Abstract

Systems and techniques for determining relationships and association significance between entities are disclosed. The systems and techniques automatically identify supply chain relationships between companies based on unstructured text corpora. The system combines Machine Learning models to identify sentences mentioning supply chain between two companies (evidence), and an aggregation layer to take into account the evidence found and assign a confidence score to the relationship between companies.
