Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110119577METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ASSOCIATING A PLURALITY OF PROCESSING FUNCTIONS WITH A TEXT - A method and apparatus are provided for associating a plurality of processing functions with a text, the method comprising parsing the text into a plurality of propositions detecting at least one proposition having one of a narrative style and a descriptive style; for each of the detected at least one proposition; identifying a subject and a corresponding action at a given proposition; associating a first set of values to a first plurality of properties related to the subject of the given proposition; associating a second set of values to a second plurality of properties related to a kernel comprising the subject and the corresponding action of the given proposition; associating a third set of values to a third plurality of properties related to the given proposition and mapping at least one of the plurality of processing functions to the given proposition using at least one of the first set of values, the second set of values and the third set of values to thereby associate a plurality of functions to the text.05-19-2011
