To improve the User experience with the Bot, it is required to train Luma VA periodically. It means training the NLP engine on how to understand the user's language better. The more phrases are fed to the Natural Language Processing (NLP) engine, the better it matches skills to the phrases and even matches to phrases that do not exist.
What does Training Bot mean:
A Luma Skill is triggered when a user utterance request matches user phrases associated with the skill. When Luma VA the Virtual Agent does not find any matching skill for an utterance above the configured fallback thresholda user’s utterance, it is marked as 'Unmatched Phrase'. There are two ways to Train Luma VA on these unmatched phrases:
Supervised Training
Automated Training
Supervised Training
As part of Supervised training, you can identify and associate You can manually train your bot by identifying and associating the unmatched phrases to System Skills and Custom Skills that are available in your Tenant. Follow bot. To do so, follow the below steps:
Once the phrases are associated with the Skill, the phrases are removed from the Unmatched phrases list.

Once marked as Reviewed, the phrase does not appear as an Unresolved phrase,
for training to take effect in Virtual Agent.
Automated Training
Luma VA can also be enabled to train itself automatically, based on the phrases used by the End-user to execute a skill. It automatically associates an unmatched phrase to an existing skill without any manual intervention.

The confidence score for a user phrase against the skill is below the Confirmation Threshold set for your Tenant.
No other skill falls within the proximity range set for your tenant,
The user’s response to the confirmation prompt is Yes.
When the Automated Training option is enabled, the user's positive responses to the skill confirmation message, adds the user phrase to the skill. This improves the Machine Learning for the NLP Engine.
