Method and apparatus for situational analysis text generation
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for generating a situational analysis text by transforming data that is expressed in a non-linguistic format into a format that can be expressed linguistically in a situational analysis text, the method comprising:
- assigning, by a processor and in response to an identification of an alert condition, at least one data channel on which the alert condition was identified, as a primary data channel;
determining, by the processor and in response to the identification of the alert condition, whether one or more additional data channels that are identified as related to the primary data channel are to be assigned as one or more related data channels, wherein the one or more related data channels are a subset of one or more monitored data channels;
generating a data structure representing a refined order of a plurality of messages instantiated based on the primary data channel and the one or more related data channels, the refined order based on the identified alert condition; and
generating, using a natural language generation system that is configured to execute on the processor, the situational analysis text for display via a computing device, the situational analysis text generated based at least on the data structure, wherein at least a portion of the situational analysis text is generated in response to the identification of the alert condition.

Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are described herein that are configured to generate a situational analysis text. In some example embodiments, a method is provided that comprises generating a set of messages based on one or more key events in a primary data channel and one or more significant events in one or more related data channels in response to an alert condition. The method of this embodiment may also include generating a situational analysis text based on the set of messages and the relationships between them. In some example embodiments, the situational analysis text is configured to linguistically express the one or more key events, the one or more significant events, and the relationships between the one or more key events and the one or more significant events.

14. An apparatus for generating a situational analysis text that is configured to transform underlying data that is expressed in a non-linguistic format into a format that can be expressed linguistically in a situational analysis text, the apparatus comprising at least one processor;
- and at least one memory including computer program code, at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to;
access, using a data analyzer that is stored in the at least one memory and executed on the at least one processor input raw data from one or more monitored data channels over a network and to identify, in response to an identification of an alert condition, at least one data channel of the one or more monitored data channels as the primary data channel based on the identification of the alert condition, wherein the data analyzer is further configured to determine, in response to the identification of the alert condition, whether one or more additional data channels that are to be assigned as one or more related data channels, wherein the one or more related data channels are a subset of one or more monitored data channels; generate, using a data interpreter that is stored in the memory and executed on the processor, from the input raw data, language independent data structures that collect underlying data in the primary data channel and the one or more related data channels such that the underlying data is linguistically expressible, wherein the language independent data structures represent a refined order of the underlying data in the primary data channel and the one or more related data channels, and wherein the refined order is based on the identified alert condition; and input, using a natural language generation system that is stored in the memory and executed on the processor, the one or more generated language independent data structures to determine the content of the situational analysis text, wherein the situational analysis text is generated for display via a computing device based at least on the data in the primary data channel and at least one of the one or more related data channels, and wherein at least a portion of the situational analysis text is generated in response to the identification of the alert condition. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
- and at least one memory including computer program code, at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to;
