Aprimore os helpdesks do cliente com o Smart Document Understanding usando a habilidade de pesquisa do Watson Assistant

Resumo

In this developer code pattern, we use the typical customer care chatbot experience, but instead of relying on predefined responses the dialog provides a hook that can call out to other IBM® Watson™ services for additional sources of information. In this case, it’s an owners manual that has been uploaded to Watson Discovery.

NOTE: This code pattern includes instructions for accessing Watson services running on both IBM Cloud e na IBM Cloud Pak para Dados.

Descrição

The typical customer care chatbot can answer simple questions, such as store locations, hours, and directions, and maybe even make appointments. When a question falls outside of the scope of the pre-determined question set, the option is typically to tell the customer that the question isn’t valid or offer to speak to a real person.

In this code pattern, we provide another option. If the customer question is about the operation of a device, we use the search skill feature of Watson Assistant to pass the question on to the Watson Discovery service, which has been pre-loaded with the device’s owners manual. So now, instead of “Would you like to speak to a customer representative?,” we can return relevant sections of the owners manual to help solve the customers’ problems.

To take it a step further, we use the Smart Document Understanding feature of Watson Discovery to train it on what text in the owners manual is important and what is not. This improves the answers returned from the queries.

Em resumo, este padrão de código irá:

• Crie uma habilidade de diálogo de atendimento ao cliente no Watson Assistant
• Use o Smart Document Understanding para construir uma coleção aprimorada do Watson Discovery
• Create a Watson Assistant search skill that allows the Assistant dialog to post queries to Watson Discovery

Fluxo

1. The document is annotated by using Watson Discovery SDU.
2. The user interacts with the back-end server through the app UI. The front-end app UI is a chatbot that engages the user in a conversation.
3. O diálogo entre o usuário e o servidor backend é coordenado usando uma habilidade de diálogo do Watson Assistant.
4. If the user asks a product operation question, a search query is issued to the Watson Discovery service through a Watson Assistant search skill.
