About Azure CLU
Build applications with conversational language understanding, an AI language feature that understands natural language to interpret user goals and extract key information from conversational phrases. Create multilingual, customizable intent classification and entity extraction models for your domain-specific keywords or phrases across 96 languages. Train in one natural language and use them in multiple languages without retraining. Quickly create intents and entities and label your own utterances. Add prebuilt components from a wide variety of commonly available types. Evaluate with built-in quantitative measurements like precision and recall. Use the simple dashboard to manage model deployments in the intuitive and user-friendly language studio. Use seamlessly with other features within Azure AI Language, as well as Azure Bot Service for an end-to-end conversational solution. Conversational language understanding is the next generation of Language Understanding (LUIS).

LUIS
Language Understanding (LUIS): A machine learning-based service to build natural language into apps, bots, and IoT devices. Quickly create enterprise-ready, custom models that continuously improve. Add natural language to your apps. Designed to identify valuable information in conversations, LUIS interprets user goals (intents) and distills valuable information from sentences (entities), for a high quality, nuanced language model. LUIS integrates seamlessly with the Azure Bot Service, making it easy to create a sophisticated bot. Powerful developer tools are combined with customizable pre-built apps and entity dictionaries, such as Calendar, Music, and Devices, so you can build and deploy a solution more quickly. Dictionaries are mined from the collective knowledge of the web and supply billions of entries, helping your model to correctly identify valuable information from user conversations. Active learning is used to continuously improve the quality of the models.
