  • Publication number: 20240028929
    Abstract: Original idea extraction from written data is provided by capturing expression as written text data, obtaining a knowledge graph representing concepts and relationships between the concepts, automatically topic modeling the written text data to ascertain thought units and identify respective concepts of the thought unit, mapping a thought unit to the knowledge graph, determining that the thought unit is an original idea, and based on determining that the thought unit is an original idea, storing a representation of the original idea to an idea repository and invoking processing of at least one computer.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 11017304
    Abstract: Original idea extraction from written data is provided by capturing expression as written text data, obtaining a knowledge graph representing concepts and relationships between the concepts automatically topic modeling the written text data to ascertain thought units and identify respective concepts of the thought unit, mapping a thought unit to the knowledge graph, determining that the thought unit is an original idea based on a graph distance in the knowledge graph between correlated concepts represented in the knowledge graph, and based on determining that the thought unit is an original idea, storing a representation of the original idea to an idea repository and invoking processing of at least one computer.
