Open Data Chatbot
This addresses the challenge of making government data more accessible to citizens, but it appears incremental as it applies existing chatbot methods to a new domain.
The paper tackled the problem of helping non-expert users find and discover open government datasets by combining chatbots and Open Data, resulting in a dialogue-based interface for improved accessibility.
Recently, chatbots received an increased attention from industry and diverse research communities as a dialogue-based interface providing advanced human-computer interactions. On the other hand, Open Data continues to be an important trend and a potential enabler for government transparency and citizen participation. This paper shows how these two paradigms can be combined to help non-expert users find and discover open government datasets through dialogue.
