INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18274197 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that expands a taxonomy by generating new phrases and associating them with existing phrases using a language model.
- The obtaining section of the apparatus acquires a taxonomy showing relationships between multiple phrases.
- The generating section creates new phrases that are different from the existing ones, based on a first sentence group.
- The expanding section then enhances the taxonomy by linking the new phrases with the original ones.
- Potential Applications:**
This technology could be applied in content generation, search engines, and natural language processing systems.
- Problems Solved:**
This innovation helps in improving the accuracy and efficiency of taxonomies by adding new phrases and expanding relationships between them.
- Benefits:**
- Enhanced taxonomy accuracy - Improved information retrieval - Better understanding of relationships between phrases
- Potential Commercial Applications:**
"Enhancing Taxonomies with New Phrases Using Language Models"
- Possible Prior Art:**
One possible prior art could be the use of language models in natural language processing systems to improve text generation and understanding.
- Unanswered Questions:**
- How does the apparatus determine the relevance of the new phrases to the existing taxonomy?**
The abstract does not provide details on the specific criteria or algorithms used to associate the new phrases with the existing ones.
- What language model is utilized by the generating and expanding sections of the apparatus?**
The abstract mentions the use of a language model but does not specify which specific model is employed in the process.
Original Abstract Submitted
In order to expand a taxonomy more accurately, an information processing apparatus () includes: an obtaining section () that obtains a taxonomy which indicates a relationship between a plurality of phrases; a generating section () that generates a new phrase which differs from each of the plurality of phrases, with reference to a first sentence group; and an expanding section () that expands the taxonomy by associating the new phrase with any of the plurality of phrases. One or both of the generating section () and the expanding section () use a language model.
