Intelligent targeted reasoning

Abstract

Some embodiments enable intelligent searching data based on structure and content of models defining structure domains of interest. Embodiments are also capable of simultaneously providing context sensitive reasoning across the domains to find other relationships within the data that are not apparent using traditional search. For a respective domain-specific model, a method or system reasons relationships within the respective domain-specific model. Each relationship is between a keyword of a search query inputted by a user and a field of the domain-specific model. The method reasons the relationships by traversing the domain-specific model using domain-specific rules selected by the keyword. The method maps a first field of a first reasoned relationship to a second field of a second reasoned relationship. The first and second fields are in respective first and second domain-specific models. The method executes the search query based on the mapping, which generates search results presented to the user.
