Semantic linkage qualification of ontologically related entities

A system comprising:

• a processor communicatively coupled to a memory, the processor configured to:
• determine an ontology, the ontology comprising a plurality of ontological relationships;
• receive a plurality of passages;
• determine a target set of co-occurring entities comprising a first entity and a second entity;
• determine a first passage in the plurality of passages that includes the first entity and the second entity;
• determine, from the ontology, a first ontological relationship between the first entity and the second entity;
• analyze the first passage to determine a congruency score for the first ontological relationship;
• and
• generate a relationship annotation between the first entity and the second entity in the first passages based on the congruency score being within a threshold.

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

• determining, by the processor, an ontology, the ontology comprising a plurality of ontological relationships;
• receiving, by the processor, a plurality of passages;
• determining, by the processor, a target set of co-occurring entities comprising a first entity and a second entity;
• determining a first passage in the plurality of passages that includes the first entity and the second entity;
• determining, from the ontology, a first ontological relationship between the first entity and the second entity;
• analyzing the first passage to determine a congruency score for the first ontological relationship;
• and
• generating a relationship annotation between the first entity and the second entity in the first passages based on the congruency score being within a threshold.
