Method, Computer Program, and System for Processing of Natural Language

A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a device to cause the device to:

• a. receive a natural language text input;
• b perform natural language processing on the natural language text input to generate a plurality of encoded question tokens;
• c. perform natural language processing on a plurality of table schema stored in a database, to generate a plurality of encoded table schema tokens for each table schema of the plurality of table schema;
• d. determine a similarity between the plurality of encoded question tokens and the plurality of encoded table schema tokens for at least two table schemas of the plurality of table schema;
• e. determine an output table schema from the plurality of table schema based on the similarity;
• and
• f. output a natural language string based on the output table schema.

A system comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor operably coupled to the memory and configured for:
• a. receiving (110) a natural language text input;
• b performing (120) natural language processing on the natural language text input to generate a plurality of encoded question tokens;
• c. performing (130) natural language processing on a plurality of table schema stored in a database, to generate a plurality of encoded table schema tokens for each table schema of the plurality of table schema;
• d. determining (140) a similarity between the plurality of encoded question tokens and the plurality of encoded table schema tokens for at least two table schemas of the plurality of table schema;
• e. determining (150) an output table schema from the plurality of table schema based on the similarity;
• and
• f outputting (160) a natural language string based on the output table schema
