By formulizing a specific company's internal knowledge and terminology, the ontology programming accounts for linguistic meaning to surface relevant and important content for analysis. The ontology is built on the premise that meaningful terms are detected in the corpus and then classified according to specific semantic concepts, or entities. Once the main terms are defined, direct relations or linkages can be formed between these terms and their associated entities. Then, the relations are grouped into themes, which are groups or abstracts that contain synonymous relations. The disclosed ontology programming adapts to the language used in a specific domain, including linguistic patterns and properties, such as word order, relationships between terms, and syntactical variations. The ontology programming automatically trains itself to understand the domain or environment of the communication data by processing and analyzing a defined corpus of communication data.
