Re: [FWP] Natural language processing




Everybody picked the "cheap fare" example.  I may be missing
something obvious, but perhaps the "cheap" qualifier is    
redundant, as you'll never have someone ask for "costly
fare" or "average-priced fare."  Kingpin's stop words
example can then be boiled down to

air fare
air fare Chicago Orlando
airline ticket

Throwing full NLP at the query may not be necessary if
we can parse it with static keywords early in the process.
The user can then be presented with "Is this what you
mean?" type choices, based on those keywords.  If the
keywords didn't match, or if the user declines all the
choices, then NLP can be applied.
