  • Patent number: 11928606
    Abstract: A method of classifying an electronic document from an electronic media source includes generating statistical data from one or more training documents and creating a plurality of classification rules, including creating at least one topic model-based classification rule using the statistical data and creating at least one query-based classification rule using one or more user defined categories and the statistical data. The method further includes classifying the electronic document using the at least one topic model-based classification rule. Example systems for classifying an electronic document from an electronic media source are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11645319
    Abstract: A computer system identifies and prioritizes issues in electronic documents from electronic social media sources and/or from traditional media sources. The computer system includes a communication network linked to one or more of the sources and a computer server in communication with the communication network. The computer server is configured to receive electronic documents from the sources via the communication network. The computer server has memory and a processor, the memory including processor executable instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor. The instructions comprise data collection instructions, topic modeling instructions including instructions for weighing and instructions for indicating a distribution for identified issues within each of the retrieved documents, issue assignment instructions, instructions for determining, and instructions for ranking.
