Abstract:
Computer-implemented systems and methods align fragments of a first text with corresponding fragments of a second text, which is a translation of the first text. One preferred embodiment preliminarily divides the first and second texts into fragments; generates a hypothesis about the correspondence between the fragments of the first and second texts; performs a lexico-morphological analysis of the fragments using linguistic descriptions; performs a syntactic analysis of the fragments using linguistic descriptions and generates syntactic structures for the fragments; generates semantic structures for the fragments; and estimates the degree of correspondence between the semantic structures.
Abstract:
Methods are described for performing classification (categorization) of text documents written in various languages. Language-independent semantic structures are constructed before classifying documents. These structures reflect lexical, morphological, syntactic, and semantic properties of documents. The methods suggested are able to perform cross-language text classification which is based on document properties reflecting their meaning. The methods are applicable to genre classification, topic detection, news analysis, authorship analysis, etc.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a multilevel method of bitmapped image analysis that comprises a whole image data representation via its components—objects of different levels of complexity—hierarchically connected therebetween by spatially-parametrical links. The said method comprises preliminarily generating a classifier of the objects that possibly may be present in the image consisting of one or more levels differing in complexity; parsing the image into objects; attaching each object to one of predetermined levels; establishing hierarchical links between objects of different levels; establishing links between objects within the same level; and performing an object feature analysis. The objects feature analysis comprises at least generating and examining a hypothesis about object features and correcting the object's features of the same and other levels in response to the hypothesis examination results. The step of object features analysis may also comprise execution of a recursive RX-cut within the same level.
Abstract:
Methods and system for processing document images in OCR systems, particularly for selecting a proper file name for a recognized document. The method comprises generating at least one document type hypothesis for the document; verifying each document type hypothesis; selecting a best document type hypothesis and saving the document with a proper name based on the best type hypothesis and unique features. The method further includes determining a logical structure of a document and selecting a best document model hypothesis that has the best degree of correspondence with the selected best block hypotheses for the document. On the basis of the best document model hypothesis the text document reflecting the logical structure of the source document in extended computer-editable format is formed and saved with a proper file name.
Abstract:
A method and computer system for analyzing sentences of various languages and constructing a language-independent semantic structure are provided. On the basis of comprehensive knowledge about languages and semantics, exhaustive linguistic descriptions are created, and lexical, morphological, syntactic, and semantic analyses for one or more sentences of a natural or artificial language are performed. A computer system is also provided to implement, analyze and store various linguistic structures and to perform lexical, morphological, syntactic, and semantic analyses. As result, a generalized data structure, such as a semantic structure, is generated and used to describe the meaning of one or more sentences in language-independent form, applicable to automated abstracting, machine translation, control systems, Internet information retrieval, etc.
Abstract:
A method and computer system for translating sentences between languages from an intermediate language-independent semantic representation is provided. On the basis of comprehensive understanding about languages and semantics, exhaustive linguistic descriptions are used to analyze sentences, to build syntactic structures and language independent semantic structures and representations, and to synthesize one or more sentences in a natural or artificial language. A computer system is also provided to analyze and synthesize various linguistic structures and to perform translation of a wide spectrum of various sentence types. As result, a generalized data structure, such as a semantic structure, is generated from a sentence of an input language and can be transformed into a natural sentence expressing its meaning correctly in an output language. The method and computer system can be applied to in automated abstracting, machine translation, natural language processing, control systems, Internet information retrieval, etc.

Abstract:
Various embodiments are provided for enabling audio tagging of image files. The audio messages are obtained by the system, usually by recording an audio message from a user, and then converted into a textual tag, using speech recognition technology. In some implementations semantic analysis of text component of these massages is performed. In some implementations the textual tags are then propagated to other image files associated with the user.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for translating text fragments displayed on a screen from an input language into an output language and displaying the result. Translation may use electronic dictionaries, machine translation, natural language processing, control systems, information searches, (e.g., search engine via an Internet protocol), semantic searches, computer-aided learning, and expert systems. For a word combination, appropriate local or network accessible dictionaries are consulted. The disclosed method provides a translation in grammatical agreement in accordance with grammatical rules of the output language in consideration of the context of the text.
