Inferred Facts Discovered through Knowledge Graph Derived Contextual Overlays

摘要

An approach is provided in which a knowledge manager identifies a first cohort type and a second cohort type corresponding to an entity included in a question. The knowledge manager determines inferred states to the question by comparing a first set of cohort attributes corresponding to a first cohort type against entity attributes corresponding to the question. In turn, the knowledge manager generates possible answers by comparing the inferred states against a second set of cohort attributes corresponding to a second cohort type.

1. A method implemented by an information handling system that includes a memory and a processor, the method comprising:
identifying a plurality of cohort types corresponding to an entity included in a question, wherein the plurality of cohort types include a first cohort type and a second cohort type; determining one or more inferred states by comparing a first set of cohort attributes corresponding to the first cohort type against one or more entity attributes corresponding to the entity; and generating one or more possible answers to the question based upon comparing the one or more inferred states against a second set of cohort attributes corresponding to the second cohort type.
