Abstract

A question library aids in intuitive analysis of stored data. The question library comprises: 1) a plurality of text questions, 2) a numerical representation (e.g., a vector) of each text question, and 3) a corresponding query in a query language. A numerical vector is generated for a question posed to a database. If a matching library question (based upon vector similarity) is not found, the user receives the original answer. If a matching library question based upon vector similarity is found, the user receives the answer to that library question (with potential modifications). Embodiments may determine similarity by calculating Pearson's coefficient, Spearman's rho, or Kendall's tau. Embodiments may parse the first query to identify constituent elements (measures, dimensions, filters). These entities are extracted and compared to elements of the second question matched within the library, to allow modification of the library query to align with the initial query.
