  • Patent number: 11074262
    Abstract: Computer based methods, systems, and computer readable media for classifying documents within a content repository or documents within the document subsets are provided. Documents may be pre-processed to render document sections visible to machine readers. Document subsets may be generated based on user-defined terms. The machine readable documents may be classified within the content repository into one of a group of categories, based-upon the number of times classification terms appear in a specific document section of the document. Documents may be ranked based upon the frequency of classification terms in the specific section. Documents may be associated with specific diseases such as cancer, genes, gene variants, and drugs or synonyms thereof by comparing relevant search terms to specific sections of the documents.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: July 27, 2021
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Cheryl Eifert, Joel C. Dubbels, Jeffrey Bernard Nowicki, Claudia S. Huettner, Jia Xu, Fang Wang, Kirk A. Beaty, Vanessa Michelini, Marta Sanchez-Martin

  • Patent number: 6928487
    Abstract: An apparatus, method, and method for doing business allows two business partners to communicate with each other in an architected manner. A first company monitors for changes to its internal data structure that indicate that communication with a second company may be required. A trigger mechanism monitors the data structure for changes, and invokes a software application when the data structure is changed in a defined manner. The software application extracts the new or changed data from the data structure, formats the data into an XML document, and sends the XML document to the second company via a secure communication mechanism, such as a virtual private network (VPN). The second computer system receives the information from the first computer system, parses the information, and processes the information. The second computer system then generates an appropriate response to the first computer system.
