Abstract

Mechanisms are provided for processing sources of content in a corpus of information associated with a domain. The mechanisms ingest a plurality of sources of content in the corpus of information associated with the domain and determine at least one temporal category for the domain based on identification of frequently occurring references to at least one of temporal terms or time spans specified in the plurality of sources of content in the corpus of information associated with the domain. The mechanisms store the at least one temporal category for the domain in association with the domain and process queries applied to the plurality of sources of content in the corpus of information associated with the domain based on the stored at least one temporal category for the domain.
