  • Patent number: 11868716
    Abstract: One or more computer processors parse a received natural language question into an abstract meaning representation (AMR) graph. The one or more computer processors enrich the AMR graph into an extended AMR graph. The one or more computer processors transform the extended AMR graph into a query graph utilizing a path-based approach, wherein the query graph is a directed edge-labeled graph. The one or more computer processors generate one or more answers to the natural language question through one or more queries created utilizing the query graph.

  • Patent number: 11640540
    Abstract: A method for assigning weights to a knowledge graph includes extracting information from a knowledge graph. The information including entities extracted from nodes of the knowledge graph and relations extracted from edges of the knowledge graph. A shortest path generator receives the extracted entities and relations, and potential assigned weights from a heuristic data repository. Weights for the edges of the knowledge graph are determined. The weights are assigned to the edges of the knowledge graph.

  • Patent number: 11429876
    Abstract: One embodiment of the invention provides a method for natural language processing (NLP). The method comprises extracting knowledge outside of text content of a NLP instance by extracting a set of subgraphs from a knowledge graph associated with the text content. The set of subgraphs comprises the knowledge. The method further comprises encoding the knowledge with the text content into a fixed size graph representation by filtering and encoding the set of subgraphs. The method further comprises applying a text embedding algorithm to the text content to generate a fixed size text representation, and classifying the text content based on the fixed size graph representation and the fixed size text representation.
