An automated system and method of converting legacy decision logic to a target format. The legacy files are received by the decision logic translation system, which outputs the business rule content in a standard rule structure, according to the selected target format. The process involves decision logic-based rule extraction. In general, methods or processes for extracting business rules have been difficult to reproduce and do not present clearly the extracted rules regarding the concepts of business rules, their composition and categorization. These drawbacks lead to incomplete extraction of rules and massive manual effort to achieve a complete extraction and verification. In contrast, the proposed system overcomes these drawbacks, and outputs files that can be easily used to migrate the business rules to a new platform.

A domain-specific question answering system receives an end-user's question, identifies relevant information from domain-specific documents, composes a natural-language based response including the relevant information to be provided to the end-user. A knowledge base includes a domain-specific ontology and is built from data structures configured to preserve the hierarchy of the informational elements within the domain-specific documents. The question received from the end-user is analyzed to extract the features and the key phrases which are used to identify the relevant data structures. A pre-trained model that is further trained on domain-specific data is used to identify the sentences that include information responsive to the question. A response to the end-user's question is composed from the sentences. The question answering system also enables validation of the answers provided to the users' questions.
