Abstract
A computer system, method, and computer readable product are provided for cognitive initialization of large-scale advection-diffusion models. In various embodiments, parameters are identified for configuring an advection-diffusion model to be run. Then a natural language processing search is conducted for these parameters in relevant literature to find corresponding numerical values. These search results are compared, and values for the parameters are set for the advection-diffusion model, and the model is run.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method for determining a first numerical value for a first parameter of a computer-based advection-diffusion model, the method comprising:
- determining the first parameter for a computer-based advection-diffusion model for which the first numerical value is to be determined;
- performing a natural language processing (NLP) search for a plurality of numerical values for the first parameter on a plurality of documents;
- selecting the first numerical value for the first parameter from the plurality of numerical values for the first parameter;
- performing the advection-diffusion model using the first numerical value for the first parameter;
- and
- storing a result of performing the advection-diffusion model in a computer memory.
A computer system for determining a first numerical value for a first parameter of a computer-based advection-diffusion model, comprising:
- a processor, a computer-readable memory, a computer-readable tangible storage device, and program instructions stored on the storage device for execution by the processor via the memory, wherein execution of the program instructions by the computer system configures the computer system to:
- perform a natural language processing (NLP) search for a plurality of numerical values for the first parameter on a plurality of documents;
- select the first numerical value for the first parameter from the plurality of numerical values for the first parameter;
- and
- perform the advection-diffusion model using the first numerical value for the first parameter.
A computer program product, comprising:
- a computer readable storage medium having programming instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computer cause the computer to:
- perform a natural language processing (NLP) search for a plurality of numerical values for a first parameter of an advection-diffusion model on a plurality of documents;
- select a first numerical value for the first parameter from the plurality of numerical values for the first parameter;
- and
- perform the advection-diffusion model using the first numerical value for the first parameter.
