Natural language understanding

Natural language understanding (NLU) or natural language interpretation (NLI)[1] is a subset of natural language processing in artificial intelligence that deals with machine reading comprehension. NLU has been considered an AI-hard problem.[2]

There is considerable commercial interest in the field because of its application to automated reasoning,[3] machine translation,[4] question answering,[5] news-gathering, text categorization, voice-activation, archiving, and large-scale content analysis.
