Abstract: A system and method for an AI-based Automated Software Application Development Platform which intelligently gathers requirements from a business analyst and generates a runnable software application from those requirements. The AI-based platform enables the business analyst with no technical knowledge to visually model their requirements rapidly without requiring any programming Using the abstract requirements architecture and the platform, the analyst creates requirements models for the application's business processes and business tasks for each of the processes including defining the supporting information needs. The system intelligently assists the user in defining the information needs for each of the business processes and their tasks. Once the requirements models are created by the analyst with the help of the platform, the platform automatically designs and creates an appropriate persistent canonical data model for the application from the defined information needs.

Abstract: A discharged electrochemical cell as described herein comprises an electrochemically reactive metal-containing cathode (e.g., Li, Na, Mg, or Zn; preferably Li) and a layered anode with an electrolyte therebetween. The layered anode comprises a conductive substrate and a reactive film of a metal, a semimetal, a metal oxide, or a semimetal oxide on the surface of the substrate. The reactive film is capable of reversibly alloying with, reversibly forming a mixed phase with, or reversibly reacting with, metal from cathode during charging of cell, and releasing the metal back to the cathode during discharge of the cell.

Abstract: Method and apparatus are provided for managing a distrusted system. The method comprises receiving, by a cluster management agent, a cluster specification update that includes a container image manifest content that describes an infrastructure of the distributed system; converting, by a runtime container engine of the cluster management agent, the container image manifest content into an operating system bootloader consumable disk image for rebooting one or more nodes in the distributed system; and initiating, by the cluster management agent, a system reboot using the operating system bootloader consumable disk image for a node in the distributed system to update the node to be in compliance with the cluster specification update. The cluster specification update is received via a local API of the cluster management agent in the absence of internet access or via a communication channel through an internet connection with the cluster management agent.

Abstract: A computerized method for determining an impact of a document on the specific concept of interest. The method can be configured to identify a cluster of clauses or sentences from a plurality of semantically similar clauses of the document and determine one or more representative concepts for the cluster of the document. An impact of each clause of the cluster is determined using one or more semantic parameters and impact analysis rules. The impact of the each sentence of the cluster is then determined using the impact of the respective clauses and subsequently, the impact of the cluster is determined using the impact of the respective sentences. Based on the impact of the cluster, an impact of the document on the one or more representative concepts is determined.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method to determine a part-of-speech (POS) category associated with a word in a text. The method includes determining a first set of candidate POS categories associated with the word based on a dictionary. The method further includes determining one or more contexts in which the word is used in the text based on a first set of rules. The method further includes determining a second set of candidate POS categories from the first set of POS categories based on the one or more contexts. The method furthermore includes determining the POS category from the second set of candidate POS categories based on a second set of rules.

Abstract: A computer based method and system for classifying a document into one or more categories. The method and system can be configured to identify one or more cluster of clauses or sentences from a plurality of semantically similar clauses of the document and determine one or more representative concepts for each cluster of the document. Accordingly, one or more categories for the document are determined from the one or more representative concepts and the document is classified into the one or more categories.

Abstract: Computer implemented natural language processing systems and methods for generating a semantic network for a specific concept of interest. The method includes identifying co-reference relationships between sentences or clusters of a corpus of documents so as to determine one or more clusters of co-referential sentences. One or more concepts or events are determined from the clauses or sentences of the clusters and relationship identification rules are processed to determine relationships between concepts or events identified in the clusters. Subsequently, the semantic network of the determined relationships is generated.

Abstract: A method and a system for automated content analysis to assess impact on one or more business organizations. Content is aggregated from at least one content provider. The aggregated content is classified in knowledge ontology on the basis of a plurality of attributes of the content. Subsequently, a score is assigned corresponding to the impact of the classified content on the business organization in accordance with a set of scoring rules. Finally, a graphical representation is generated showing a cumulative score corresponding to the impact of the content on the business organization assessed during a predefined time period.
