Abstract

The article demonstrates the main known algorithms for autonomous generation of questions in natural language using neural network tools. Various methods for solving emerging difficulties, the mechanism of the model and the ways of implementation are considered. The results of applying the main algorithms and their analysis to improve the chosen method are presented.
