  • Patent number: 10997228
    Abstract: A data processing system identifies a first topic for a first table, identifies a second topic for a second table, collects at least one first table attribute comprising at least one row name for the first table, and collects at least one second table attribute comprising at least one row name for the second table. The at least one semantic vector for the first table is compared with the at least one semantic vector for the second table to identify as related at least one row of the first table and at least one row of the second table. The at least one row of the first table and the at least one row of the second table are provided to a communication device with an identification as related.

  • Patent number: 10956915
    Abstract: A method, a device and a computer program for conformity determination of cross-regional affairs. The method comprises obtaining characteristics from a description of an affair at least crossing a local region and a non-local region. The method further comprises generating a multi-level constraint based on the characteristics from a knowledge base, and the knowledge base includes regulations for cross-regional affairs, and the multi-level constraint includes a local constraint associated with the local region and a non-local constraint associated with the local region and the non-local region. Moreover, the method also comprises determining conformity of the affair to the multi-level constraint. The method can determine the conformity of the cross-regional affairs automatically, thereby reducing the consumption of human resources and the inconformity risk in the cross-regional affairs.

    Abstract: A data processing system identifies a first topic for a first table, identifies a second topic for a second table, collects at least one first table attribute comprising at least one row name for the first table, and collects at least one second table attribute comprising at least one row name for the second table. The at least one first table attribute and the at least one second table attribute are placed in at least one semantic category. The at least one first table attribute is converted into at least one semantic vector for the first table, and the at least one second table attribute is converted into at least one semantic vector for the second table. The at least one semantic vector for the first table is compared with the at least one semantic vector for the second table to identify as related at least one row of the first table and at least one row of the second table.

  • Publication number: 20150310096
    Abstract: Comparing document contents is provided. An ontological concept is extracted from a text snippet of a corpus document. One or more feature vectors are constructed that include associative information that describes an ontology that includes the focused concept. A topic model is trained using the one or more feature vectors. First and second topic sets are respectively extracted from first and second documents using the topic model. One or more topics from the first topic set are matched, using the topic model, with one or more topics from the second topic set to construct a matched topic set. Semantic analyses are respectively performed on first and second text snippet sets, wherein the first and second text snippet sets are chosen based, at least in part, on the matched topic set. Text snippets are matched based, at least in part, on the first and second semantic analyses.
