    摘要: A method and system for mining a document containing dirty text. Dirty text is removed or replaced and the document is processed using a variety of text mining techniques. In one embodiment, dirty text removal and replacement occurs in two stages. In the first stage, a general cleaning occurs on all documents without regard to what domain they belong to or the mining task to be performed. In the second stage, document cleaning is more specific to the anomalies of the domain and the mining task to be performed. In the third stage, the document is processed using a variety of data mining techniques according to the mining task. In one embodiment, the present invention scores and ranks sentences in a document according to their relevance, extracts the highest ranked sentences, and presents a summary. The present invention allows users to leverage existing domain knowledge and can be customized according the domain and task requirements.

    摘要: The disclosed embodiments relate to a system and method for processing data. The system may involve a process-modeling tool adapted to define a process model, to define mapping from a resource to an activity in the process model, and to define a metric on the process model. Additionally, the system may have a designation module adapted to designate a goal and define constraints. Also included may be a process simulation engine adapted to employ the process model to simulate a process execution based on the process data according to different configurations and to produce process execution data that comprises an expected value for the metric. Further, a process improvement engine may be a component adapted to evaluate the process simulation data produced by the process simulation engine and to provide process improvement data indicative of changes in the expected value of the metric. A search tool may further be included that is adapted to search a configuration space that comprises the process improvement data to determine a prospective configuration that causes the expected value of the metric to approach the goal.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a method for content mining of semi-structured documents. In one embodiment, a semi-structured document is first converted from a document-type specific format such as HTML or PDF, to a document-type independent format such as XML. The document formatting, which contains basic level information about the document's structure, is then analyzed by a series of modules to develop a higher level understanding of the document's structure. These modules append information to the document describing the features which collectively comprise the higher level document structure. The appended information facilitates finding specified information within the document when content mining is performed.

    摘要: A method and system of normalizing dirty text in a document. The present invention creates a thesaurus that evolves over time as new document collections are analyzed. This thesaurus, which is used by an editor, contains standard terms and phrases, and their corresponding variations of these standard terms and phrases. Documents are run through this editor and misspelled words or phrases, joined words, and ad hoc abbreviations are replaced with standard terms from the thesaurus. The present invention also enables normalization of documents in cases where a list of standard terms must be inferred from the corpus of the document. The normalizer will facilitate data mining applications which can not function properly with dirty text, resulting in more accurate analysis of documents. Over time, as the thesaurus evolves, collecting more words and phrases, the process of generating the thesaurus will become more automated.

    摘要: A method, system, and apparatus are disclosed for categorizing content of contracts. In one arrangement, a processor-based method for categorizing content of contracts involves determining at, least one language pattern indicative of a contract attribute from text from a plurality of contracts. It is determined whether the language pattern is present in a contract. In response to the presence of the language pattern in the contract, at least a portion of the contract is assigned to at least one contract attribute.
