Abstract
A computer system for processing unstructured data, the computer system comprising a computer processor, a computer memory operatively coupled to the computer processor and the computer memory having disposed within it computer program instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the computer system to carry out the steps of receiving unstructured data input from a client device, analyzing the unstructured data for features that satisfy logical segment criteria by using natural language processing (NLP), and partitioning the unstructured data into logical segments based on satisfaction of the logical segment criteria.
Claims8
A computer system for natural language processing (NLP), the computer system comprising a computer processor, a computer memory operatively coupled to the computer processor and the computer memory having disposed within it computer program instructions that, when executed by the computer processor, cause the computer system to carry out the steps of:
- receiving unstructured data from a user input;
- decomposing the unstructured data into text fragments;
- receiving logical segment evaluation criteria from the user input;
- identifying features of the text fragments;
- and
- assigning a score to the text fragments for one or more logical segments.
