Patent number: 11520988Abstract: The current invention concerns a computer-implemented method, a computer system, and a computer program product for the semantic classification of an entity in a building information model (BIM). The BIM comprises multiple target entities. Update data is obtained. For each target entity, geometric information about the target entity is obtained from the BIM. For each target entity, an initial probability distribution of semantic classification is determined based on the obtained geometric information about the target entity. Relative geometric information about the target entities is obtained from the BIM. For each target entity, an updated probability distribution of semantic classification is determined based on the obtained relative geometric information, the initial probability distributions of all target entities, and the update data. For each target entity, a semantic classification is selected based on the updated probability distribution of the target entity.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2018Date of Patent: December 6, 2022Assignee: BRICSYS NVInventor: Tjerk Gauderis

Patent number: 11488256Abstract: Millions of bodily injury insurance claims are filed yearly to help people who've suffered accidents from work, slip-and-falls, and auto collisions. In processing these claims, insurance companies, TPAs, and law firms routinely hire experts, such as physicians, to conduct independent medical evaluations (IMEs) to assist claims adjusters and attorneys in analyzing the eligibility of claimants for indemnity and medical benefit payments. IMEs typically cost thousands of dollars each. Yet, many are ordered too early, wasting money that could otherwise be used to reduce insurance premiums. To reduce this waste, the inventors devised, among other things, one or more exemplary systems which not only predict the outcomes of IMEs based on claimant medical records and/or or activity data before ordering them, but also presents selected claims and predictions within a graphical user interface that facilitates ordering the IMEs from a list of available physicians.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2021Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: Infiniteintel, Inc.Inventors: Raquel Emilia Schaps, Steven Cade Adams
