BOSTON, June 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Starting today, even machines can solve crossword puzzles thanks to WebCrow 2.0, a software developed by the University of Siena in collaboration with expert.ai (EXAI:IM), a leading company in artificial intelligence (AI) for natural language processing (NLP) and understanding (NLU).

Key Points: 
  • For over a century, crossword puzzles have been an intriguing challenge for humans because of the complexity and nuance of the human language.
  • They must also be able to interpret slang, catch phrases, wordplay and other forms of ambiguity (e.g., a crossword clue: liquid that does not stick, answer: scotch).
  • This allows the software to identify the meaning of words based on definitions and other clues in crossword puzzles.
  • A special LinkedIn NLP stream session, "Solving Crossword Puzzles with WebCrow AI," is scheduled for June 16 at 11:00 am EDT.
