MedBot: Named Data Networking based Chatbot

Abstract: The chatbot is used to establish a communication between human and machine. In this scenario the chatbot is a medical consultant between the patients and the doctors. We design a system which uses Artificial Intelligence Markup Language (AIML) and Natural Language Processing (NLP). And to establish a communication we use Named Data Networking instead of TCP/IP protocol. NDN’s Architecture is similar to today’s IP Architecture but there is a small difference. NDN uses named data instead of IP addresses to establish a communication. Motivation behind the idea is to provide a platform which solve minor problems of patients so that they can save their time and efforts. In case, the problems are not solved chatbot itself ask patient for appointment. Our aim is to provide friendly environment and fill the communication gap between doctor and patient.  Keywords:  CHATBOT
