Concept Analysis Operations Utilizing Accelerators

Mechanisms, in a system comprising a host system and at least one accelerator device, for performing a concept analysis operation are provided. The host system extracts a set of one or more concepts from an information source and provides the set of one or more concepts to the accelerator device. The host system also provides at least one matrix representation data structure representing a graph of concepts and relationships between concepts in a corpus. The accelerator device executes the concept analysis operation internal to the accelerator device to generate an output vector identifying concepts in the corpus, identified in the at least one matrix representation data structure, related to the set of one or more concepts extracted from the information source. The accelerator device outputs the output vector to the host system which utilizes the output vector to respond to a request submitted to the host system associated with the information source.
