  • Patent number: 10089390
    Abstract: Systems and associated methods for automated and semi-automated building of domain models for documents are described. Embodiments provide an approach to discover an information model by mining documentation about a particular domain captured in the documents. Embodiments classify the documents into one or more types corresponding to concepts using indicative words, identify candidate model elements (concepts) for document types, identify relationships both within and across document types, and consolidate and learn a global model for the domain.

  • Patent number: 9373090
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system, method, and program product for predicting the classification of a work-item notification generated by an issue tracking system. A computing device analyzes a new work-item notification using a trained binary classifier that was trained using at least a past and/or current work-item history that was collected as a tuple that includes information reflecting the workitem-ID, actor, timestamp, attribute, work-item start-value, and work-item end-value. The computing device, in response to analyzing the new work-item notification, predicts a classification of the new work-item notification. In an embodiment, the classification is used for display of the new work-item notification.

  • Patent number: 9087236
    Abstract: An example embodiment disclosed is a system for automated model extraction of documents containing flow diagrams. An extractor is configured to extract from the flow diagrams flow graphs. The extractor further extracts nodes and edges, and relational, geometric and textual features for the extracted nodes and edges. A classifier is configured to recognize process semantics based on the extracted nodes and edges, and the relational, geometric and textual features of the extracted nodes and edges. A process modeling language code is generated based on the recognized process semantics. Rules to recognize patterns in process diagrams may be determined using supervised learning and/or unsupervised learning. During supervised learning, an expert labels example flow diagrams so that a classifier can derive the classification rules. During unsupervised learning flow diagrams are clustered based on relational, geometric and textual features of nodes and edges.

  • Patent number: 9038026
    Abstract: A computer system, method and computer program product for automatically converting, through automating-test-automation software, a manual test case representation (in a natural language), for testing a target software, into a machine-readable test case representation. In preferred embodiments, the machine-readable test case is in the form of a keyword-based test case that is made from action-target-data tuples. The automation-test-software uses a methodical process of trial-and-error to resolve ambiguities that are generally present (and generally resolvable by humans) in the manual test case representation.
