Abstract

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a system dynamically processes a document including unstructured text and comprises a computer system including at least one processor. Initially, the system configures a plurality of dictionaries with terms supplied by a user and associated with a desired category. The processor in the system applies a set of rules to the unstructured text of the document to detect patterns indicating a presence of the desired category, wherein the set of rules is re-usable across dictionaries configured for different categories and pertains to arrangements of dictionary terms within sentences. The system produces annotations associated with the desired category for the document based on the detected patterns. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for dynamically processing a document including unstructured text in substantially the same manner as is described above.
