Working title: Expanding an NLP-Based Bus Query System to Increase Its Usefulness
The task will be to expand the functionality of the natural language query system BusTUC, to include support for additional information deemed useful by potential users.
The autumn project leading up to this project shall be treated as the groundwork for this thesis. It identified suitable areas of expansion, at least some of which shall be implemented. For example, chronological bus stop lists and support for queries about bus frequencies were found to be popular potential improvements. Written dialogue support is also desirable.
The result shall be compared to BusTUC as it was before the work, and the significance of the work shall be evaluated.

Dersom serveren fortsatt er oppe og fungerer, går det an å ringe den og se hva man får. Basert på dette kan man nok få en noe bedre oversikt.
