12. A computer-readable hardware storage medium having instructions stored thereon for processing data information, such that the instructions, when carried out by a processing device, cause the processing device to perform operations of: parsing an utterance to identify syntactic relationships amongst words in the utterance; creating sets of words from the utterance based on the syntactic relationships; mapping each set of the sets of words to a respective candidate intent value to produce a list of candidate intent values for the utterance; ranking the candidate intent values in the list based on usage of the sets of words in previously received utterances; and selecting, from the list, a candidate intent value as being representative of an intent of the utterance; detecting that the selected candidate intent value maps to multiple possible labels in a label listing, an entry in the label listing indicating that the selected candidate intent value maps to the multiple possible labels, the multiple possible labels including a majority label representing a first classification and a minority label representing a second classification; selecting the majority label; and assigning the selected majority label to the utterance to indicate that the utterance falls into the first classification, the selected majority label representative of a dominant subject matter likely intended by the utterance.

The computer-readable hardware storage medium as in claim 12 , wherein creating the sets of words in the utterance includes: utilizing the identified syntactic relationships of words to identify groupings of related words in the utterance; and applying a set of pattern rules to the identified syntactic relationships to identify locations of words in the utterance to create the sets of words.
