SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONCEPT DISCOVERY WITH ONLINE INFORMATION ENVIRONMENTS

摘要

Provided are systems and methods for referencing intent-based taxonomies to enable more natural approaches for users to specify problems to be solved, questions to be answered, and other content requests that can be delivered within online communities. Further embodiments include an active recruitment approach to ensure answers and interactions occur on a given case and/or question. The recruitment approach can be integrated with known or existing online communities to facilitate information exchange and generation. The recruitment approach can be configured to tap resources within an online community but also reach outside of the community to additional resources. Further, intent-based models of cases can be used across even language barriers to recruit across the largest knowledge base possible. Internationally accepted concepts can be used in conjunction with case definition/modeling and resulting case models can be translated through various languages. Such recruitment approaches can target individuals outside a community and across languages.
