Abstract

The invention provides a method for processing a query directed to a database comprising: obtaining the query from a user; disambiguating the query using a knowledge base to obtain a first set of interpretations of the query, each of the interpretations comprising a collection of related word meanings; ranking the first set of interpretations based on a likelihood of intended meaning of the query; identifying a first set of results from the database based on the best interpretation; re-disambiguating the query by excluding word meanings associated with the best interpretation to obtain a second set of interpretations;
ranking the second set of interpretations based on a likelihood of intended meaning; and, identifying a second set of results from the database based on the next best interpretation. The invention also provides a system for executing the method.

Claims (14)

1. A method of processing a query directed to a database, said method comprising the steps of:
obtaining said query from a user;
disambiguating said query using a knowledge base to obtain a set of interpretations for words in said query;
if said set comprises more than one identifiable interpretation selecting one interpretation from said set as a best interpretation;
utilizing said best interpretation of said query to identify relevant results from said database related to said best interpretation;
re-disambiguating remaining interpretations of said set by excluding results associated with said best interpretation;
selecting a next best interpretation from said remaining interpretations; and utilizing said next best interpretation of said query to identify relevant results from said database related to said next best interpretation.
2. The method of processing a query directed to a database as claimed in claim 1, wherein said step of disambiguating said query comprises utilizing an algorithm selected from: an example disambiguation algorithm, an n-word disambiguation algorithm, a priors disambiguation algorithm; a dependencies algorithm and a classifying algorithm.
3. The method of processing a query directed to a database as claimed in claim 2, further comprising:
obtaining a selected identifiable sense from said user identifying a selected word sense from said set of identifiable senses; and updating said knowledge base with data model regarding said query and said selected identifiable sense.
4. The method of processing a query directed to a database as claimed in claim 3, wherein said data model comprises data model for said user.
5. The method of processing a query directed to a database as claimed in claim 4, wherein said data model further comprises data for a session associated with said user and said query.
6. The method of processing a query directed to a database as claimed in claim 5, wherein said data model further comprises data model for all queries to said database.
7. A method of processing a query directed to a database, said method comprising the steps of:
obtaining said query from a user;
disambiguating said query using a knowledge base to obtain a set of identifiable interpretations associated with words in said query;

if said set comprises more than one identifiable interpretation:
selecting one sense from said set as a best interpretation;
utilizing said best interpretation of said query to identify relevant results from said database related to said best interpretation;
expanding said best interpretation to obtain related word senses for said best interpretation to produce an expanded best interpretation of said query;
compare said expanded best interpretation of said query to an index associated with said database;
selectively processing remaining interpretations of said set by:
re-disambiguating said remaining interpretations of said set by excluding results associated with said best interpretation;
selecting a next best interpretation from said remaining senses;
utilizing said next best interpretation of said query to identify relevant results from said database related to said next best interpretation; and identifying a term associated with said next best interpretation which distinguishes said next best sense from said best interpretation;
obtaining results from said database utilizing said expanded best interpretation of said query;
generating a question to said user utilizing said term to test whether said next best interpretation was the interpretation meant by said user;
obtaining from said user a response to said question to identify an intended interpretation from said; and utilizing said response to further re-disambiguate said set of interpretations.
8. The method of processing a query directed to a database as claimed in claim 7, wherein said step of disambiguating said query comprises utilizing an algorithm selected from: an example disambiguation algorithm, an n-word disambiguation algorithm, a priors disambiguation algorithm, a classifier algorithm and a dependencies algorithm.
9. A method of processing a query directed to a database, said method comprising the steps of:
obtaining said query from a user;
disambiguating said query using a knowledge base to obtain a set of identifiable senses associated with words in said query;
if said set comprises more than one identifiable sense, selecting one sense from said set as a best sense;
selectively processing remaining senses of said set by:
re-disambiguating said remaining senses of said set by excluding results associated with said best sense; and selecting at least a next best sense from said remaining senses to form a set of re-disambiguated remaining senses;
for said best sense and each member of said set of re-disambiguated remaining senses:
expanding and paraphrasing its associated sense to obtain semantically related senses to produce an expanded sense of for its query;
comparing its expanded sense to an index associated with said database; and obtaining results from said database utilizing its expanded sense;
obtaining from said user an indication noting which result from all results returned from said database is an intended sense for said query; and utilizing said indication to further re-disambiguate said set of senses.
10. A method of revising a knowledge base associated with a query directed to a database, said method comprising the steps of:
disambiguating said query using said knowledge base to obtain a set of identifiable senses associated with words in said query;
identifying an intended sense from said set; and updating said knowledge base with data regarding said query and said selected identifiable sense to contain preferred identifiable senses which are used to disambiguate subsequent queries.
11. The method of processing a query directed to a database as claimed in claim 10, wherein said step of disambiguating said query comprises utilizing an algorithm selected from: an example disambiguation algorithm, an n-word disambiguation algorithm, and a priors disambiguation algorithm; and said updating said knowledge base involves updating a local knowledge base associated with said algorithm.
12. The method of processing a query directed to a database as claimed in claim 11, wherein said data comprises data for a user.
13. The method of processing a query directed to a database as claimed in claim 12, wherein said data further comprises data for a session associated with said user and said query.
14. The method of processing a query directed to a database as claimed in claim 13, wherein said data further comprises data for a common session of all users accessing said database.
