Abstract
Mechanisms are provided for processing logical relationships in natural language content. A logical parse of a first parse of the natural language content is generated by identifying latent logical terms within the first parse indicative of logical relationships between elements of the natural language content. The logical parse comprises nodes and edges linking nodes. At least one knowledge value is associated with each node in the logical parse. The at least one knowledge value associated with at least a subset of the nodes in the logical parse is propagated to one or more other nodes in the logical parse based on propagation rules. The propagating of the at least one knowledge value generates transaction records in a transaction knowledgebase data structure. A reasoning operation is executed based on the transaction knowledgebase data structure.
