Abstract
An embodiment for identifying and processing poly-process natural language queries may include receiving a natural language query. The embodiment may also automatically identify a bridge entity in the received natural language query. The embodiment may also automatically determine whether the received natural language query is a poly-process query. The embodiment may further include, in response to identifying that the received natural language query is the poly-process query, automatically generating sub-queries for each process in the poly-process query and generate results for each sub-query. The embodiment may also automatically combining the results of each sub-query using the bridge entity to output a combined result. The embodiment may further include automatically generating a modified sub-query for post-processing of the combined result. The embodiment may also automatically process the modified sub-query to generate a final query result for the received natural language query.
