Eleos (In Progress)

Seeking to learn and apply state-of-the-art research in natural language processing, particularly in the domain of conversational agents, multiclass classification, and sentiment analysis especially as they relate to combating mental health, I designed the basic architecture of Eleos as a tool for facilitating conversation which would require high emotional intelligence. As shown in the image above, Eleos is a collective system of 7 NLP components namely that each implements its own NLP or ML system. By nature of the problem which Eleos aims to tackle, the scope of the project is quite large and there is definitely ample room for improving each component. The idea behind this first iteration of Eleos or Eleosv1.0 is to create a system that can perform cohesively and achieve considerably satisfactory conversations with a user. Eleos is named after the Greek Goddess of compassion with the same name. It is my contention that giving Eleos a personality and a name will help increase the belief in the emotional responses she will convey to the user. I have also listed the individual components of Eleos and their functions below.
