First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for analyzing electronic opinion data, said method comprising the steps of:
- receiving electronic opinion data, wherein the electronic opinion data includes words of a natural language;
mapping the electronic opinion data to unifying opinion objects, wherein the unifying opinion objects are provided as a controlled natural language and include entity objects, opinion word objects, and subject objects, each of the opinion word objects being descriptive of at least one of the entity objects, and representing an opinion of at least one of the subject objects; and
providing a presentation having at least one portion corresponding to at least one of said unifying opinion objects.

Abstract
The field of the disclosure relates generally to systems and methods for managing opinion networks with interactive opinion flows and more particularly, but not exclusively, to systems and methods for collecting and analyzing electronic opinion data. A method for analyzing electronic opinion data includes the steps of receiving electronic opinion data, wherein the opinion data includes words of a natural language; mapping the opinion data to unifying opinion objects, the unifying opinion objects provided as a controlled natural language; and providing a presentation having at least one portion corresponding to at least one of said unifying opinions. In an alternative embodiment, the method further includes ranking the unifying opinion objects in an opinion graph to generate per-user relevance.

16. A network-based system for analyzing electronic opinion data in an opinion network comprising:
-
an opinion capture server accessible over a data network; one or more user devices configured to access opinion-enhanced Web services over said data network; a computer program product operatively coupled to the opinion capture server, the computer program product having a computer-usable medium having a sequence of instructions which, when executed by a processor, causes said processor to execute a process that analyzes electronic opinion data, said process comprising; receiving electronic opinion data from the one or more user devices, wherein the electronic opinion data includes words of a natural language; mapping the electronic opinion data to unifying opinion objects, wherein the unifying opinion objects are provided as a controlled natural language and include entity objects, opinion word objects, and subject objects, each of the opinion word objects being descriptive of at least one of the entity objects, and representing an opinion of at least one of the subject objects; and providing a presentation to the one or more user devices over said data network, wherein the presentation includes at least one portion corresponding to at least one of said unifying opinion objects. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38)
