Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems, methods and products for interpreting and structuring free text records utilizing extractions of several types including syntactic, role, thematic and domain extractions. Also disclosed herein are systems, methods and products for integrating interpretive extractions with structured data into unified structures that can be analyzed with, among other tools, data mining and data visualization tools.
Claims28
A product of a process of integration of mixed format data, said product comprising at least one storage media device including a database of integrated data, said product produced by an integration process comprising the steps of:
- accessing a database of structured data, the structured data comprising a set of data tuples;
- accessing a source of unstructured data, the unstructured data including free text relatable to the data tuples of the structured data;
- interpreting the free text to produce a set of construed data reflecting at least one relational fact conveyed in the free text, each construed datum relatable to a data tuple of the structured data;
- integrating the produced data with the data tuples of the structured data;
- and
- storing the integrated data produced by said integrating to the at least one storage media device in the form of a database.
A product of a process of integration of mixed format data, said product comprising a memory device having stored thereon integrated data, said product produced by an integration process comprising the steps of:
- accessing a database of structured data, the structured data comprising a set of data tuples;
- accessing a source of unstructured data, the unstructured data including free text relatable to the data tuples of the structured data;
- interpreting the free text to produce a set of construed data reflecting at least one relational fact conveyed in the free text, each construed datum relatable to a data tuple of the structured data;
- integrating the produced data with the data tuples of the structured data;
- and
- storing the integrated data produced by said integrating to the memory device.
