Patent ID: 8676826

Claim:
A method comprising: parsing, by a computer, a corpus based on a set of grammar rules; identifying, by said computer and following said parsing of said corpus, a statement in said corpus that was not parsed, a section of said statement that did not match any of said grammar rules in said set of grammar rules such that said statement could not be parsed, and a subset of said set of grammar rules at fault; developing, by said computer, groups of new grammar rules such that each group comprises at least one new grammar rule, such that each group is developed for parsing said statement having said section, and such that each new grammar rule is a modification of a grammar rule in said subset; selecting, by said computer, a single group of said groups of new grammar rules for possible incorporation into said set of grammar rules to produce a new set of grammar rules; and, performing, by said computer, additional processes in order to determine whether to incorporate said single group into said new set.
