Abstract: Systems and methods for normalizing entities via name normalization are disclosed. In some implementations, a computer-implemented method of identifying duplicate objects in a plurality of objects is provided. Each object in the plurality of objects is associated with one or more facts, and each of the one or more facts having a value. The method includes: using a computer processor to perform: associating facts extracted from web documents with a plurality of objects; and for each of the plurality of objects, normalizing the value of a name fact, the name fact being among one or more facts associated with the object; processing the plurality of objects in accordance with the normalized value of the name facts of the plurality of objects. In some implementations, normalizing the value of the name fact is optionally carried out by applying a group of normalization rules to the value of the name fact.

Abstract: A system and method for extracting facts from documents. A fact is extracted from a first document. The attribute and value of the fact extracted from the first document are used as a seed attribute-value pair. A second document containing the seed attribute-value pair is analyzed to determine a contextual pattern used in the second document. The contextual pattern is used to extract other attribute-value pairs from the second document. The extracted attributes and values are stored as facts.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatic object reference identification and linking in a browseable fact repository database are provided. In some implementations, a method includes, identifying a set of values from a plurality of facts associated with an entity. The plurality of facts are stored in a fact repository, and a respective fact includes: an attribute and a corresponding value. The method further includes, responsive to a search for a first value included in a first fact in the plurality of facts: identifying a second fact associated with the entity; and causing to be displayed to a user: a link associated with the second fact, and information representing a confidence value associated with the second fact. The link, when selected, invokes a search of the fact repository in accordance with one or more search parameters, which include a value corresponding to an attribute included in the second fact.
