Custom lexicon and jargon recognition

You can map custom keywords, jargon, and phrases to a definition hila can understand. This feature allows you to use domain-specific terms that are not in the hila lexicon.

Open the Lexicon window by clicking the Lexicon icon in the bottom-left corner of the hila UI.

Tasks:

• Add a new definition by clicking New definition then adding the keyword or phrase and definition in the pop-out window.

• Edit a keyword or definition by clicking the corresponding row and editing the keyword or definition in the pop-out window.

• Delete a mapping by selecting a row and clicking the garbage can icon to the far right. You can also click the row and then click Delete in the pop-out window.

Note: In some situations, hila detects a keyword or phrase that might be a custom keyword. When this happens, hila displays a message asking if you want to add the keyword to the lexicon.

Language scenarios

Supported language combinations for custom keywords include:

• You can ask a question in either English or Japanese that includes an English custom keyword and an English definition, and hila can handle the custom keyword.
• If the keyword and definition are in Japanese, hila can only handle the custom keyword when the question is in Japanese.
