Application: Schema augmentation system for exploratory research (Patent ID: US20240104405A1)

The patent filed by Microsoft describes a schema augmentation system that leverages machine learning to enhance exploratory research tasks by schematizing content and determining semantic proximities between information units. Users interacting with heterogenous content receive machine-augmented support to identify potentially relevant information units, accelerating their research tasks. The system processes user behavior data, determines information units associated with research tasks, computes schema intents, and generates schematization maps based on semantic coherence and user input, optimizing machine training.

The system involves obtaining user behavior data, processing it to determine information units, utilizing a machine learning model to derive semantic meaning, computing schema intents, and generating schematization maps based on proximity between information units. User evaluation inputs are obtained to update the schematization map, which is displayed to users to assist in their exploratory research tasks. The method also includes populating relationship links, performing semantic schema associations, and training the schematization map based on user feedback, ultimately improving the efficiency and effectiveness of exploratory research tasks through intelligent machine augmentation.
