Abstract
Aspects of the invention include systems and methods for the propagation of annotation metadata to overlapping annotations of a synonymous type. A non-limiting example computer-implemented method includes performing a comparison of a set of annotations to detect a subset of annotations that are candidates of being synonymous based on a first analysis. Whether a first annotation of the subset of annotations is synonymous with a second annotation of the subset of annotations is determined based on a second analysis. Distinct annotation metadata of the first annotation are cross-propogated with annotation metadata of the second annotation based on the second analysis.
