Producing datasets for representing terms and objects based on automated learning from text contents

摘要

A system and methods for creating data objects as symbolic or associative representations of terms or objects using machine-based methods are presented. A term can be a word or a phrase, which can also be the name of an object. For a given term, the methods analyze other terms associated with the term, and determine a set of terms or values to be attached to the term to form a dataset, either as a representation of the term, or as information about an object represented by the term, including various properties associated with the object. The methods include obtaining a group of text contents or non-natural language data contents, specifying a target term or symbol, and identifying contextual attributes of the target term or symbol. The contextual attributes include positional and distance attributes, as well as grammatical and semantic attributes.
