Abstract

Embodiments relate to facilitating construction of concepts from a task specification. A method includes receiving, from a user via a user interface, a task specification in natural language form. The method also includes parsing the task specification into a plurality of components, and searching a database for an existing concept having a pattern that approximates at least a portion of the plurality of components. The concept includes semantic meanings that are representable by textual patterns. The method further includes identifying any components of the plurality of components that are not included in the existing concept, and building a new concept that combines the existing concept and the components of the plurality of components that are not included in the existing concept.
