Duckling is an open-source natural language processing (NLP) tool created by Facebook, primarily used for parsing and understanding natural language input, particularly for tasks like entity recognition. It is designed to extract structured information from unstructured text, such as identifying dates, times, quantities, and other meaningful entities within sentences. Duckling supports multiple languages and is often used in conjunction with chatbots and conversational interfaces to improve the understanding of user input.
