Abstract

Humans regularly exploit analogical reasoning to generate potentially novel and useful inferences. We outline the Dr Inventor model that identifies analogies between research publications, describing recent work to evaluate the inferences that are generated by the system. Its inferences, in the form of subjectverb-object triples, can involve arbitrary combinations of source and target information. We evaluate three approaches to assess the quality of inferences. Firstly, we explore an n-gram based approach (derived from the Dr Inventor corpus). Secondly, we use ConceptNet as a basis for evaluating inferences. Finally, we explore the use of Watson Concept Insights (WCI) to support our inference evaluation process. Dealing with novel inferences arising from an ever growing corpus is a central concern throughout.
