Methods, Systems, and Apparatuses for Efficient Information Retrieval

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause:
• presenting a conversational interface configured to receive input, display the received input, and provide output responsive to the received input;
• receiving, via the conversational interface, an input comprising at least one subject matter keyword;
• generating, based on the at least one subject matter keyword, a collection of articulations of information by:
• determining one or more information sources;
• extracting content from the one or more information sources and forming a corpus of content by standardizing the extracted content into a common format for semantic processing and transforming the formatted content into tokens;
• identifying the articulations of information within the corpus by associating, for each articulation of information, two or more tokens with each other based on sematic relatedness;
• ranking the articulations of information based on one or more of:
• measuring frequencies of two or more articulations of information within the collection of the articulations of information;
• or
• analyzing a degree of contextual relatedness among two or more articulations of information within the collection of the articulations of information;
• and
• providing, via the conversational interface and based on the ranking, an output responsive to the input.

A computer readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause:

• presenting a conversational interface configured to receive input, display the received input, and provide output responsive to the received input;
• receiving, via the conversational interface, an input comprising at least one subject matter keyword;
• generating, based on the at least one subject matter keyword, a collection of articulations of information by:

• extracting content from the one or more information sources and forming a corpus of content by standardizing the extracted content into a common format for semantic processing and transforming the formatted content into tokens;
• identifying the articulations of information within the corpus by determining, for each articulation of information, two or more tokens that are semantically related;
• ranking the articulations of information based on one or more of:
• measuring frequencies of two or more articulations of information within the collection of the articulations of information;
• or
• analyzing a degree of contextual relatedness among two or more articulations of information within the collection of the articulations of information;
• and
• providing, via the conversational interface and based on the ranking, an output responsive to the input.
