Abstract: The invention provides a relevance feedback system and computer-implemented method for performing a search in a vector space comprising a first number of target vectors. The method comprises forming a first search query, determining a second number of first search hit vectors among the first number of target vectors based on the first search query vector using a first distance function, determining a third number of flagged vectors, determining a vector subspace spanned by the flagged vectors and/or a second distance function by utilizing the flagged vectors, and determining a plurality of second hit vectors among the target vectors based on the first search query vector and the vector subspace and/or the second distance function.

Abstract: The invention provides a system and method for analyzing similarity of natural language data. The system comprises a neural network subsystem adapted for reading graph format input data comprising a plurality of nodes having node values, and a similarity estimation subsystem utilizing the neural network subsystem and being trained for estimating similarity of a first and a second graphs, the similarity estimation subsystem being capable of producing at least one similarity value. In addition, there is provided a similarity explainability subsystem adapted to calculate importance values for a plurality of nodes or subgraphs of the second graph, which are used to create a reduced second graph indicate sub-blocks of the second block of natural language.

Abstract: A method of searching patent documents comprising reading a plurality of patent documents each comprising a specification and a converted into specification graphs and claim graphs. The graphs contain nodes each having a first natural language unit extracted from the specification or claim as a node value, and edges between the nodes determined based on at least one second natural language unit extracted from the specification or claim. A machine learning model is trained using an algorithm capable of travelling through the graphs according to the edges and utilizing said node values for forming a trained machine learning model. The method comprises reading a fresh graph and utilizing the trained machine learning model for determining a subset of patent documents.

Abstract: The invention provides a natural language search system and method. The system comprises a digital data storage means for storing a plurality of blocks of natural language and data graphs corresponding to said blocks. First data processing means are adapted to convert said blocks to said graphs, which are stored in said storage means. The graphs contain a plurality of nodes each containing as node value a natural language unit extracted from said blocks. There are also provided second data processing means for executing a machine learning algorithm capable of travelling said graphs and reading the node values for forming a trained machine learning model based on nodal structures of the graphs and node values of the graphs and third data processing means adapted to read a fresh graph and to utilize said model for determining a subset of said blocks of natural language based on the fresh graph.
