  • Patent number: 12265509
    Abstract: A data file comprising a plurality of rows, each of the rows includes at least a first column and a second column, the first column contains a first-level resource ID that identifies a first-level resource, the second column provides information regarding the first-level resource. For each respective unique first-level resource ID, the processing circuitry identifies a row set for the respective first-level resource ID, performs a sequential deduplication process on the row set, and enqueues remaining rows in a queue for a thread assigned to the respective first-level resource ID. For each row enqueued in the queue for the thread, the thread dequeues the row from the queue for the respective thread, requests creation of a second-level resource that stores a version of the data element contained in the second column of the dequeued row, and requests creation of relationship data for the second-level resource.

  • Patent number: 12254275
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for processing forms to automatically adjudicate religious exemptions. The method includes receiving an input from a user to data fields of forms associated with a religious exemption request, wherein the input is in a first data format and includes location information, religious information, employment information, or demographic information associated with the user. Exemption-relevant features are determined from the input. A data object including the exemption-relevant features is generated. The exemption-relevant features are transformed into corresponding embeddings in a second data format, wherein the embeddings represent semantic relations between the exemption-relevant features. The authenticity of the data object is determined based on the embeddings using a classification model that has been trained using a plurality of embeddings representative of a plurality of exemption-relevant features.

  • Patent number: 12235912
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide model-based domain-aware autocomplete techniques for generating autocomplete suggestions in a complex search domain. Example embodiments are configured to generate, using a domain-aware autocomplete model, a label for an autocomplete suggestion based on a set of keywords within an autocomplete suggestion training dataset associated with a target domain source. Example embodiments are also configured to generate, using a weak-labeling model, an updated label for the autocomplete suggestion by decorrelating the set of keywords from the label. Example embodiments are also configured to generate, using a sentence classification model, a category for the autocomplete suggestion based on the updated label. Example embodiments are also configured to, using the domain-aware autocomplete model, generate a suggestion-category pair (SCP) based on the autocomplete suggestion and the category for the autocomplete suggestion.
