PROCESSING UNSTRUCTURED INFORMATION

摘要

Apparatus, systems, and methods may operate to examine a quantity of language-based communication to determine a plurality of topics associated with the quantity, and to determine whether a number of the plurality of topics converge to a selected degree. Responsive to determining convergence to the selected degree, ranking selected topics in the plurality of topics according to relevance may occur. Additional apparatus, system, and methods are disclosed.

1. A method comprising:
analyzing a first subset of unstructured information items that are included in a set of unstructured information items, the unstructured information items including language-based communication; determining a first plurality of topics associated with the set of unstructured information items based on the analyzing of the first subset of unstructured information items; analyzing a second subset of unstructured information items that are included in the set of unstructured information items, the second subset being analyzed based on the unstructured information items of the second subset not being included in the first subset; determining a second plurality of topics associated with the set of unstructured information items based on the analyzing of the second subset of unstructured information items; comparing the first plurality of topics with the second plurality of topics; determining that the first plurality of topics converge to a particular degree based on the comparing of the first plurality of topics with the second plurality of topics; generating, in response to determining that the first plurality of topics converge to the particular degree, a topical signature for the set of unstructured information items based on the first plurality of topics; and associating the topical signature with the set of unstructured information items.
