  • Patent number: 11393141
    Abstract: A data-processing system identifies entities and relationships between entities that are recited in a set of documents. By identifying differently-named entities that share similar sets of relationships, the system is able to identify differently-named, but identical entities recited in the set of documents. The resulting entity and relationship map may be displayed to an end-user for intelligence analysis. In some examples, the end-user may make corrections to the relationship map which can then be used by the system to improve the inferences produced.
