Patent number: 11934434Abstract: Disambiguation of search keywords to expert systems is performed through the application of a semantic ranking function to determine a classification category with confidence for a given query. The semantic ranking function is executed through an application of a semantic distance distribution profile score through analysis of user problem statement (UPS) with nodes in the taxonomy in the same vector space to create a search that combines a user problem statement and a taxonomical node in the search engine index. The distribution profile score calculation is provenance influenced to derive geographic, cultural, and demographic provenance for a user problem statement.Type: GrantFiled: August 16, 2019Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Craig M.
