Embodiments of the invention provide a user intention identification method and apparatus, and an electronic device. The method comprises the steps of obtaining to-be-processed user dialogue data; clustering the user dialogue data by adopting at least two clustering algorithms to obtain a clustering result; obtaining an intersection between the clustering results as a target clustering result; and performing user intention recognition according to the target clustering result to obtain user intention data. According to the embodiment of the invention, the clustering results corresponding to the at least two clustering algorithms are utilized, the intersection of the two clustering algorithms is reserved as the target clustering result, and only the high-quality target clustering result is reserved, so that high-quality user intention data can be obtained when user intention recognition is carried out based on the target clustering result.
