Dynamic reject rate adjustment to optimally process uneven flow of documents while maintaining average error rate restriction

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions, which when by a processor cause the processor to execute a method for balancing resources, the method comprising:

• receiving at least a first task and a second task, during a time division, for an error-controlled process executed by a processor, wherein the time division is separated into a first time period and a second time period, wherein the first task is processed in the first time period and the second task is processed in the second time period, wherein the error-controlled process is a computer-based analysis, and wherein the computer-based analysis generates a result and a confidence value;
• changing a predicted error rate for the error-controlled process for the first time period, wherein changing the predicted error rate modifies a first throughput of the error-controlled process, and wherein the predicted error rate is adjusted by changing a confidence value threshold;
• and
• changing the predicted error rate for the second time period to maintain an average predicted error rate over the time division, wherein a turnaround to provide the result for the first task and second task is predetermined, wherein the turnaround is fixed, and wherein the turnaround prevents the first task from being processed in the second time period.

A system comprising:

• a memory;
• a processor in communication with the memory, wherein an amount of processing capacity for the processor to process a task is fixed, the processor executing:
• a processing function that:
• receives at least a first task and a second task, during a time division,
• conducts an error-controlled process on at least the first task and the second task, wherein the time division is separated into a first time period and a second time period, wherein the first task is processed in the first time period and the second task is processed in the second time period, wherein the processing function generates a result and a confidence value;
• and
• a confidence value check unit that:
• changes a first error rate for the error-controlled process for the first time period, wherein changing the first error rate modifies a first throughput of the error-controlled process, and wherein the error rate is adjusted by changing a confidence value threshold used to compare to the confidence value;
• and
• changes a second error rate for the second time period to maintain an average error rate over the time division, wherein a turnaround to provide the result for the first task and second task is predetermined, wherein the turnaround is fixed, and wherein the turnaround prevents the first task from being processed in the second time period.
