Dynamically generating a service pipeline comprising filtered application programming interfaces
According to an embodiment of the present invention, a system filters a collection of application programming interfaces based on input data representing information of a document to be processed, and generates a pipeline of filtered application programming interfaces. Each filtered application programming interface is sequentially executed within the pipeline. The document may be processed through the pipeline and visualizations based on the processing of the document may be generated, allowing the pipeline to be refined to produce desired output data selected within the visualizations. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for generating a pipeline of filtered application programming interfaces in substantially the same manner described above.
1. A method of generating and executing a sequence of a plurality of application programming interfaces comprising:
filtering a collection of application programming interfaces based on input data representing information of a document to be processed, wherein filtering the collection of application programming interfaces comprises:
examining input formats of the application programming interfaces to filter the collection of application programming interfaces based on formats of the input data;
generating a pipeline of filtered application programming interfaces, wherein each filtered application programming interface is sequentially executed within the pipeline;
processing the document through the pipeline and generating visualizations based on the processing of the document; and
refining the pipeline to produce desired data selected within the visualizations.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein refining the pipeline comprises:
specifying parameters for an application programming interface and corresponding entities to be detected within the document.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the input data includes descriptive information providing requirements for processing the document, and refining the pipeline comprises:
refining the pipeline to process the document to satisfy the requirements.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the visualizations include annotations.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein refining the pipeline includes:
identifying application programming interfaces from the collection for selection based on the visualizations; and
refining the pipeline based on the selected application programming interfaces.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the desired data includes one or more from a group of entities and relations selected from the visualizations of the processed document.
