  • Patent number: 10402496
    Abstract: An electronic documents verification system (and method) detects related contracts, and analyzes contents in the related contracts including a primary contract and associated amendments from raw input data. One embodiment of a disclosed configuration includes a system (and method) for identifying clauses used in the related contracts. The system (and method) extracts features including key references or descriptions within each contract. Additionally, the system (and method) groups the related contracts, and establishes linkages of the related contracts based on the extracted features. Furthermore, the system (and method) analyzes contents in the related contracts based on advanced policy group including a plurality of policy groups.

  • Patent number: 10185712
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system and a method for identifying, from contractual documents, (i) standard exact clauses matching clause examples and (ii) non-standard clauses semantically related to but not matching the clause examples. A standard feature data set comprising standard exact clauses matching clause examples is obtained. In addition, a mirror feature data set comprising semantically related clauses of the clause examples is obtained using semantic language analysis, where the mirror feature data set encompasses the standard feature data set. Non-standard clauses are obtained by extracting a difference between the mirror feature data set and the standard exact feature data set.

  • Patent number: 9268768
    Abstract: A non-standard and standard clause detection system imports raw input data or contractual documents, and extracts non-standard and standard clauses that are semantically linked. One embodiment of a disclosed configuration is a system and a method for identifying non-standard and standard clauses in contractual documents. The system and the method comprise of generating a primary policy and a secondary policy, obtaining a first feature data set by applying the primary policy to a semantic language evaluator, and obtaining a second feature data set by applying the secondary policy to the semantic language evaluator. The first feature data set obtained is the aggregation of the standard clauses used in the document. Furthermore, the second feature data set encompasses the first feature data set, thus the difference between the first feature data set and the second feature data set is the aggregation of the non-standard clauses.

  • Publication number: 20150178867
    Abstract: A linked addendum detection system identifies and links related contractual documents including a master agreement (MA) and associated amendments from a large volume of data. The system extracts primary features including key references or descriptions within each contractual document. In addition, the system also includes grouping to detect the related contractual documents. Moreover, the system sorts the MA and the associated amendments according to the modification time (MTIME), and further sequentially establishes linkages from one contractual document to the next document in order. Furthermore, the system prepares and provides output result for display to an end user.
