Open ended question identification for investigations

A system for question identification, the system comprising:

• a processor communicatively coupled to a memory, the processor configured to:
• receive an investigation profile associated with an investigation, wherein the investigation profile comprises a plurality of questions;
• receive observational data associated with the investigation;
• extract one or more concepts from the observational data;
• map the one or more concepts to the plurality of questions to generate one or more answers to the plurality of questions;
• identify unanswered questions from the plurality of questions based at least in part on the mapping the one or more concepts to the plurality of questions;
• and
• display, in a graphical sequence diagram, the unanswered questions and the one or more answers to the plurality of questions.

A computer program product for question identification comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, where the program instructions are executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform a method comprising:

• receiving, by a processor, an investigation profile associated with an investigation, wherein the investigation profile comprises a plurality of questions;
• receiving, by the processor, observational data associated with the investigation;
• extracting one or more concepts from the observational data;
• mapping the one or more concepts to the plurality of questions to generate one or more answers to the plurality of questions;
• identifying unanswered questions from the plurality of questions based at least in part on the mapping the one or more concepts to the plurality of questions;
• and
• displaying, in a graphical sequence diagram, the unanswered questions and the one or more answers to the plurality of questions.
