Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system, program product, and method for dictionary membership management directed at identifying ambiguity in semantic resources. A dictionary of seed terms is applied to a text corpus and matching items in the corpus are identified. The linguistic properties for each matching item are characterized and a context pattern of each matching item is constructed. Each context pattern is applied to the dictionary and matching content between the seed terms and the context pattern is identified and quantified. Lexicon items from the dictionary that have anomalous behavior reflected in the quantification are identified. One or more seed words identified as having anomalous behavior are selectively removed from the dictionary.

Abstract: A system includes a user model module that generates a plurality of topic-specific user knowledge models for each user of a plurality of users, each topic-specific user knowledge model representing a level of knowledge possessed by a respective user on a single topic from a set of globally defined topics shared among the plurality of users, a expertise model building module that generates a plurality of topic-specific expert knowledge models, each topic-specific expert knowledge model representing an aggregate level of knowledge possessed by a plurality of expert users on a single topic from a set of globally defined topics shared among the plurality of users, and a processor of a computer that executes instructions for comparing the topic-specific user knowledge model of the first user with the topic-specific expert knowledge model for a respective topic to determine a distance between a user knowledge level and an aggregate expert knowledge level for the topic.

Abstract: Detecting propensity profile for a person may comprise receiving artifacts associated with the person; detecting profile characteristics for the person based on the artifacts; receiving a plurality of predefined profiles comprising a plurality of characteristics and relationships between the characteristics over time, each of the plurality of predefined profiles specifying an indication of propensity; matching the profile characteristics for the person with one or more of the plurality of predefined profiles; and outputting one or more propensity indicators based on the matching, the propensity indicators comprising at least an expressed strength of a given propensity in the person at a given time.

Abstract: An approach is disclosed that receives, at a wearable sensing element worn by a user, sensor data that pertains to the user's physiological functions. Physiological states pertaining to the user are calculated from the received sensor data, with the physiological states including both physical states and mental states. The calculated physiological state is matched to an environmental action states, and environmental actions are responsively performed to change a physical environment of the user.

Abstract: A method comprising receiving an item via a computer input device, comparing the item to a plurality of lexicons using a processor, and determining, using the processor and based upon the comparison, that the item is part of a fragment matching at least one of the plurality of lexicons. The method also comprises storing, using the processor, the fragment in a section of a document determined based on the at least one of the plurality of lexicons, and receiving at least one other item via the computer input device after the fragment is stored in the section.

Abstract: A computer program product comprising a computer-readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to receive a document having multiple section headers, segment the document into at least first and second sections based on the section headers, segment items in the first section into fragments and identify a section type for each of the fragments, determine that the identified section type for at least one of the fragments better matches a type of the second section than it matches a type of the first section, and re-locate the at least one of the fragments to the second section.

Abstract: A method comprising receiving a document having multiple sections of different types using a processor. The method also comprises obtaining a plurality of lexicons using the processor, each of the lexicons for interpreting fragments in one or more of the section types. The method further comprises interpreting fragments in a first section of the multiple sections using the processor and one or more lexicons. The method still further comprises determining, based upon the interpretation and using the processor, that a fragment in the first section is misplaced. The method still further comprises re-locating, using the processor, the misplaced fragment to a second section of the multiple sections in the document to generate a re-organized document. The method additionally includes storing the re-organized document in a hardware storage system using the processor.

Abstract: A system, comprising an input device configured to receive a first item and a second item, and a processor communicably coupled to the input device and configured to determine that the first item is a fragment matching a lexicon, and place the fragment in a section of a document, the section selected based on the matching lexicon, wherein the processor is configured to perform the determination and the placement after it receives the first item but before it receives the second item.
