Abstract: A system for facilitating text analysis is configurable to (i) receive input text data comprising a set of reference text and at least a first set of text, wherein the set of reference text and the first set of text each comprise structured components; process the input text data utilizing a syntax and verb usage module of a natural language processing (NLP) layer; generate a mapping of structured components of the first set of text to structured components of the set of reference text by processing output of the syntax and verb usage module utilizing a similarity analysis module or a categorization module of the NLP layer; and generate an output depicting one or more aspects of the mapping.

Abstract: An apparatus verifies hosted information associated with a user. The apparatus establishes, by the online host serving as a relying party system (RPS), a secure connection between the RPS and a user mobile-identification-credential device (UMD). The RPS sends a mobile identification credential (MIC) user information request to the UMD, via the secure connection, seeking release of MIC user information (official information). The RPS obtains from authorizing party system (APS) verification of the MIC user information received in response to the MIC user information request. The RPS stores the MIC user information as hosted information pertaining to the user. The RPS designates the hosted information as base truth information representing the user.

Abstract: In an example, a provider system receives from a client device a request for client access. The provider system sends to the client device a request for identification information of the client. The provider system receives client information associated with a mobile identification credential (MIC) which the client device received from an authorizing party system (APS), the client having consented to release the client information to the provider system, and the client information having been verified by the APS. The provider system uses the verified client information associated with the MIC to verify or not verify the identity of the client. The provider system verifies the identity of the client before granting the client the request for client access.
