d) Input, processing, output, feedback

Answer 1

The four stages of natural language processing are recognition, parsing, interpretation, and generation.

Correct option is a.

Step-by-step explanation:

The four stages of natural language processing are:

1. Recognition: In this stage, the computer identifies and understands the basic elements of a sentence, such as words and punctuation.
2. Parsing: The computer analyzes the grammatical structure of the sentence and identifies the relationships between the words.
3. Interpretation: The computer assigns meaning to the sentence by using semantic rules and knowledge.
4. Generation: The computer generates a response or output based on the input it received.
