The similarity is generated with obtained similarity values.

Abstract: Disclosed aspects relate to analytics engine selection management. A set of reference data may be ingested by a first analytics engine to compile a first set of characteristic data. The set of reference data may be ingested by a second analytics engine to compile a second set of characteristic data. The first set of characteristic data may be compiled for the first analytics engine. The second set of characteristic data may be compiled for the second analytics engine. A set of distinct attributes related to the first and second analytics engines may be determined based on the first and second sets of characteristic data.

Abstract: One or more embodiments provide a neurosynaptic circuit that includes multiple neurosynaptic core circuits that: perform image distortion correction by converting a source image to a destination image by: taking as input a sequence of image frames of a video with one or more channels per frame, and converting dimensions and pixel distortion coefficients of each frame as one or more corresponding neuronal firing events. Each distorted pixel is mapped to zero or more undistorted pixels by processing each neuronal firing event corresponding to each pixel of each image frame. Corresponding pixel intensity values of each distorted pixel are processed to output undistorted pixels for each image frame as neuronal firing events for a spike representation of the destination image.

Abstract: One or more embodiments provide method for image distortion correction including receiving, by multiple neurosynaptic core circuits, a set of inputs comprising image dimensions and pixel distortion coefficients for at least one image frame via at least one input core circuit. Each distorted pixel is mapped to zero or more undistorted pixels by processing the set of inputs corresponding to each pixel of the at least one image frame by the at least one input core circuit. Corresponding pixel intensity values of each distorted pixel are routed to output undistorted pixels for each image frame via the at least one output core circuit.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for disambiguating meaning of terms. A natural language processing system obtains a first corpora of words used in a first sense and a second corpora of the same words that are used in a second sense. Each of these corpora of words may be associated with different linguistic domains. The natural language processing system generates a first and a second set of patterns using both the first and second corpora of words, respectively. A question passage is then received by the natural language processing system. The natural language processing system examines a word of interest in the question passage. The user is then notified that the word of interest is being used in the first sense or the second sense in response to identifying the word of interest in only the first set of patterns or the second set of patterns, respectively.

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 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.

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 mechanism is provided in a data processing system comprising at least one processor and at least one memory, the at least one memory comprising instructions executed by the at least one processor to cause the at least one processor to implement an automated lexicon expansion for an identified corpus. For a selected corpus in a set of corpora, the mechanism determines an estimated number of new terms in the selected corpus that are not in the lexicon based on a frequency count known terms in the selected corpus. Responsive to the estimated number of new terms in the selected corpus being greater than a threshold, the mechanism performs lexicon expansion using the selected corpus to form an expanded lexicon. Responsive to the estimated number of new terms in the selected corpus not being greater than the threshold, the mechanism halts lexicon expansion.
