Agricultural Knowledge-Enhanced Deep Learning for Joint Intent Detection and Slot Filling

Intent detection and slot filling are fundamental components for constructing intelligent question-answering systems in agricultural domains. Existing approaches show notable limitations in semantic feature extraction and achieve relatively low accuracy when processing domain-specific agricultural queries with complex terminology and contextual dependencies. To address these challenges, this paper proposes an agricultural knowledge-enhanced deep learning approach that integrates agricultural domain knowledge and terminology with advanced neural architectures. The method integrates HanLP-based agricultural terminology processing with BERT contextual encoding, TextCNN feature extraction, and attention-based fusion. Experimental validation on a curated domain-specific agricultural dataset of 8041 melon cultivation queries demonstrates that the proposed model achieves an accuracy of 79.6%, recall of 80.1%, and F1-score of 79.8%, demonstrating significant improvements (7–22% performance gains) over baseline methods including TextRNN, TextRCNN, TextCNN, and BERT-TextCNN models. The results demonstrate significant potential for advancing intelligent agricultural advisory systems and domain-specific natural language understanding applications, particularly for precision agriculture applications.
