A comparative study of retrieval-based and generative-based chatbots using Deep Learning and Machine Learning

Increased screen time may cause significant health impacts, including harmful effects on mental health. Studies on the association between technological obsessions and their influence on health have been conducted using Deep Learning (DL) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques.

description Increased screen time may cause significant health impacts, including harmful effects on mental health. Studies on the association between technological obsessions and their influence on health have been conducted using Deep Learning (DL) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques. The deployment of chatbots in different industries has been proven as a game-changer. We study conversational Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems enabling operators to conduct conversations with machines that resemble those with humans. We design and develop two retrieval-based and generative-based chatbots, each with six designs. Among the retrieval-based chatbots, Vanilla Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) has an accuracy of 83.22%, Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) is 89.87% accurate, Bidirectional LSTM (Bi-LSTM) is 91.57% accurate, Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) is 65.57% accurate, and Convolution Neural Network (CNN) is 82.33% accurate. In comparison, generative-based chatbots have encoder–decoder designs that are 94.45% accurate. The most significant distinction is that while generative-based chatbots can generate new text, retrieval-based chatbots are restricted to responding to inputs that match the best of the outputs they already know.
