One has to wonder if Google’s Adsense couldn’t use this technology from Crystal Semantics.
From the release:
The technology enables the correct senses of words to be determined — for example, determining the sense of the word ‘depression’ in relation to economics as opposed to ‘depression’ in the context of mental health. The patent outlines a structure where a database containing a ‘plurality of terms’ is used to define the placements of information within logical categories. The ‘plurality of terms’ along with the taxonomy of all the associated words are used to define and uniquely classify the particular subject. In everyday language, the words and senses of a dictionary are being associated with the knowledge categories of an encyclopedia.
