Hi guys,
for my app Aware, I have decided that it would be best if I used a natural langauge parser. How do these work? And how would I implement in in CC. It does not have to be complicated, and it is OK if it only supports correct gramar.
Tanks in advance,
Creator
PS: Aware is like Siri, but a little less advanced.

Does anyone put something serious here?

You might want to have a look at
NLTK. Its written in python but I've used it in the past for some things. Basically it is driven by a
load of data. I mean a LOT of data. I'd have a look through some of the code, it shouldn't be too complicated to port the key bits to Lua.

Yeah, but is there not a simplified algorithm for this, like several thuosand line, but no more. The data could be stored in github, so that should not be a problem. What I want to know is how it works.

Read the source Luke. Its pretty well documented and it comes with an
online book which guides you through everything from the basics to pretty complicated stuff. You'd be surprised how much you can learn just by reading other people's code.

Thank you, I'll do that when I get some time.

It may be best to offload the actual NLP part to an online NLP parser.
For example.

Is what you mean that the app should send the string to the online parser and then get the result online, so there is no actual parsing done by Aware?

Well, the online parser won't do anything beyond "tree"-ifying the sentence. You'll still have to do the rest.
Here's a simple proof-of-concept I threw together using the
JSON API and the HTTP API, and the aforementioned online NLP parser:
