1. A method for modeling information from a set of documents, comprising:
- importing a set of concepts and corresponding extractors;
creating a model including representations of the concepts;
based on a user selection of a representation of a first concept, extracting information related to the first concept from the set of documents using the corresponding extractor;
facilitating an update, by a user, to the extracted information; and
based on the user update of the extracted information, defining an additional concept for the model.

Abstract
Systems and methods for modeling information from a set of documents are disclosed. A tool allows a user to model concepts of interest and extract information from a set of documents in an editable format. The extracted information includes a list of instances of a document from the set of documents that contains the selected concept. The user may modify the extracted information to create subsets of information, add new concepts to the model, and share the model with others.

10. A method for personalizing a model of information, comprising:
-
obtaining a set of documents; receiving the model that contains concepts and corresponding extractors; extracting information related to the concepts from the set of documents using the corresponding extractors; and selecting at least some of the extracted information to define an additional concept related to a context; adding the additional concept to the model; and displaying the model including the additional concept. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method for annotating a set of documents in a model of information, comprising:
-
downloading a set of documents; receiving the model, wherein the model contains concepts and corresponding extractors; extracting information related to the concepts from the set of documents using the corresponding extractors; receiving a function to calculate a status of a document in the set of documents; and after extracting information, automatically annotating a document in the set of documents based on the function. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21)

22. A method for modeling information from a set of documents, comprising:
-
importing a set of concepts and corresponding extractors; creating a model including representations of a first concept and a second concept; establishing a definitional dependency between the first concept and the second concept; based on a user selection of a representation of the first concept, extracting information related to the first concept from the set of documents using the corresponding extractor; after extracting information related to the first concept, receiving a modification of the second concept; and after receiving the modification of the second concept, updating the extracted information related to the first concept using the definitional dependency between the first concept and the second concept. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24)

25. A system for modeling information from a set of documents, comprising:
-
an importing component configured to import a set of concepts and corresponding extractors; a modeling component configured to create a model including representations of the concepts; an extraction component configured to extract information, based on a user selection of a representation of a first concept, related to the first concept from the set of documents using the corresponding extractor; a database configured to store the time of extraction of information; and an update component configured to facilitate an update, by the user, to the extracted information.
