Has anyone heard of a replacement for Concept Expansion?

Question

I have learned about the IBM Watson and Bluemix services over the past few months. I used to watch the Concept Expansion service, but when I returned to the page describing this service, I found a message from IBM that this service was recalled: Has anyone seen or heard of an alternative or replacement offered or offered by IBM?

Answer 1

The closest equivalent is Conceptual Concepts . It works by making graphs of concepts in the corpus, with each concept having a path inside this graph. Many Concept Insights APIs are designed to search for text documents, but you can use related_concepts endpoints to extend the concept. For example, the following query concepts related to IBM Watson and Business:

curl -u "{username}":"{ci-password}" -G -d "concepts=[\"/graphs/wikipedia/en-latest/concepts/IBM_Watson\",\"/graphs/wikipedia/en-latest/concepts/Business\"]&level=1&limit=2" "https://gateway.watsonplatform.net/concept-insights/api/v2/graphs/wikipedia/en-latest/related_concepts" 

returns this:

 { "concepts": [ { "score":0.7795701, "concept": { "id":"/graphs/wikipedia/en-20120601/concepts/Business_intelligence", "label":"Business intelligence" } }, { "score":0.7564283, "concept": { "id":"/graphs/wikipedia/en-20120601/concepts/Data_model", "label":"Data model" } } ] } 

which goes to Business Intelligence and Data Model.

Answer 2

Insights concept removed. Now I am using AlchemyLanguage and it works for my needs.
