  • Patent number: 11774264
    Abstract: In methods and systems for providing information to a user relating to a point-of-interest (POI), a query is received via a communication network. A processor receives information relating to at least one POI based on the received query. The retrieved information comprises a set of retrieved POI tips relating to the POI. Each of the set of retrieved POI tips is previously extracted from POI free-text reviews and respectively associated in the data storage with one or more semantic categories based on a predefined tip ontology. The processor generates a user interface interactively displaying the retrieved POI tips and the semantic categories associated with each of the POI tips. The displayed POI tips are sorted by their associated displayed semantic categories. The generated user interface is transmitted to a computing device for display.
