  • Patent number: 11880656
    Abstract: A method for execution by a computing device includes obtaining a phrase that includes string of words and generating a valid sequence of words utilizing the phrase. The method further includes identifying a set of identigens for each word of the valid sequence of words to produce sets of identigens. The method further includes identifying, for each identigen of the sets of identigens, a word type associated with phrase structure grammar rules to produce sets of identigen-type associations. The method further includes interpreting, utilizing the phrase structure grammar rules, the sets of identigen-type associations to produce an entigen group. The entigen group represents a most likely interpretation of the phrase.

  • Publication number: 20230252019
    Abstract: A method executed by a computing device includes determining whether a set of words are included in a word set. When the set of words are in the word set, the method further includes determining a set of identigens for each word of the word set to produce sets of identigens, where a set of identigens of the sets of identigens represents one or more different meanings of a word of the word set. The method further includes interpreting, using identigen pairing rules, the sets of identigens to produce an entigen set. The method further includes assigning a single new entigen to represent the entigen set, where the single new entigen represents a most likely meaning interpretation of the word set.

  • Patent number: 11176126
    Abstract: A method includes generating an initial entigen group for a query from existing entigens in a knowledge database and determining whether the initial entigen group provides a reliable response to the query. When the initial entigen group does not provide a reliable response to the query, the method further includes determining a desired entigen to add to the initial entigen group to produce an updated entigen group that leads to the reliable response to the query and creating the desired entigen based on obtained targeted data. The method further includes adding the desired entigen to the initial entigen group to produce the updated entigen group and determining whether the updated entigen group provides the reliable response to the query. When the updated entigen group provides the reliable response to the query, the method further includes outputting the reliable response.

  • Patent number: 10997368
    Abstract: A method includes generating a plurality of entigen groups from a set of phrases of a statement and identifying two plausible entigen groups based on a true meaning interpretation of the statement. The method further includes identifying a related entigen group based on a phrase of the statement and interpreting each of the two plausible entigen groups in light of the related entigen group to determine whether one of the two plausible entigen groups is a more likely interpretation of the statement than the other one of the two plausible entigen groups. When the one of the two plausible entigen groups is the more likely interpretation of the statement, the method further includes updating the one of the two plausible entigen groups using the related entigen group to produce an updated entigen group and adding the statement as the updated entigen group to a knowledge database.
