20080255884 | Categorization of Information Using Natural Language Processing and Predefined Templates - A computer implemented method for generating a report that includes latent information, comprising receiving an input data stream that includes latent information, performing one of normalization, validation, and extraction of the input data stream, processing the input data stream to identify latent information within the data stream that is required for generation of a particular report, wherein said processing of the input data stream to identify latent information comprises of identifying a relevant portion of the input data stream, bounding the relevant portion of the input data stream, classifying and normalizing the bounded data, activating a relevant report template based on said identified latent information, populating said template with template-specified data, and processing the template-specified data to generate a report. | 10-16-2008 |
20090070380 | METHOD, SYSTEM, AND APPARATUS FOR ASSEMBLY, TRANSPORT AND DISPLAY OF CLINICAL DATA - The Clinical Data Container (CDC) is a method for packaging, transporting, and viewing medical reports, their associated data elements, images, and data from medical information systems for use by physicians and patients. | 03-12-2009 |
20100293451 | AN APPARATUS, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DEVELOPING TOOLS TO PROCESS NATURAL LANGUAGE TEXT - The disclosed invention includes an apparatus, system and method for developing tools to explore, organize, structure, extract, and mine natural language text. The system contains three sub-systems: a run-time engine, a development environment, and a feedback system. The invention also includes a system and method for improving the quality of information extraction applications consisting of an ensemble of per-user, adaptive, on-line machine-learning classifiers that adapt to document content and judgments of users by continuously incorporating feedback from information extraction results and corrections that users apply to these results. At least one of the machine-learning classifier also provides explanations or justifications for classification decisions in the form of rules; other machine-learning classifiers may provide feedback in the form of supporting instances or patterns. | 11-18-2010 |
20110320189 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FILTERING DICTATED AND NON-DICTATED SECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS - A system and method for filtering documents to determine section boundaries between dictated and non-dictated text. The system and method identifies portions of a text report that correspond to an original dictation and, correspondingly, those portions that are not part of the original dictation. The system and method include comparing tokenized and normalized forms of the original dictation and the final report, determining mismatches between the two forms, and applying machine-learning techniques to identify document headers, footers, page turns, macros, and lists automatically and accurately. | 12-29-2011 |
20120209626 | CATEGORIZATION OF INFORMATION USING NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING AND PREDEFINED TEMPLATES - A computer implemented method for generating a report that includes latent information, comprising receiving an input data stream that includes latent information, performing one of normalization, validation, and extraction of the input data stream, processing the input data stream to identify latent information within the data stream that is required for generation of a particular report, wherein said processing of the input data stream to identify latent information comprises of identifying a relevant portion of the input data stream, bounding the relevant portion of the input data stream, classifying and normalizing the bounded data, activating a relevant report template based on said identified latent information, populating said template with template-specified data, and processing the template-specified data to generate a report. | 08-16-2012 |
20120232923 | CATEGORIZATION OF INFORMATION USING NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING AND PREDEFINED TEMPLATES - A computer implemented method for generating a report that includes latent information, comprising receiving an input data stream that includes latent information, performing one of normalization, validation, and extraction of the input data stream, processing the input data stream to identify latent information within the data stream that is required for generation of a particular report, wherein said processing of the input data stream to identify latent information comprises of identifying a relevant portion of the input data stream, bounding the relevant portion of the input data stream, classifying and normalizing the bounded data, activating a relevant report template based on said identified latent information, populating said template with template-specified data, and processing the template-specified data to generate a report. | 09-13-2012 |
20130006632 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR APPLYING DYNAMIC CONTEXTUAL GRAMMARS AND LANGUAGE MODELS TO IMPROVE AUTOMATIC SPEECH RECOGNITION ACCURACY - The invention involves the loading and unloading of dynamic section grammars and language models in a speech recognition system. The values of the sections of the structured document are either determined in advance from a collection of documents of the same domain, document type, and speaker; or collected incrementally from documents of the same domain, document type, and speaker; or added incrementally to an already existing set of values. Speech recognition in the context of the given field is constrained to the contents of these dynamic values. If speech recognition fails or produces a poor match within this grammar or section language model, speech recognition against a larger, more general vocabulary that is not constrained to the given section is performed. | 01-03-2013 |
20140288932 | Automated Speech Recognition Proxy System for Natural Language Understanding - An interactive response system mixes HSR subsystems with ASR subsystems to facilitate overall capability of voice user interfaces. The system permits imperfect ASR subsystems to nonetheless relieve burden on HSR subsystems. An ASR proxy is used to implement an IVR system, and the proxy dynamically determines how many ASR and HSR subsystems are to perform recognition for any particular utterance, based on factors such as confidence thresholds of the ASRs and availability of human resources for HSRs. | 09-25-2014 |
