Abstract

Due to the development of IT technology and the on-going Coronavirus disease, non-face-to-face services have been activated. To overcome the inconvenience of non-face-to-face service, service providers have adopted chatbots as a way to feel like a human being. As the increasing chatbot services, chatbot builders have emerged, which can help non-developers to build them. Although its popularity has increased, its performance evaluation has not been conducted on such chatbot builders. In this paper, we implement a prototype chatbot that classifies hospital departments in the medical field using Dialogflow and Rasa, which are popular chatbot builders. By measuring the accuracy of the chatbot's classification of medical subjects, we evaluated the level of accuracy that the most used chatbot builder can have when they are used to build a chatbot service. The simulation results showed that Dialogflow had 87%, 65%, and 60%, and Rasa did 64%, 70%, and 63% in surgery dermatology, and otolaryngology, respectively.
