9. A computer program product comprising a computer-readable storage medium having a set of instructions stored therein which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to determine a significance ranking for discovered relationships by:
-
ingesting a first body of information for a domain of knowledge; receiving a natural language question corresponding to the domain of knowledge, the natural language question being in the form of a complete human language question; parsing the natural language question to identify a focus; mining the body of information for entities and relationships among entities based on the focus; generating a targeting document for the domain of knowledge containing a first relationship and a second relationship, the first and second relationships being among entities mined from the first body of information; recording mining data for relationships in the targeting document in support of an importance criteria; ranking the first relationship with respect to the second relationship according to the importance criteria as a set of ranking data; and storing the targeting document including the set of ranking data in the first body of information for on-demand access during a question-answer session corresponding to the domain of knowledge. - View Dependent Claims (10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 25, 27, 29, 30)

17. A computer system comprising:
-
a processor set; and a computer readable storage medium; wherein; the processor set is structured, located, connected, and/or programmed to run program instructions stored on the computer readable storage medium; and the program instructions which, when executed by the processor set, cause the processor set to determine a significance ranking for discovered relationships by; ingesting a first body of information for a domain of knowledge; receiving a natural language question corresponding to the domain of knowledge, the natural language question being in the form of a complete human language question; parsing the natural language question to identify a focus; mining the body of information for entities and relationships among entities based on the focus; generating a targeting document for the domain of knowledge containing a first relationship and a second relationship, the first and second relationships being among entities determined from the first body of information; recording mining data for relationships in the targeting document in support of an importance criteria; ranking the first relationship with respect to the second relationship according to the importance criteria as a set of ranking data; and storing the targeting document including the set of ranking data in the first body of information for on-demand access during a question-answer session corresponding to the domain of knowledge. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 22, 23, 24, 26, 28)
