  • Patent number: 10713436
    Abstract: A method for suggesting revisions to a document-under-analysis from a seed database, the seed database including a plurality of original texts each respectively associated with one of a plurality of final texts, the method for suggesting revisions including selecting a statement-under-analysis (“SUA”), selecting a first original text of the plurality of original texts, determining a first edit-type classification of the first original text with respect to its associated final text, generating a first similarity score for the first original text based on the first edit-type classification, the first similarity score representing a degree of similarity between the SUA and the first original text, selecting a second original text of the plurality of original texts, determining a second edit-type classification of the second original text with respect to its associated final text, generating a second similarity score for the second original text based on the second edit-type classification, the second similarity

  • Publication number: 20200134004
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for customization and insertion of a clause into an electronic document under analysis (DUA). The method includes the steps of receiving and electronic DUA, automatically detecting a slot type in the received DUA, assigning a DUA slot value to the detected slot type, and automatically updating one or more clauses in a clause library using the DUA slot value, wherein the updating includes inserting the DUA slot value into each slot in the one or more clauses having a slot type matching the detected slot type.

  • Publication number: 20200089743
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for suggesting revisions to a document-under-analysis (“DUA”) from a seed database, the seed database including a plurality of original texts each respectively associated with one of a plurality of final texts. The method includes tokenizing the DUA into a plurality of statements-under-analysis (“SUAs”), selecting a first SUA of the plurality of SUAs, generating a first similarity score for each of the plurality of the original texts, the similarity score representing a degree of similarity between the first SUA and each of the original texts, selecting a first candidate original text of the plurality of the original texts, and creating an edited SUA (“ESUA”) by modifying a copy of the first SUA consistent with a first candidate final text associated with the first candidate original text.
