I have asked the question to my rasa bot like: “What is the number of people in a county”…The exact same question is not present in any of my nlu example data and it classifies this utterance with some random intent. But I have an intent having example like: “number of schools”. So, instead of classifying this utterance with any random intent, it should classify this utterance with number of schools because it is the most similar nlu example present. I wanted to say that should I customize my nlu pipeline and the epochs I am using to do this nlu training better. Thanks
