  • Publication number: 20230274324
    Abstract: Provided is a system and method that can identify whether an item is a dangerous good. The system can determine whether a product belongs in any of a number of different classes of dangerous goods from among a plurality of different regulations based on a machine learning algorithm which performs a text-based classification. In one example, the method may include receiving an identification of an object, retrieving a plurality of descriptive attributes of the object from a data store and converting the plurality of descriptive attributes into an input string, predicting whether the object is a dangerous object via execution of a text-based machine learning algorithm that receives the input string as an input, and outputting information about the prediction of the object for display via a user interface.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20200364725
    Abstract: Provided is a system and method that can assign a product to a regulatory group via a machine learning algorithm. The system can predict whether a product belongs in any of a number of different groups and retrieve regulations for the predicted groups. In one example, the method may include receiving an alphanumeric identifier of an object, predicting that the object is included within one or more regulatory categories via execution of a regulatory-based machine learning algorithm that receives the identifier of the object as an input and classifies the object into the one or more regulatory categories, retrieving regulation information about the one or more predicted regulatory categories for at least one jurisdiction associated with the object, and outputting the retrieved regulation information about the one or more predicted regulations for display via a user interface.
