  • Patent number: 11275796
    Abstract: A query-focused faceted structure generation method, system, and computer program product for generating a query-focused faceted structure from a taxonomy for searching a document collection, including ingesting a document corpus, generating a vector space representation of a query and instances from a taxonomy of the document corpus, and producing a dynamic structure of a relevant facet categories and facet values using a two-vector space representation from the generated vector space representation.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11003701
    Abstract: A query-focused faceted structure generation method, system, and computer program product for generating a query-focused faceted structure from a taxonomy for searching a document corpus, including augmenting taxonomy types with new instances where the instances comprise entities within a proximity of existing instances of taxonomy types in a local embedding of entities parsed from the document corpus, ranking each instance in the augmented taxonomy with respect to its type as a function of both a distance from an instance to a query in a global embedding vector space of the entities trained from the document corpus and a distance of an instance to a type in the local embedding, and ranking the taxonomy types using expanded instances in the document corpus for each type.
