Automatic semantic rating and abstraction of literature

摘要

Deep semantic analysis is performed on an electronic literary work in order to detect plot elements and optional other storyline elements such as characters within the work. Multiple levels of abstract are generated into a model representing the literary work, wherein each element in each abstraction level may be independently rated for preference by a user. Through comparison of multiple abstraction models and one or more user rating preferences, one or more alternative literary works may be automatically recommended to the user.
