Abstract
Mechanisms are provided to implement a natural language request processing engine (NLRPE). The NRLPE performs natural language processing on a portion of unstructured text in an electronic data structure to generate textual characteristics of the portion of unstructured text. The NRLPE annotates at least one phrase in the portion of unstructured text at least by linking the at least one phrase to one or more concepts specified in at least one ontological data structure based on the textual characteristics of the portion of unstructured text. The NRLPE generates a model of the portion of unstructured text based on the one or more concepts linked to the at least one phrase. The NRLPE processes a request for information specifying a concept of interest based on the model of the portion of unstructured text by retrieving the at least one phrase or the at least one merged phrase as a response.
