20090249294 | CONVERTING RULES IN A RULE-BASED SYSTEM TO ONTOLOGICAL INFORMATION - A method and system provides one or more product type descriptions, and constructs a map between the sub-conditions of the product type descriptions and constructs in a Web Ontological Language (OWL). The method converts the product type description rules into new OWL classes by creating a new OWL class for each corresponding rule; adding the new OWL class to the OWL ontology; for each condition of the corresponding rule, extracting sub-conditions; for each the sub-condition extracted; creating new constructs for the new OWL class using the map; and adding new class restrictions to the new OWL class, wherein each of the new class restrictions relates to a corresponding condition of the corresponding rule. | 10-01-2009 |
20100017383 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PUBLICATION WEBSITE SUBSCRIPTION RECOMMENDATION BASED ON USER-CONTROLLED BROWSER HISTORY ANALYSIS - A method receives user restrictions and establishes a list of recognized publication websites. The publication websites comprise websites that provide, for example, research papers and research articles. The method periodically scans Internet browser history files located on different user's computers (as limited by the user restrictions) to identify publication websites within the Internet browser history files. The method analyzes the website addresses and metadata associated with the publication websites to identify the publication service providers utilized, and to identify the journals, titles, authors, keywords, and abstracts of research papers and research articles accessed. Then, the methods herein can generate statistics regarding the publication service providers, and statistics regarding research topics based on the journals, titles, authors, keywords, and abstracts. Thus, the methods herein output recommendations regarding preferred publication service providers and preferred research topics based on the statistics. | 01-21-2010 |
20100095194 | IMAGE BASED ANNOTATION AND METADATA GENERATION SYSTEM WITH EXPERIENCE BASED LEARNING - Methods and systems enhance a user's experience when working with documents and images. Such methods and systems, provide pictures, graphics, images, etc. related to words, phrases, sentences, etc. when a pointing device is hovered over the word or phrase to help the user to understand and remember the words, phrases, sentences, etc. being read, and/or increase the enjoyment of the user. | 04-15-2010 |
20100097633 | Knowledge-Based Content Sub-Setting Method For Variable Information Printing - A method receives a variable information print job and determines if any of the personalized content exceeds the size of a corresponding content area of the template. If the personalized content exceeds the size of a corresponding content area of the template, the method resolves such size inconsistencies (between the personalized content and the content area) by selectively removing and/or filtering portions of the personalized content according to the knowledge-based rules. | 04-22-2010 |
20140279732 | System for categorizing lists of words of arbitrary origin - The present disclosure provides for categorization of lists of words. The method comprises querying DBpedia to find the resources related to the given list of words. Once the resources are found, the corresponding media Wikipedia categories can be retrieved, as well as their ancestors, generating a graph of categories. A number of graph analysis algorithms can then be applied to the graph, each returning a selected category. For each algorithm a classifier is trained to decide whether the output of the algorithm is indeed the “best” category. An ensemble weighted majority voting can then be used to select the best category based on votes cast by each classifier. The disclosure demonstrates a more accurate selection of the best category and can include an ensemble majority rated voting algorithm comprising all voting members initially casting one vote; i.e., highest frequency, most frequently occurring word, least common ancestor and centrality measures. | 09-18-2014 |

20080243807 | NOTIFICATION METHOD FOR A DYNAMIC DOCUMENT SYSTEM - A dynamic document template contains a set of queries. Each query may include a query scope. The query scope may refer to a content of a source document that is maintained in a document collection. A content rule is applied to monitor the template for a change. A notification event is triggered when a change to the document collection results in an invalid query scope in the template. A notification event may also be triggered when a change to the document collection results in valid query but the template needs to be refreshed. An additional notification event may be triggered if the template is modified so that the resulting template is either invalid or needs to be refreshed with different content from the collection. | 10-02-2008 |
20080292215 | SELECTIVE TEXT FLIPPING AND IMAGE MIRRORING SYSTEM AND METHOD - Selectively flipping text and mirroring graphical elements of image without disrupting the readability of the overall image can be desirable. A multifunction device can manipulate an image by separating the image into a first object and a second object, processing the first object so as to mirror the first object about an axis, processing the second object so as to mirror a first position of the second object about the axis and arranging the second object at the mirrored position, and combining the first object and the second object to form an output image. The first object can include a graphical image and the second object can include text, and the second object can overlap the first object. | 11-27-2008 |
20100094793 | PRODUCT DESCRIPTION TRANSFORMATION METHODS AND SYSTEMS - Systems and methods for product description transformation use information about a specific Target Workflow that will be used to execute a job (Process Network), such as print job in a print shop. A knowledge/rule based system can mine facts from the Target Workflow and evaluate those facts using a knowledge base that will infer constraints and other information to be used during the actual transformation step. Differences between what is specified in a Product Description, such as a JDF Intent, and a Target Workflow can be reconciled to produce a workflow to manufacture a product. This information about the Target Workflow along with the information it uses from the JDF Intent (Product Description) is used to produce a Process Network (Workflow Plan/job) consistent with the JDF Intent and Target Workflow. | 04-15-2010 |
20100195140 | METHODS FOR AUTOMATICALLY DETERMINING WORKFLOW FOR PRINT JOBS - A method automatically determines a workflow for a print job via analysis of PDF documents is disclosed. A job synopsis comprising hashed information of a historical print job's document content along with a PDF document-level and object-level metadata and information about workflow nodes and parameters can be stored in a database. The job synopsis of a new incoming print job can then be compared to the historical print job synopses database. If the new print job matches the historical print job within a certain predefined similarity limit, then workflow and parameter information associated with the historical job can be utilized to augment an initial workflow for the incoming print job. | 08-05-2010 |
20100223234 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING S/MIME-BASED DOCUMENT DISTRIBUTION VIA ELECTRONIC MAIL MECHANISMS - A content or document management system includes a content or document repository; a dedicated e-mail account; and a mail agent associated with the dedicated e-mail account. The mail agent processes a received e-mail message to determine a sender's identity; authenticates the identity of the sender and an authorization of the sender with respect to the content or document repository; parses, when a sender is authenticated and authorized, document request information from the e-mail message; and either stores a document to or retrieves a document from the content or document repository. The mail agent may authenticate the identity of the sender using a digital signature, or may authenticate the identity of the sender using an e-mail address in a FROM header field of the received e-mail message header. The mail agent may decrypt encrypted messages from the sender, and may sign and encrypt responses to the sender. | 09-02-2010 |
