Capability annotation of actions based on their textual descriptions
Résumé
Current approaches for semantic management of business processes and services assume and build on semantic models which don't exist in practice. A key and open research problem is how to lift semantic models from existing process and service descriptions. In this paper, we are interested in extracting action capabilities from their textual descriptions. We first introduce a semantic frame-based capability model that features domain-specific functional properties. We present an approach for retrieving top-k capabilities that match best a natural language description of an action. Our approach has been evaluated using publicly available process and service descriptions
