20100063799Process for Constructing a Semantic Knowledge Base Using a Document Corpus - Related free-text documents, a corpus, are used to empirically derive a semantic knowledge base through a method in which documents are segmented into unique sentences, and then used to define sentential propositions which are arranged in a knowledge hierarchy. The method takes compound natural language sentences and transforms them to simple sentences by a process that is a part of the invention. A knowledge editor enables a domain expert using the methods of the invention to map the sentences in the corpus to sentential proposition(s). The resulting knowledge base can be used to semantically analyze documents in data mining and decision support applications, and can assist word processors or speech recognition devices. The invention is illustrated in connection with radiology reports, but it has wide applicability.03-11-2010

20100138639SANDBOXED EXECUTION OF PLUG-INS - A sandbox architecture that isolates and identifies misbehaving plug-ins (intentional or unintentional) to prevent system interruptions and failure. Based on plug-in errors, the architecture automatically disables and blocks registration of the bad plug-in via a penalty point system. Publishers of bad plug-ins are controlled by disabling the bad plug-ins and registering the publisher in an unsafe list. Isolation can be provided in multiple levels, such as machine isolation, process isolation, secure accounts with limited access rights, and application domain isolation within processes using local security mechanisms. A combination of the multiple levels of isolation achieves a high level of security. Isolation provides separation from other plug-in executions and restriction to system resources such as file system and network IP. Moreover, the architecture is highly scalable, stateless, and low administration architecture for the execution of the plug-ins, which can be scaled by adding/removing additional sandbox servers on-the-fly without prior configuration.06-03-2010
