Allow the confidence threshold criteria for disambiguation to be configurable

Currently WA (premium) uses a calculation of confidence within 55% of top intent for disambiguation candidates. This is too sensitive for some training sets (the range increases with higher confidence levels, triggering disambiguation more often t...

Common Pattern Nodes

Add the possibility to jump to common pattern nodes/node groups (e. g. "Please enter your customer number/adress/phone number") from anywhere in the dialog flow and dynamically jump back, based on where you came from. This could speed up dialog de...

disable dialog node

One of the issues i have when i test things out is i often need to delete a dialog node to verify if something works. Deleting a dialog node with a lot of configurations such as conditional checks, detailed answer, jump to conditions etc is making...

Enhance Watson Assistant Entity Recognition

As a recommendation for a future upgrade, it would help if IBM could enhance the ability of Watson Assistant to recognize Entities using machine learning (sort of like Intents are recognized) such that an Entity of "arm pain" with synonyms like "s...

Ability to configure one entity as a synonym for another entity

This will enable configuring WA entities with less effort. There are scenarios where one entity and all its synonyms can be applied to another entity with additional synonyms (Mostly in a hierarchical entity model). As of now we have to manually c...

Possibillity to boost input messages towards a intent/entity

We have an idea where it would be good to be able to boost confidence towards a special intent. Like if we have a general chat, but we know that it's more likely to be a question that concerns x, so that even if a posted question is very vauge, it...

Watson Conversation - loops for dialog responses

AFAIK, the expression language does not allow looping through data. I a conversation, you often have the situation that multiple entities are recognized. You can easily create a response for one recognized entity. But you may want to loop through ...

Confidence fine tuning for intent/entity detection

In order to make sure that specific intent/entity is detected instead of another one less important we want to fine tune the confidence level for each individual intent/entity. Some of the intents/entities could have a more restrained dataset, hen...

Increase the number of possible annotation

We have a dataset containing a "business-object" entity that can have different possible values which has about 13880 annotations in different intent samples. This object will allow to detect the leave request/spot award/cost center/personal detai...
