摘要:
A computer system and method providing on-demand extension of ontology in an ontology use process. A support module responds to a creation event in the ontology use process. The support module defines ontology specification for a newly created item, in the creation event, in a manner substantially free of disruption or interruption to the ontology use process. An ontology manager incorporates the defined ontology specification into the ontology during the ontology use process such that an on-demand extension of the ontology results. One example ontology use process is semantic modeling of situations, organizations, or objects of interest. Modeling and ontology specification take place hand in hand, and the ontology is extended on an as-needed and on-demand fashion during the course of modeling.

Presented is a computer system and user interface for seamlessly integrating the creation and submission of persistent queries, and for collecting and presenting the real-time results of those queries, into the context of one's work and directly structured work artifacts. Users are provided a real-time awareness of what is happening to their persistent queries and their results, from within the work context of the artifact and program application used during creation and submission of the queries. Rather than having to visit a separate alerting application, the user is able to manage queries and query results directly from a subject application, such as a problem-solving application.

A computer method and system provides for graphical specification of inquiries and includes a corresponding progressive summary. The inquiries operate on stream data. Users graphically specify an inquiry in a graphical user interface according to an ontology. The invention system generates a plain-text translation of the graphical description of the inquiry and displays the generated plain-text description in a progressive summary in the graphical user interface. The system continually updates and generates the display of the plain-text description during user construction of the inquiry. This provides feedback to the user for improved construction of the inquiry.

Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to group cognition and provide a method, system and computer program product for collaborative reasoning. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for collaborative reasoning in a cognitive tool can be provided. The method can include arranging shared entities in a collaborative reasoning shared knowledge base into different models for different end users in different investigations, creating claims for the shared entities in the different models across the different investigations, subscribing the different end users for notification of changes to the claims and shared entities, and providing notice to the subscribed different end users responsive to detecting a change in a claim in one of the different models.

A computer method and system generates inquires. The method and system provide a plurality of templates. Each template outlines a respective inquiry and is associated with one or more semantic types or contexts. Each template has one or more parameters for defining a query instance of the respective inquiry. User input selects a template from the plurality and specifies values for the parameters of the user selected template. Using the user selected template and the user-specified parameter values, an instance of a query is produced. Each template, is associated with semantic types during template construction. The semantic types may be based on classes in an ontology. Template construction may include templatizing prior existing or other queries to create respective templates. In application or use of a template, query generation may be during modeling of a certain domain, and the produced query is for information about the certain domain. Parameter value selection may be automated or assisted by the system based on the model context where the template is instantiated.

摘要:
A dependency manager in a collaborative reasoning system tracks dependencies between and within users' reasoning by recording chains of reasoning as established by users. Elements of reasoning needing reassessment are deduced from the recorded chains of reasoning. In turn, the dependency manager propagates awareness of changes in reasoning and the elements needing reassessment by rendering graphical (e.g., visual) indicators in the user interface of the collaborative reasoning system.
