Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for extracting structure and semantics from tabular data are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes processing tabular data comprising data cells and header cells, wherein the processing includes: identifying one or more regions within the tabular data, wherein each of the regions comprises one or more of the data cells; matching some of the regions to one or more of the header cells, wherein the matched header cells are semantically related to the data cells inside the matched region; and generating, based on the matching, an output describing semantic relationships between the data cells and the header cells. The method also includes creating, for each data cell, a tuple comprising semantic information contained within one or more of the header cells that pertains to the data cell.

Abstract: A system, computer program product, and method are provided for jointly learning dictionary based rules and dictionary candidates. Natural language text is received and parsed into subsets, with the subset being subjected to natural language processing to identify one or more verbs within the subset. The identified verbs are evaluated with respect to a dictionary and one or more rules. The evaluation is directed at each predicate in the rules with respect to the identified verbs. A neural network is leveraged to jointly induce modification of the rules and one or more dictionaries responsive to the evaluation.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for table recognition in PDF documents are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes discretizing one or more contiguous areas of a PDF document; identifying one or more white-space separator lines within the one or more discretized contiguous areas of the PDF document; detecting one or more candidate table regions within the one or more discretized contiguous areas of the PDF document by clustering the one or more white-space separator lines into one or more grids; and outputting at least one of the candidate table regions as a finalized table in accordance with scores assigned to each of the one or more candidate table regions based on (i) border information and (ii) cell structure information.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for constraint tracking and inference generation are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes parsing descriptions of one or more user-provided constraints pertaining to data within a target system, parsing truth value assignments to the user-provided constraints, and deriving a truth value for at least one of the user-provided constraints that does not correspond to a known truth value, wherein said deriving comprises performing a logical inference utilizing known truth values of one or more of the user-provided constraints. The computer-implemented method also includes storing, in a database, (i) the user-provided constraints, (ii) the known truth values, and (iii) the at least one derived truth value, and outputting the at least one derived truth value, one or more identified contradictions among the known truth values, and/or an indication that one or more unknown truth values corresponding to the user-provided constraints remain unknown.
