AI/ML Project Chatbot: "Rudhran"

Project Overview

This repository contains Python-based an AI assistant or a Chatbot named "Rudhran." This Chat bot is vitrual helping agent that is designed as a base level project to help in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning domains. The main back bone of this project is Natural Language Processing (NLPs), which comprehends and processes user's queries related to the Artificial Intelligence domain and responds accurately to it.

Rather than depending on keyword-based responses, the system works on Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) vectorization and Cosine Similarity to gather the most mathematically relevant/Emphasised from the knowledge base.

Key Features

• Dynamic Corpus Generation: The script is completely self-contained, it states that it doesn't require any additional files to be installed to run the program. When initialized it creates it own chatbot.txt database where the data is present, avoiding the file not found errors.
• Hybrid Architecture: The chatbot is incorporated by a less weighted, rule-based system for general social etiquette and a heavier, more complex machine learning model for domain-specific inquiries.
• Sophisticated Text Processing: It utilizes the Natural Language Toolkit library for rigorous text processing, including punctuation stripping, tokenization, and WordNet lemmatization.
• Intelligent Fallback: The system automatically recognizes if the a user’s input is not present within its training data and it responds with a friendly check on message "I'm sorry, I don't understand you" rather than providing an inappropriate answer.
