Abstract: Systems and methods for examining text, such as incident reports, are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes specifying a client profile including at least one scenario of interest, the scenario of interest being formulated in an event calculus formalism; analyzing a portion of text for relevant information at least partially described by the scenario of interest; detecting relevant information including detecting a positive match between at least part of information relevant to the scenario of interest and at least part of the portion of text being analyzed; upon detecting such relevant information, extracting the relevant information; representing the extracted relevant information in the event calculus formalism; and performing an inference process on the extracted relevant information represented in the event calculus formalism.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing schema matching of multiple data dictionaries. Lexical graphs are generated for two or more data dictionaries. The lexical graphs include terms with definitions and identified links between terms. A data processing device determines if matches occur between the generated lexical graphs and outputs the result of the determination.
