  • Publication number: 20220139386
    Abstract: A system and a method for predicting punctuations for a text. The text is in a logographic language having characters. Most of the characters contain sub-characters representing meaning of the characters. The text lacks punctuations. The method includes receiving the text; providing a sub-character encoding based on a sub-character input editor (IME), such that each character in the logographic language corresponds to a specific sub-character code; encoding the text using the sub-characters encoding to obtain sub-character codes; generating sentence pieces from the sub-character codes; representing the sentence pieces by sentence piece vectors; and subjecting the vectors of the sentence pieces to a neural network to obtain the punctuations for the text. The method may be implemented using a computing device.

  • Patent number: 11003638
    Abstract: A method and system for constructing an evolving ontology database. The method includes: receiving a plurality of data entries; calculating semantic similarity scores between any two of the data entries; clustering the data entries into a multiple current themes based on the semantic similarity scores; selecting, new concepts from the current themes by comparing the current themes with a plurality of previous themes prepared using previous data entries; and updating the evolving ontology database using the new concepts. The semantic score between any two of the data entries are calculated by: semantic similarity score=?i=0nsie?j=0kwj×f j, where si is weight of features sources, fj is a feature similarity between the two of the data entries, wj is a weight of fj, and j, k and n are positive integers.
