A Natural Language Interface to Database (NLIDB) refers to a database interface that translates a question asked in natural language into a structured query. Aggregation questions express aggregation functions, such as count, sum, average, minimum and maximum, and optionally a group by clause and a having clause. NLIDBs deliver good results for standard questions but usually do not deal with aggregation questions. The main contribution of this article is a generic module, called GLAMORISE (GeneraL Aggregation MOdule using a RelatIonal databaSE), that extends NLIDBs to cope with aggregation questions. GLAMORISE covers aggregations with ambiguities, timescale differences, aggregations in multiple attributes, the use of superlative adjectives, basic recognition of measurement units, and aggregations in attributes with compound names.

As the main train service provider company in Indonesia, PT Kereta Api Indonesia (PT KAI) has many customers who need information. In order to maintain customer loyalty, PT KAI must respond quickly and be adaptive to technology to provide the best service to customers. Limited human resources make PT KAI unable to serve customers simultaneously, so customers often have to wait for a response. In order to provide the best service, automatic messages are needed in order to help customer service performance respond quickly and at the same time with no cost, access anytime and anywhere. This study proposes a new approach with chatbots as a medium for conveying automatic information quickly and simultaneously. This chatbot is made with a computational language that focuses on natural language modeling and cosine similarity as a method for calculating the proximity of inputs and databases. This research can help PT KAI's customer service workers to answer customer needs automatically.

Abstract On the basis of the author’s earlier works, the article proposes a new approach to creating an artificial intellect system in a model of a human being that is presented as the unification of an intellectual agent and a humanoid robot (ARb). In accordance with the proposed new approach, the development of an artificial intellect is achieved by teaching a natural language to an ARb, and by its utilization for communication with ARbs and humans, as well as for reflections. A method is proposed for the implementation of the approach. Within the framework of that method, a human model is “brought up” like a child, in a collective of automatons and children, whereupon an ARb must master a natural language and reflection, and possess self-awareness. Agent robots (ARbs) propagate and their population evolves; that is ARbs develop cognitively from generation to generation. ARbs must perform the tasks they were given, such as computing, whereupon they are then assigned time for “private life” for improving their education as well as for searching for partners for propagation. After having received an education, every agent robot may be viewed as a “person” who is capable of activities that contain elements of creativity. The development of ARbs thanks to the evolution of their population, education, and personal “life” experience, including “work” experience, which is mastered in a collective of humans and automatons.
