摘要： A system is disclosed for checking grammar and usage using a flexible portfolio of different mechanisms, and automatically providing a variety of different examples of standard usage, selected from analogous Web content. The system can be used for checking the grammar and usage in any application that involves natural language text, such as word processing, email, and presentation applications. The grammar and usage can be evaluated using several complementary evaluation modules, which may include one based on a trained classifier, one based on regular expressions, and one based on comparative searches of the Web or a local corpus. The evaluation modules can provide a set of suggested alternative segments with corrected grammar and usage. A followup, screened Web search based on the alternative segments, in context, may provide several different in-context examples of proper grammar and usage that the user can consider and select from.

摘要： The present invention provides a facility for determining, for a semantic relation that does not occur in a lexical knowledge base, whether this semantic relation should be inferred despite its absence from the lexical knowledge base. This semantic relation to be inferred is preferably made up of a first word, a second word, and a relation type relating the meanings of the first and second words. In a preferred embodiment, the facility identifies a salient semantic relation having the relation type of the semantic relation to be inferred and relating the first word to an intermediate word other than the second word. The facility then generates a quantitative measure of the similarity in meaning between the intermediate word and the second word. The facility further generates a confidence weight for the semantic relation to be inferred based upon the generated measure of similarity in meaning between the intermediate word and the second word. The facility may also generate a confidence weight for the semantic relation to be inferred based upon the weights of one or more paths connecting the first and second words.
