摘要： Systems and methods are disclosed for generating an expanded user segment based on a target segment of users associated with a specified target feature. In one implementation, a method is provided that includes receiving information about online activity by a set of users, the information including a unique user ID associated with each of the set of users; extracting from the received information, data about the set of users who are associated with the specified target feature; specifying one or more independent features relevant to a user association with the specified target feature; building a model that represents the probability of any user being associated with the specified target feature, based on the extracted data and the independent features; and using the model to score a network population of users relative to the specified feature, based on information received about online activity by the network population of users.

摘要： A method of automatically constructing a model of an activity from an unsupervised examination of a plurality of textual documents describing the activity is comprised of: extracting prototypical steps from the plurality of textual documents; sequencing the extracted steps; aligning the sequenced steps; and constructing the model based on the aligned steps. The model may take the form of a step vs. position matrix which identifies the prototypical steps that make up the activity and provides the probability of each step occupying each position within the activity. The model thus constitutes common sense knowledge that encodes the stereotypical steps of an activity and the stereotypical sequencing of the steps.

摘要： A method of generating an ideographic representation of a name given in a letter based system begins with a determination of the language of original. After determining the language of origin for the name, the name is segmented into a segmentation sequence in response to the determined language of origin. A candidate representation is generated for the segmentation sequence based on ideographic representations of the segments. A corpus is used to validate the candidate representation. The corpus can be either a monolingual corpus or a multilingual corpus. The method can also include adding an additional validation step using either a monolingual corpus or a multilingual corpus, which ever was not used in the first validation step. Because of the rules governing abstracts, this abstract should not be used to construe the claims.

摘要： A method of changing semantic information comprises changing a first bi-directional coupling between a surface region in a document and a first semantic object to a second bi-directional coupling between the surface region and a second semantic object. More particularly, the method may be comprised of identifying an occurrence of a surface region in a document, the surface region having a first link for coupling the surface region to a first semantic object, and the first semantic object having a first association for coupling the first semantic object with the surface region. The first link is replaced with a second link for coupling the surface region to a second semantic object. The first association is changed to a second association for coupling the second semantic object with the surface region. Another method for changing semantic information comprising selecting a semantic object stored in a data repository and changing the selected semantic object. A scope is then selected, either manually or automatically. A set of semantically anchored expressions associated with the semantic object is identified in response to the scope. A determination is made if the semantically anchored expressions are consistent with the changed semantic object and, if not, the semantically anchored expressions are updated so as to be consistent with the changed semantic object.

摘要： A wastewater treatment system and method for remediating wastewater and human waste that is self-contained and that has no connection to a municipal wastewater system and no connection to an electrical grid. The domestic toilet and wastewater treatment system can be powered by a photovoltaic panel as a source of electricity. The system includes an electrochemical cell that allows a waste stream to be disinfected in a few hours to a condition where no viable bacterial colonies can be cultured. The system produces a liquid stream that is suitable for system flushing or for uses in which non-potable water is acceptable. The system can generate hydrogen as a product that can be used to generate power. The system can generate nitrate, urea, ammonia and phosphate for use as fertilizer. The disinfected residual organic solids are also completely disinfected for potential use as an organic soil amendment for agriculture.

摘要： One example of a semantically informed text operation comprises selecting a source region of a document and determining if the source region has a surface region bi-directionally coupled to a semantic object. The coupled semantic object is identified as are the presentation(s) associated with the semantic object. A target region of the same or anther document is selected. Any of the presentations that cannot be expressed in the target region are eliminated to identify a set of remaining presentations. A set of semantic choices based on the remaining presentations is determined. One of the semantic choices is selected and executed in the target region.

摘要： Embodiments for a method for ranking social quality of content published on a plurality of web pages are provided. In an embodiment, the method includes receiving at least one log record from a tracking component on at least one web page. The one log record is indicative of at least one user activity on the at least one web page. The method further includes aggregating the at least one log record corresponding to preferably each of the plurality of web pages based on one or more parameters. The method also includes assigning a first score for preferably each of the plurality of web pages based on the aggregating. The first score is indicative of a social quality of content published in the at least one web page. The method includes ranking the plurality of web pages based on the first score.
