Abstract: A method performed by a computing device includes obtaining a set of image segment identigens for image segments of an image to produce sets of image segment identigens. A set of image segment identigens is a set of possible interpretations of a first image segment of the image segments. The method further includes identifying a subset of valid image segment identigens of each set of image segment identigens by applying identigen rules to the sets of image segment identigens to produce subsets of valid image segment identigens. Each valid image segment identigen of a subset of valid image segment identigens represents a most likely interpretation of a corresponding image segment. The method further includes generating an image entigen group utilizing the subsets of valid image segment identigens, where the image entigen group represents a most likely interpretation of the image.

Abstract: Methods and systems of assigning an appraiser to perform a task are provided. A request may be evaluated to identify elements corresponding to the request. The elements may be evaluated to determine the task having a task a task parameter, such as conducting an appraisal. The task may comprise accepting an appraisal order, contacting a property owner, setting up a meeting, identifying comparable properties, confirming an appraisal time, submitting the appraisal report, or submitting a satisfaction survey.

When the initial entigen group does not provide a reliable response to the query, the method further includes determining a desired entigen to add to the initial entigen group to produce an updated entigen group that leads to the reliable response to the query and creating the desired entigen based on obtained targeted data. The method further includes adding the desired entigen to the initial entigen group to produce the updated entigen group and determining whether the updated entigen group provides the reliable response to the query. When the updated entigen group provides the reliable response to the query, the method further includes outputting the reliable response.

Abstract: A method includes obtaining an initial answer entigen group from a knowledge database based on a query entigen group of a query. The method further includes determining that a reliable and definitive answer for the query is not obtainable from the initial answer entigen group. When an incomplete answer entigen is a cause for the inability to obtain the reliable and definitive answer, the method further includes determining a missing element, obtaining data regarding the missing element, updating the incomplete answer entigen with the data to produce an updated answer entigen, and updating the initial answer entigen group with the updated answer entigen to produce an updated answer entigen group. When the updated answer entigen group produces the reliable and definitive answer, the method further includes outputting the reliable and definitive answer.

Abstract: A method includes selecting an entigen group from a knowledge database. The entigen group is a most likely meaning of a phrase of a string of words. An entigen of the entigen group corresponds to a selected identigen from a set of identigens regarding a word of the string of words. The set of identigens represent different meanings of the word. The method further includes identifying other entigen groups of alternate phrases having the most likely meaning from the knowledge database. The alternate phrases are different permutations of the string of words. The method further includes determining a dominant digital representation of a human reaction of the other entigen groups and generating a digital representation of a human reaction for the entigen group based on the dominant digital representation of a human reaction.
