  • Natural language text analytics
    Patent number: 8473498
    Abstract: A method of text analytics includes filtering a plurality of unfiltered records having unstructured data into at least a first group and a second group. The first group and said second group each include at least two records and the first group is different than the second group. The method includes determining a first proportion of occurrence for a term by comparing a first number of records having at least one occurrence of the term in the first group to a first total number of records in the first group, determining a second proportion of occurrence for the term by comparing a second number of records having at least one occurrence of the term in said second group to a second total number of records in the second group, and comparing the first proportion of occurrence to the second proportion of occurrence to yield a resultant comparison occurrence.
