==DETERMINING TOPICS FOR TAXONOMIES - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240320254 titled 'DETERMINING TOPICS FOR TAXONOMIES

The patent application describes systems and methods for determining topics associated with nodes of a taxonomy to aid in creating or modifying the taxonomy. This involves generating associations and groundings in two layers: first in a corpus of queries, then in topics associated with tokens, which are finally linked to nodes of the taxonomy. This process enables easier access to content items stored by an online service, with the potential for transitive mappings to content items.

* Systems and methods for topic determination in taxonomies
* Two-layer approach: associations in queries corpus, then in topics linked to tokens
* Facilitates access to content items stored by online services
* Transitive mappings from taxonomy nodes to content items
* Improves taxonomy creation and modification processes

### Potential Applications:
- Content management systems
- Information retrieval systems
- Online services and platforms

### Problems Solved:
- Streamlining taxonomy creation and modification
- Enhancing access to content items
- Improving search and retrieval processes

### Benefits:
- Efficient organization of content
- Enhanced user experience
- Better content discoverability

### Commercial Applications:
#### Title: Enhanced Content Management Solutions
This technology can be utilized by content management companies to improve the organization and accessibility of their stored content, leading to better user engagement and satisfaction. It can also be integrated into online platforms to enhance search functionalities and user experience.

### Prior Art:
Further research can be conducted in the field of taxonomy creation and content organization to explore existing technologies and methodologies that address similar challenges.

### Frequently Updated Research:
Stay updated on advancements in content management systems, information retrieval technologies, and taxonomy creation methods to leverage the latest innovations in the field.

#### Questions about Topic Determination in Taxonomies:
1. How does the two-layer approach in topic determination improve taxonomy creation?
   - The two-layer approach allows for a more granular and accurate association of topics with nodes in the taxonomy, leading to a more organized and efficient structure.
2. What are the potential implications of transitive mappings from taxonomy nodes to content items?
   - Transitive mappings can significantly enhance the accessibility and discoverability of content items, improving user experience and search functionalities.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

systems and methods for determining one or more topics that may be associated and/or grounded with a node of a taxonomy to facilitate the creation and/or modification of the taxonomy. the one or more topics can be determined by generating two layers of associations and/or groundings. in a first layer, tokens can be associated and/or grounded in a corpus of queries, and in a second layer, topics can be associated and/or grounded in the tokens. the topics can then be associated with and/or grounded in nodes of a taxonomy which can facilitate access to content items stored and maintained by an online service. further, in exemplary implementations where the content items include associations and/or mappings to the corpus of queries, the nodes of the taxonomy (which are associated with one or more topics) can be transitively mapped to the content items.
