An automatic, system-generated, multi-faceted comprehension and response capability, using Natural Language Processing, to provide value specific answers from available unstructured data, documents and text. Questions and queries are interpreted by the system's capability to determine the type of questions and provide a response or answer based on the data or information available. If the answer is in the ingested data, a response is provided that is either; a list of documents, a list of document snippets with the answer contained in the snippets, a formalized and templated response, or a highly relevant hand curated response.

The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a question-and-answer processing method, including: acquiring a to-be-answered question; determining standard questions meeting a preset condition as a plurality of candidate standard questions, from a plurality of preset standard questions, according to a text similarity with the to-be-answered question, based on a text statistical algorithm; determining, a candidate standard question with the highest semantic similarity with the to-be-answered question as a matching standard question, from the plurality of candidate standard questions, based on a deep text matching algorithm; and determining an answer to the to-be-answered question at least according to the matching standard question. The embodiment of the present disclosure also provides an electronic device and a computer readable medium.

Provided is a method for querying questions. The method includes: acquiring input information of a user; acquiring intention information of the user based on the input information of the user; determining an answer generation rule; and generating, based on the input information and the intention information, a first answer in accordance with the answer generation rule, and providing the first answer to the user.

In a search or delete request towards a storage entity storing data in a plurality of records, an identifier list indicating identifiers associated with specific records to be processed is included, and the request including the identifier list is transmitted.

A method performed by a computing device includes determining a set of identigens for each word of a query of a topic to produce sets of identigens. Each set of identigens represents one or more different meanings of a word of the query. The method further includes interpreting, using identigen pairing rules, the sets of identigens to determine a most likely meaning interpretation of the query and produce an excluding query entigen group with an excluding entigen. The method further includes recovering a response entigen group for the query from a knowledge database utilizing the excluding query entigen group. The response entigen group provides a response to the query.

A system and method are presented that improves search results based on skills associated with individuals. The system monitors an individual's contributions to a third-party forum and associates the contributions with skills. The system also monitors learnings received by the individual. Assignments are made to associate the individual with the skills and to assign points. Users request a search based on search skill parameters, and the system uses forum-based data and non-forum data to identify and sort individuals. Skill and point assignments are made temporarily, and assignments are deleted upon the expiration of a time-to-live clock. Save events can permanently save data. Local forum data is also stored and can be used to restore deleted assignments. Points are used to improve avatars used when interacting with searching users.

Unstructured text is identified as larger than a threshold size. Named-entity recognition analysis is executed on the unstructured text. One or more anchor entities of the unstructured text are determined that each occur more than a threshold amount of times within the unstructured text. Two or more instances of the one or more anchor entities that are separated by at least a threshold amount of text of the unstructured text are identified. The unstructured text is partitioned into at least three sections. The unstructured text is partitioned at respective natural language demarcation points associated with each of the two or more instances such that each of the at least three sections is smaller than the threshold size. Separate coreference analyses are performed in parallel on each of the at least three sections.

Enhanced techniques and circuitry are presented herein for providing responses to questions from among digital documentation sources spanning various documentation formats, versions, and types. One example includes a method comprising receiving an indication of a question directed to subject having a documentation corpus, determining a set of passages of the documentation corpus related to the question, ranking the set of passages according to relevance to the question, forming semantic clusters comprising sentences extracted from ranked ones of the set of passages according to sentence similarity, and providing a response to the question based at least on a selected semantic cluster.
