Abstract
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for deep mining of data sources. A deep miner provides extended reach into available structured databases and/or unstructured data sources. Direct evaluation of columns for relevance to a client query provides a wider array of columns having potential relevance, compared to conventional tools relying on table evaluation. Direct column evaluation is extended to unstructured data sources. A broad interface extends the reach of search seamlessly across a wide range of structured and unstructured data sources. Disclosed techniques provide superior results with reduced computing resource utilization. Limitations of human expertise are overcome. Further efficiencies are achieved through caching, ranking of columns or results, search refinement, and customized responses.
