Abstract

Embodiments of systems and methods for automatic combination of text mining services, may comprise an instance generation component and an auto-mapping component. From common text sources, the instance generation component generates instances for taxonomy elements attached to a particular text mining service. These instances are then forwarded to the auto-mapping component, which computes a mapping between different taxonomies. This mapping may be saved to avoid repeated instance generation and mapping processes for similar taxonomies. The computed mapping may in turn be input to a result combiner element, together with extraction results from calling the different text mining services. The result combiner returns the merged result sets to the execution, and finally to the user or API.
