Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating quote-based search summaries from a plurality of documents includes receiving information identifying a meaning taxonomy, the meaning taxonomy including a normalized term and at least one syntactic structure that identifies an entity; locating, within at least one document of the plurality of documents, a statement attributable to the entity; receiving a search query comprising the normalized term; and displaying a summary of the at least one document, the summary including the statement.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating concept-based search summaries from a plurality of documents are provided. In one embodiment, a system may include interfaces to receive information identifying a meaning taxonomy including a normalized term and a search query including search terms. The system may be configured to identify documents relating to the search terms and normalized terms and display a concept-based summary of the documents, the summary including a syntactic structure associated with the normalized terms and search terms. In another embodiment, a method includes receiving a meaning taxonomy including normalized terms and search terms, identifying at least one document including the search terms and syntactic structures associated with the normalized terms, and display a search summary including the search terms and syntactic structures.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for analyzing electronic documents includes defining at least one search criterion for a plurality of index items relating to a subject; applying the at least one search criterion to a plurality of documents; determining, for each index item in the plurality of index items, a category index reflecting a degree to which the plurality of documents relates to the index item; and generating, with reference to the category index for each index item in the plurality of index items, a performance index reflecting a degree to which the plurality of documents relates to the subject.

Abstract: A method includes storing a meaning taxonomy including meaning loaded entities and associations between the meaning loaded entities and a plurality of syntactic structures; receiving, from a first source, first content including one or more first syntactic structures; identifying, based at least in part on identification criteria, one or more meaning loaded entities that are linked to the one or more first syntactic structures by one or more first associations of the plurality of associations, the identification criteria including at least one of a type of the first content, a document size of the first content, a publication date of the first content, and an importance of the meaning load entities; calculating a first content summary indicating a level of coverage of the meaning loaded entities within the first content; and generating a first visual representation of the first content summary.

Abstract: A method for generating a document summary includes identifying, in a document, a plurality of candidate summary sentences satisfying predefined criteria; determining at least one content feature of the document; generating a graph of relationships among the plurality of sentences; ordering the plurality of sentences based on at least one relationship involving a respective sentence; and generating a document summary from the ordered sentences, the document summary including the sentences most related to other sentences.

Abstract: A system including a memory storing a meaning taxonomy is provided. The meaning taxonomy includes meaning loaded entities and associations between meaning loaded entities and syntactic structures. Each association links a meaning loaded entity to a syntactic structure. The system includes a processor coupled with the memory and components executable by the processor configured to receive content generated by a source, the content including syntactic structures, identify meaning loaded entities that are linked to the syntactic structures by associations, calculate a content summary indicating a level of coverage of the meaning loaded entities within the content, and provide a representation of the summary to an external entity.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for an expert search engine. In one embodiment, a method may employ a computer based system to define a meaning taxonomy including one or more meaning loaded entities, associate documents to the meaning taxonomy based on a set of expert rules and the syntactic structures included in the documents and provide the results to a user. In another embodiment, a system includes interfaces for meaning taxonomy, expert rule and search criteria information. The information provided by these interfaces is then used to determine how a set of documents maps to meaning taxonomy to assist the user in locating documents that are most interesting from a meaning perspective and to provide a user with an interface to navigate the meaning taxonomy as it applies to the set of documents.
