System and Method for Automatically Detecting and Interactively Displaying Information About Entities, Activities, and Events from Multiple-Modality Natural Language Sources
First Claim
1. A method for automatically extracting and organizing information by a processing device from a plurality of data sources, comprising:
- applying to the data sources a natural language processing information extraction pipeline that includes an automatic detection of entities;
identifying information about detected entities by analyzing products of the natural language processing pipeline;
grouping identified information into equivalence classes containing equivalent information;
creating at least one displayable representation of the equivalence classes;
computing an order in which the at least one displayable representation is displayed; and
producing a combined representation of the equivalence classes that respects the order in which the displayable representation is displayed.

Abstract
A method for automatically extracting and organizing information by a processing device from a plurality of data sources is provided. A natural language processing information extraction pipeline that includes an automatic detection of entities is applied to the data sources. Information about detected entities is identified by analyzing products of the natural language processing pipeline. Identified information is grouped into equivalence classes containing equivalent information. At least one displayable representation of the equivalence classes is created. An order in which the at least one displayable representation is displayed is computed. A combined representation of the equivalence classes that respects the order in which the displayable representation is displayed is produced.

6. A method for processing information by a processing device, the method comprising:
-
receiving a user query; inferring a user query intention from the user query to develop an inferred user intention; and automatically generating a page in response to the user query by adaptively building a template that corresponds to the inferred user intention using natural processing of multiple modalities comprising at least one of text, audio and video. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A method for automatically extracting and organizing information by a processing device from a corpus of documents having multiple modalities of information in multiple languages for display to a user, the method comprising:
-
browsing the corpus of documents to identify and incrementally retrieve documents containing audio/video files; transcribing text from the audio/video files to provide a textual representation; translating text of the textural representation that is in a foreign language; incrementally extracting desired information about at least one of entities, activities, and events; organizing extracted information; and converting organized extracted information into a navigable display presentable to the user. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
