Why the need for machine learning for the second part? It seems like a complicated way to do what you could do with some simple database queries.

It's not about some simple word frequencies of words. Some common words like "like" "need" "second" "part" in the dataset of whole documents isn't so meaningful in a specific sentence. Google "tf-idf" will show you more details about this.

Ok, I looked that up. Again isn't this something that Elasticsearch would do without needing to set up a machine learning system?
