  • Patent number: 12229504
    Abstract: A computer system performs live natural language processing (NLP) on data sources that are complex, remotely stored, and/or large, while satisfying restrictive time constraints. The computer system divides the NLP process into a batch NLP process and a live NLP process. The batch NLP process operates asynchronously over the relevant data set, which may be complex, remotely stored, and/or large, to summarize information into a summarized NLP data model. When the live NLP process is initiated, live NLP process receives as input the relevant information from the summarized NLP data model, possibly along with other data. The prior generation of the summarized NLP data model by the batch NLP process enables the live NLP process to perform NLP within time constraints that could not have been satisfied if the batch NLP process had not pre-processed the data set to produce the summarized NLP data model.

  • Publication number: 20170300645
    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for tracking quality measures in abstracted documents. Embodiments include, determining, based on the abstracted content, a quality measure category, obtaining a quality measure definition corresponding to a quality measure included in the determined quality measure category, determining, based on keywords corresponding to the criterion, whether a portion of the abstracted content satisfies a criterion, recording, in association with the criterion, a reference to the portion of the abstracted content that satisfies the criterion; and selectively generating, a report including the query corresponding to the criterion, a query response, and the portion of the abstracted content satisfying the criterion.

  • Publication number: 20150088504
    Abstract: A computer-assisted method of abstracting and coding data includes receiving one or more documents is disclosed. The methods and systems extract information from a record based on extraction rules that correspond to an identified record type, determine codes corresponding to the information extracted from the record, present the correspondence between the extracted information and the codes, receive from the user-input device a validation of the correspondence between the extracted information and one of the codes, and output a report including the validated information and the validated code.
