System take a question as an input and return an answer relevant to that question. For the sake of the research frequently asked questions were collected from DIU website and were used as the dataset of the project. Questions and their relevant answers were tokenized first and then stop words were removed. After that each sentence was converted into vector using word2vec method. Various similarity algorithms were studied and finally cosine and TF-IDF were implemented to match the best similar question with the given input. Index of the answer from selected question was defined and return as an output. Whole project was done by using Google Colab and no interface has been developed till now.
