1. A computer-implemented method for generating an answer estimate to a question based on demographic traits, the method comprising:
- identifying that a user has selected a first tag and a second tag, wherein the user selects the first tag and the second tag from a plurality of demographic trait tags displayed within a graphical user interface (GUI), the first tag corresponding to a first demographic trait and the second tag corresponding to a second demographic trait, and wherein the first tag and the second tag provide a context for generating a first answer estimate to a first question;
receiving the first question, wherein the first question is displayed on the GUI with the plurality of selections, and wherein the first question is presented in each of a text format, a diagrams with no text format, a diagrams with text format, and an audio format; and
generating, using natural language processing and based on the first tag and the second tag, the first answer estimate to the first question, wherein the first answer estimate is generated according to the first and second demographic traits, and the first answer estimate provides associated data for each of the plurality of selections.

Abstract
A first question may be received. A first tag may be identified. The first tag may correspond to a first demographic trait. The first tag may be for use in providing a context for generating a first answer estimate to the first question. The first answer estimate may be generated using natural language processing and based on the first tag.

7. A system for generating an answer estimate to a question based on demographic traits, the system comprising:
-
a memory; at least one processor circuit in communication with the memory, wherein the at least one processor circuit is configured to perform a method, the method comprising; identifying that a user has selected a first tag and a second tag, wherein the user selects the first tag and the second tag from a plurality of demographic trait tags within a graphical user interface (GUI), the first tag corresponding to a first demographic trait and the second tag corresponding to a second demographic trait, and wherein the first tag and the second tag provide a context for generating a first answer estimate to a first question; receiving a first question, wherein the first question is displayed on the GUI with the plurality of selections, and wherein the first question is presented in each of a text format, a diagrams with no text format, a diagrams with text format, and an audio format; and generating, using natural language processing and based on the first tag and the second tag, the first answer estimate to the first question, wherein the first answer estimate is generated according to the first and second demographic traits, and the first answer estimate provides associated data for each of the plurality of selections. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10)

11. A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform a method, the method comprising:
-
identifying that a user has selected a first tag and a second tag, wherein the user selects the first tag and the second tag from a plurality of demographic trait tags displayed within a graphical user interface (GUI), the first tag corresponding to a first demographic trait and the second tag corresponding to a second demographic trait, and wherein the first tag and the second tag provide a context for generating a first answer estimate to a first question; receiving a first question, wherein the first question is displayed on the GUI with the plurality of selections, and wherein the first question is presented in each of a text format, a diagrams with no text format, a diagrams with text format, and an audio format; identifying, using natural language processing, an answer to the first question; determining that the answer is incorrect; training, in response to the determining that the answer is incorrect, a training module until the first question is answered correctly; generating, using the natural language processing and based on the first tag and the second tag, the first answer estimate to the first question, wherein the first answer estimate is generated according to the first and second demographic traits, and the first answer estimate provides associated data for each of the plurality of selections. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14)
