US 2020/0089752 A1 · METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SUGGESTING REVISIONS TO AN ELECTRONIC DOCUMENT

Abstract

A method for suggesting revisions to a document-under-analysis from a seed database, the seed database including a plurality of original texts each respectively associated with one of a plurality of final texts, the method for suggesting revisions including selecting a statement-under-analysis (“SUA”), selecting a first original text of the plurality of original texts, determining a first edit-type classification of the first original text with respect to its associated final text, generating a first similarity score for the first original text based on the first edit-type classification, the first similarity score representing a degree of similarity between the SUA and the first original text, selecting a second original text of the plurality of original texts, determining a second edit-type classification of the second original text with respect to its associated final text, generating a second similarity score for the second original text based on the second edit-type classification, the second similarity score representing a degree of similarity between the SUA and the second original text, selecting a candidate original text from one of the first original text and the second original text, and creating an edited SUA (“ESUA”) by modifying a copy of the first SUA consistent with a first candidate final text associated with the first candidate original text.

Dependent claims

A method for suggesting revisions to text data, the method comprising:

obtaining a text-under-analysis (“TUA”);
obtaining an original text from a plurality of original texts;
identifying an edit operation of the original text with respect to a final text associated with the original text, the edit operation having an edit-type classification;
selecting a similarity scoring metric from a plurality of similarity scoring metrics based on the edit-type classification;
generating a similarity score for the original text using the selected similarity scoring metric, the similarity score representing a degree of similarity between the TUA and the original text;
and
creating an edited TUA (“ETUA”) by modifying the TUA consistent with the final text associated with the original text.

4 more elements

A system for suggesting revisions to text data, the system comprising:

a processor;
a non-transitory computer readable memory coupled to the processor, wherein the processor is configured to:
obtain a text-under-analysis (“TUA”);
obtain an original text from a plurality of original texts;
identify an edit operation of the original text with respect to a final text associated with the original text, the edit operation having an edit-type classification;
select a similarity scoring metric from a plurality of similarity scoring metrics based on the edit-type classification;
generate a similarity score for the original text using the selected similarity scoring metric, the similarity score representing a degree of similarity between the TUA and the original text;
and
create an edited TUA (“ETUA”) by modifying the TUA consistent with the final text associated with the original text.
