Detect Financial Topic

The Financial Topic Detection feature is designed to identify whether a user's input mentions any financial topic, such as investment, inflation, or saving money. This functionality enriches applications by allowing for dynamic, content-aware responses based on the financial subjects discussed by the user.

Implementation

Financial topics detected in user input are stored in the Input class within the financialTopic variable. This variable is of type StructuredClass<FinancialTopic>?, which may be null if no financial topic is detected.

Accessing Detected Financial Topic

To access the detected financial topic within your application, you can use the following Kotlin code snippet:

val detectedFinancialTopic = input.financialTopic

Branching Dialogue Based on Financial Topic

To branch dialogues or logic based on the detected financial topic, you can use a conditional check to determine if detectedFinancialTopic is not null, followed by a when statement to handle each specific topic. Below is an example of how to implement such branching:

kotlinCopy codeif (detectedFinancialTopic != null) {
    when (detectedFinancialTopic.value) {
        FinancialTopic.BUDGET_PLANNING -> {
            // Handle BUDGET_PLANNING
        }
        FinancialTopic.HIGH_PRICES -> {
            // Handle HIGH_PRICES
        }
        // Add additional cases for other financial topics
    }
}
