Abstract: This paper describes a domain independent, automatically trained natural language call router for directing incoming calls in a call center. Our call router directs customer calls based on their response to an open-ended ``How may I direct your call?'' prompt. Routing behavior is trained from a corpus of transcribed and hand-routed calls and then carried out using vector-based information retrieval techniques. Terms consist of n-gram sequences of morphologically reduced content words, while... (Update)

...(transcriptions of calls routed to that destination) and a new caller request is evaluated in terms of relevance to each destination. [6, 1, 2, 3] The training process involves constructing a routing matrix R. Each document (customer utterances within a caller session) is...
.... Automatic construction of the IE component for the movie showtime domain has been explored, using vector based classification [2] with some success. In general, this kind of approach is desirable, since it is easily reusable and potentially very robust and accurate,...
