  • Patent number: 12001486
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for identifying reference data values in a source data set. The method may include inputting a block of attribute values to a predefined machine learning model. The method may also include receiving an indication of a presentation layout of the block of the attribute values and an associated reference data extraction method. The method may also include determining a reading direction of the block of values. The method may also include identifying one or more inspection areas in the reading direction of the block of values. The method may also include determining sets of the one or more inspection areas that share a common presentation feature. The method may also include identifying tokens in an inspection area. The method may also include determining if the inspection area includes reference data values. The method may also include outputting the reference data values.

  • Patent number: 11334757
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for processing suspect duplicate records in a master data management system. A master data management module identifies two or more suspect duplicate records in the master data management system based on scores. A matching engine classifies the two or more suspect duplicate records, by comparing the scores against threshold values, into one of: a match, a non-match, and a possible match. The master data management module re-classifies the suspect duplicate records and adjusting the threshold values of the matching engine for classification of future records, in response to receiving, by a data stewardship client, a user input indicating an incorrect classification of the suspect duplicate records.
