A method and system for analyzing a corpus of data artifacts is disclosed. The method comprises obtaining, by a computer, a semantic representation of the data artifacts, where the semantic representation indicates (1) entities identified in the data artifacts, and (2) semantic relationships among the entities as indicated by the data artifacts. The method further comprises clustering the data artifacts into clusters of semantically related data artifacts based on the semantic representation and inferring additional semantic relationships between pairs of the entities. The inferring comprises applying, on a cluster-by-cluster basis, a multi-tiered network of inference engines to a portion of the semantic representation corresponding to the cluster, where the multi-tiered network of inference engines includes a domain-independent inference tier and a domain-specific inference tier.

Systems and methods for semantic inference and reasoning

A method and system for harmonizing and mediating ontologies to search across large data sources is disclosed. The method comprises receiving a query targeting a first ontology. The method further comprises translating the query into one or more translated queries, each translated query targeting a respective ontology different from the first ontology. For each of the queries, issuing the query to a respective database organized according to the respective ontology of the query, and receiving a respective result set for the query, wherein the respective result set corresponds to the respective ontology of the query. The method further comprises translating the respective result set into a translated result set corresponding to the first ontology, aggregating the result sets into an aggregated result set corresponding to the first ontology, and returning the aggregated results set corresponding to the first ontology.
