  • Publication number: 20250005683
    Abstract: Systems and methods for assisting a user during a tax interview are disclosed. In some embodiments, the system may utilize historical data and machine learning algorithms to determine an optimal set of questions to the user. The questions may be order based on a desired result of the optimization algorithm. The user may respond to the questions and at each response, a new set of questions may be generated based on a real-time simulation of the potential questions. As the user continues to provide input, an error based on unknown information may reduce to a minimal error below a threshold. At this point, the interview may be complete, and the desired result may be maximized.

  • Publication number: 20240378381
    Abstract: Media, methods, and systems are disclosed for automatically calculating predicted values using deep learning models. One or more input forms having a plurality of input form field values are received. The input form field values are automatically parsed into a set of computer-generated candidate standard field values. The set of candidate standard field values are automatically normalized into a data frame having a set of normalized field values. In response to determining which portions of the data frame to apply to a line calculation neural network, a corresponding line calculation neural network is applied. At least one output form line calculation is performed. A natural language explanation regarding the at least one output form line calculation is generated. Additional user provided inputs are received in response to the natural language explanation, and at least one remaining calculation is carried out based on the one or more additional user provided inputs.

  • Patent number: 11830081
    Abstract: Media, methods, and systems are disclosed for applying a computer-implemented model to a table of computed values to identify one or more anomalies. One or more input forms having a plurality of input form field values is received. The input form field values are automatically parsed into a set of computer-generated candidate standard field values. The set of candidate standard field values are automatically normalized into a corresponding set of normalized field values, based on a computer-automated input normalization model. An automated review model controller is applied to automatically identify a review model to apply to the set of normalized field values, based on certain predetermined target field values. The automatically identified review model is then applied to the set of normalized inputs, and in response to detecting an anomaly, a field value is flagged accordingly.
