Abstract
A method and apparatus for identifying a semantic structure from text includes processing the input text to identify self-describing fragments of the input text based on a hierarchical schema defining a domain with at least one top-level node and child nodes. Each identified self-describing fragment includes hierarchical context of a portion of the input text. A semantic structure is provided based on the identified self-describing fragments.
