Abstract
A method for enrichment of text which enables mixed data mining includes generating a model for structured data found in tables of a database. In the model, semantically-linked terms are associated with referents, such as field names or cell content of the fields, of the structured data. The referents may be a business object or refer to a business object. A plurality of candidate referring entities in textual data in the database, such as chunks of free text, is identified. For each candidate referring entity, a similarity measure between the candidate referring entity in the textual data and the model is computed to identify referring entities of the candidate referring entities and corresponding business objects/referents to which the referring entities refer. The textual data is enriched with information derived from the business objects.
