack of customer perspective in building the chatbot.
