Question

I’m making a chatbot. Without using NLP or approaches like MARKOV MODEL AND NAIVE BAYES to analyse what a sentence is looking for using probabilities. Is there any approach that I can use in-order for me to identify what a sentence is looking for?
Example: What phone has the lowest price?
Then I would like to know whether the sentence given is looking for the lowest price. So i would be able to query it from my knowledge base.
Any suggestions? :)

I'm not an expert in the field, but from what I understand...
You could run the input against a dictionary to pick out the nouns, adjectives, and verbs. But it's going to require chatters who can spell correctly without typos. Otherwise, straight statistics without the things you said you're avoiding would require an immense sample size to be anywhere near accurate.
My impression.
