Framework for Analyzing Graphical Data by Question Answering Systems

摘要

A system for handling a graphical representation of data associated with a question answering (QA) input document includes a memory having instructions therein and includes at least one processor in communication with the memory. The at least one processor is configured to execute the instructions to derive, at least from a portion of the QA input document, first metadata regarding a context of the graphical representation of data. The at least one processor is also configured to execute the instructions to derive, at least from a portion of the graphical representation of data, tabular data. The at least one processor is also configured to execute the instructions to determine, at least in part by comparing at least a portion of the first metadata to existing table annotations from a QA knowledge base, how to incorporate the tabular data into the QA knowledge base.
