Oracle Digital Assistant lives in the cloud where it uses universal time (UTC) for all data operations. Dependent to where you live in this world, the timezone offset of your local time compared to UTC varies. For Germany, where I am based in, the timezone offset is 2 hours that Germany is ahead of UTC (or 7200000 ms). UTC is a common date and time reference used in many applications and software products. However, the user local time is often needed, for example if there...

Answer intent in Oracle Digital Assistant uses Trainer Tm, a machine learning model, to understand how users ask for a particular answer. Unlike other systems that map an answer to one or more questions in order to retrieve the answer, the machine learning based system learns from examples (utterances) allowing it to produce answer with high confidence. Also, by using Trainer Tm as the machine learning model in Oracle Digital Assistant, answer intents use the same optimized...

Reality is that customers look for a way to extract entities from a large set of data values that easily may be in the hundreds of thousand records. In this article we explain how this requirement can be achieved with the Oracle database and Oracle Data Rest Services (ORDS).

This article explains how you can display a calendar widget for an input text prompt using the Oracle Web SDK. The solution uses a resource bundle entry to return HTML markup for the calendar. The Oracle Web SDK JavaScript API is used to send the selected date information back to the skill to update the underlying variable.

Even with the best intentions in the world, synthetic utterances can introduce bias, often because we all have our own myopic view of the world. It is also fair to ask the question “what makes a good utterances or training corpus?” So how might you kick-start training your NLP model? Read on.

GIT is a free open source version control system available at https://git-scm.com/about/free-and-open-source. This article does not explain GIT but shows how you can use GIT to version control Oracle Digital Assistant custom component service projects. In this article I propose a GIT repository structure that has directories built for each skill requiring custom components. This proposal is for custom components that should be deployed to the local component container in a...

Especially when Oracle Digital Assistant is made available on websites or web applications, developers look for a web-type look and feel and behavior of bot responses to seamlessly integrate the bot into the surrounding web environment. Because Oracle Digital Assistant can be exposed through multiple messenger channels as well as by voice, it is important that the goal of better web integration does not tie a bot to a single channel. In this article I explain how you use...
