Methods and apparatus for classifying terminology utilizing a knowledge catalog
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method for processing words for classification, said method comprising the steps of:
- storing, in memory of said computer system, a plurality of categories to classify at least one word;
generating a nominalized form for said word if said nominalized form exists for said word;
generating a noun form for said word if a noun form exists for said word;
generating a mass sense for said word if a mass sense exists for said word;
generating a count sense for said word if a count sense exists for said word; and
referencing said memory to associate, if generated, said nominalized form, said noun form, said mass sense, and said count sense of said word to said categories.

Abstract
A knowledge catalog includes a plurality of independent and parallel static ontologies to accurately represent a broad coverage of concepts that define knowledge. The actual configuration, structure and orientation of a particular static ontology is dependent upon the subject matter or field of the ontology in that each ontology contains a different point of view. The static ontologies store all senses for each word and concept. A knowledge classification system, that includes the knowledge catalog, is also disclosed. A knowledge catalog processor accesses the knowledge catalog to classify input terminology based on the knowledge concepts in the knowledge catalog. Furthermore, the knowledge catalog processor processes the input terminology prior to attachment in the knowledge catalog. The knowledge catalog further includes a dynamic level that includes dynamic hierarchies. The dynamic level adds details for the knowledge catalog by including additional words and terminology, arranged in a hierarchy, to permit a detailed and in-depth coverage of specific concepts contained in a particular discourse. The static and dynamic ontologies are relational such that the linking of one or more ontologies, or portions thereof, result in a very detailed organization of knowledge concepts.

4. A computer readable medium comprising a set of instructions stored therein, which when executed by a computer, causes the computer to perform the steps of:
-
storing, in memory of said computer system, a plurality of categories to classify at least one word; generating a nominalized form for said word if said nominalized form exists for said word; generating a noun form for said word if a noun form exists for said word; generating a mass sense for said word if a mass sense exists for said word; generating a count sense for said word if a count sense exists for said word; and referencing said memory to associate, if generated, said nominalized form, said noun form, said mass sense, and said count sense of said word to categories of said classification hierarchy. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6)

7. A computer system comprising:
-
memory for storing a plurality of categories to classify at least one word; and processing unit coupled to said memory for generating a nominalized form for said word if said nominalized form exists for said word, for generating a noun form for said word if a noun form exists for said word, for generating a mass sense for said word if a mass sense exists for said word, for generating a count sense for said word if a count sense exists for said word, and for referencing said memory to associate, if generated, said nominalized form, said noun form, said mass sense, and said count sense of said word to said categories. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)
