Patent number: 12072861Abstract: Described herein is a regulatory parser that downloads and efficiently processes regulatory documents. The regulatory documents may be from different sources and may have different formats. The regulatory parser parses all of the text in the regulatory documents and converts into a predetermined, single format for downstream applications. The text is organized and stored in a structured tree, organized into one or more hierarchies with nodes storing segments of text from a regulatory document. In some embodiments, each node in the regulatory tree may represent a segment of text. Partitioning the text of a regulatory document into segments of text may make the storage and querying of the regulatory documents more manageable. The organization and structure of the structured tree may reduce the times and resources needed for accessing and searching for a regulatory citation. The structured tree may allow a user to manipulate a regulatory document or text.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2022Date of Patent: August 27, 2024Assignee: PwC Product Sales LLCInventors: Todd Morrill, Eric Roma, Nicolas Kuzak, Neelam Sharma, Andrew Runge, Jayvardhan Rathi, Waqar Sarguroh, Wenting Zhao

Patent number: 11929066Abstract: Described are systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program product embodiments for automatically processing intent-based spoken language for SLU. The disclosed solution uses a scale-free network structured conversational knowledge graph that stores nodes representative of actions, objects, and intent names and edges representative of relationships between the nodes. For all phrases (including a sentence) from the same intent, the system calculates a mean feature vector using a Universal Sentence Embedding (USE) model as a feature element. The system also employs a multi-step intent detection strategy. A graph query technique may be used to match all potential intent nodes from the trained knowledge graph. The system may compute a covariance matrix between the feature element of an input phrase and feature elements of all potential intents. The major component of the covariance matrix along with the maximum covariance may be used to determine the final intent.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2020Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: PwC Product Sales LLCInventors: Yizhuo Zhang, Walter Quesada, Thomas J.
