Abstract

A method of transforming and canonicalizing semantically structured data includes obtaining data from a network of computers, applying text patterns to the obtained data and placing the data in a first data file, providing a second data file containing the obtained data in a uniform format, and generating interface specific sentences from the data in the second data file.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS[received by the International Bureau on 14 May 2002 (14.05.2002); original claims 1, 14, 20, 24 and 30 amended; remaining claims unchanged (6 pages)]
1. A method of transforming and canonicalizing semantically structured data, the method comprising: obtaining data from a network of computers; applying text patterns to the obtained data and placing the data in a first data file in a uniform and searchable format; providing a second data file containing the obtained data in a uniform format; and generating interface specific sentences from the data in the second data file.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step of providing a second data file comprises applying a lexical entry transformation table to transform the obtained data into a common semantic form.
3. The method of claim 2, wherein the step of providing a second data file comprises applying attribute phrase grammars to the obtained data.
4. The method of claim 2, wherein the step of providing a second data file comprises applying term arrangement rules.
5. The method of claim 2, wherein the step of providing a second data file comprises applying a second lexical entry transformation table to transform data to a normalized and tagged format.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing the second data file in a uniform database.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the uniform format comprises a normalized and tagged format.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step of generating interface specific sentences comprises applying attribute phrase grammars to the data in the second data file to create a parsed form of the data.
9. The method of claim 8, wherein the step of generating interface specific sentences comprises applying lexical entry transformation tables to the parsed form of the data to create a term substituted form of the data.
10. The method of claim 9, wherein the step of generating interface specific sentences comprises applying term rearrangement rules to the term substituted form of the data according to a specific interface to create a rearranged form of the data.
11. The method of claim 10, wherein the step of generating interface specific sentences comprises applying phrase generation grammars to the rearranged form of the data to create interface specific sentences.
12. The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing voice output corresponding to the interface specific sentences.
13. The method of claim 12, further comprising communicating the voice output to a telephone.
14. A system of transforming and canonicalizing semantically structured data, the system comprising: means for obtaining data from a network of computers; means for applying text patterns to the obtained data and placing the data in a first data file in a uniform and searchable format; means for providing a second data file containing the obtained data in a uniform format; and means for generating interface specific sentences from the data in the second data file.
15. The system of claim 14, further comprising means for storing the second data file in a uniform database.
16. The system of claim 14, further comprising means for providing voice output corresponding to the interface specific sentences.
17. The system of claim 16, further comprising means for communicating the voice output to a telephone.
18. The system of claim 14, wherein the means for providing a second data file comprises means for applying a lexical entry transformation table to transform the obtained data into a common semantic form.
19. The system of claim 14, wherein the means for generating interface specific sentences comprises means for applying various generation grammars to create interface specific sentences.
20. A method of taking data from one format to any of a variety of interface dependent formats, the method comprising: obtaining data from a network of computers; creating a first data file with the obtained data in a first format, the obtained data converted to a uniform and searchable format; and generating phrases from the converted obtained data, the generated phrases being in a second format associated with an interface.
21. The method of claim 20, further comprising communicating voice output corresponding to the generated phrases.
22. The method of claim 20, further comprising storing the first data file and the generated phrases in a database.
23. The method of claim 20, wherein the step of obtaining data from a network of computers comprises obtaining data from the Internet.
24. A system of taking data from one format to any of a variety of interface dependent formats, the system comprising: means for obtaining data from a network of computers; means for creating a first data file with the obtained data in a first format, the obtained data converted to a uniform and searchable format; and means for generating phrases from the converted obtained data, the generated phrases being in a second format associated with an interface .
25. The system of claim 24, further comprising means for communicating the generated phrases by voice to a remote communication device.
26. The system of claim 25, wherein the remote communication device is a telephone.
27. The system of claim 24, wherein the means for generating phrases from the obtained data comprises means for generating wireless application protocol (WAP) phrases.
28. The system of claim 27, further comprising means for communicating WAP phrases to a WAP communication device.
29. The system of claim 24, further comprising means for organizing a plurality of data files containing obtained data from the obtaining means.
30. A computer program product comprising computer readable program code for taking data from one format to any of a variety of interface dependent formats, the program code in the computer program product comprising: first computer readable program code for obtaining data from a network of computers; second computer readable program code for creating a first data file with the obtained data in a first format, the obtained data converted to a uniform and searchable format; and third computer readable program code for generating phrases from the converted obtained data, the generated phrases being in a second format associated with an interface.
31. The program code of claim 30, further comprising fourth computer readable program code for providing voice output corresponding to the generated phrases.
32. The program code of claim 31 , further comprising fifth computer readable program code for communicating the voice output to a telephone.
33. The program code of claim 30, further comprising sixth computer readable program code for organizing a plurality of data files containing obtained data in the first format.
34. The program code of claim 30, wherein the first format comprises a normalized and tagged format.
35. The program code of claim 30, wherein the generated phrases are in a web related format.
