A Framework for Building a Natural Language Interface for Bangla

摘要

Mobile Computing Devices are enabling connection between people and the Internet, largest source of information in the world. However to properly utilize this knowledge in these devices most people need a Natural Language Interface. Siri, Google Now, Cortana are examples of such interfaces. Because Bangla is a low resource language building such interface is very difficult and time consuming. However due to the increasing numbers of smart phone and smart device users in the Bangla speaking regions, application developers are facing the need for such interfaces to provide web services effectively. This paper addresses this issue and gives an empirical framework on how to build a feasible Natural Language Interface in Bangla and similar low resource languages.
