  • Publication number: 20220051083
    Abstract: A method trains a recursive reasoning unit (RRU). The method receives a graph for a set of words and a matrix for a different set of words. The graph maps each word in the set of words to a node with node label and indicates a relation between adjacent nodes by an edge with edge label. The matrix indicates word co-occurrence frequency of the different set of words. The method discovers, by the RRU, reasoning paths from the graph for word pairs by mapping word pairs from the set of words into a source word and a destination word and finding the reasoning paths therebetween. The method predicts word co-occurrence frequency using the reasoning paths. The method updates, responsive to the word co-occurrence frequency, model parameters of the RRU until a difference between a predicted and true word occurrence are less than a threshold amount to provide a trained RRU.

  • Publication number: 20220044200
    Abstract: A method performs actions based on business need matching. A set of business need documents are filtered for relevance with respect to a query business need document to remove irrelevant documents based on business need relevance criteria. Hidden business intentions in remaining business need documents are extracted from the set after the filtering. For the query document with respect to the remaining business need documents, the following are computed: a business intention-based matching score, a business entity-based matching score, and an action modeling based matching score. Using an ensemble method, the scores are integrated into a final score, where higher scoring ones of the remaining business need documents more match a business need of the query business need document. Using an automated manufacturing system, a hardware item is co-manufactured responsive to a joint manufacturing venture derived from the final score.
