| description | Methods and systems which perform information retrieval using natural language dialogue for navigating an inventory of items are described. One example provides an information retrieval system to a user using natural language dialogue. The system comprises a user input receiving device, an output device, a database comprising an inventory of items, and a processor. The processor is configured to retrieve one or more items from the inventory of items using an iterative process by: in response to receiving from the user input receiving device a user input, identifying a subset of the inventory based on the user input. The processor is configured to automatically process the subset of items to determine a classification for distinguishing between items of the subset, to generate an enquiry for a user using the classification and to transmit the enquiry to the output device. The user input and/or the enquiry may use natural language. |
