  • Utilizing semantic hierarchies to process free-form text
    Patent number: 10402435
    Abstract: User feedback may be analyzed with semantic hierarchies. In some instances, the user feedback includes free-form text. The user feedback may be mapped to one or more semantic hierarchies that include multiple levels of nodes, where each node corresponds to a class. Information of the one or more semantic hierarchies may be mapped to an ontology model. The mapped information of the ontology model may be used to identify an actionable item for the user feedback, such as a problem, suggestion, question, or other issue. Information regarding the actionable item may be made available to an individual for evaluation of the actionable item.
