  • Patent number: 11972217
    Abstract: System and method for displaying a user interface of an evaluation system configured to evaluate predicted answers generated by a machine learning system. For example, the method includes receiving textual data and a predicted answer to a question associated with a text object. The text object includes a structured data field of the textual data. The predicted answer includes a confidence level. The confidence level is determined by a machine learning system. In response to determining the confidence level being larger than or equal to a predetermined confidence threshold, the predicted answer and a reference is stored in a storage for retrieval and display. The reference indicates a location of the text object in the textual data. In response to determining the confidence level being smaller than the predetermined confidence threshold, the question and the text object associated with the question is displayed.

  • Patent number: 11966571
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a computer-implemented method comprising aggregating PFAS remediation evaluation data for a plurality of remediation options and for a plurality of predefined criteria; graphically displaying the user modifiable chart comprising the plurality of graphical representations of the aggregated PFAS remediation evaluation data, wherein: each graphical representation depicts data points visually plotted with weights, the plurality of graphical representations for the plurality of predefined criteria are visually ordered according to a rank of the plurality of predefined criteria, and the weights are based on the rank of the plurality of predefined criteria; detecting a first user input modifying the rank of at least one predefined criterion; in accordance with the first user input, automatically updating the weights of the data points; and displaying an updated user modifiable chart comprising the plurality of graphical representations of the aggregated PFAS remediation evaluation data.
