Contract Document Correction Proposals From Item-Level Edit History
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems fail to provide suitable corrections for contract documents based on past editing history, limiting their effectiveness in proposing amendments.
Innovation Solution
A correction proposal system that stores pre-correction and post-correction information for contract documents, allowing for the generation and provision of tailored correction proposals for similar documents based on associated content changes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If correction proposals are made based on general editing history, then the system can propose corrections, but the accuracy and relevance of proposals deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the correction proposal process by identifying and processing specific items (clauses, paragraphs, or sections) within contract documents individually. Each item is analyzed separately to determine appropriate corrections based on its specific content and context, rather than applying general corrections uniformly across the entire document. This segmentation enables more accurate and relevant correction proposals.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by tailoring correction proposals to the specific characteristics of each item within the contract document. The system analyzes the local context, content, and nature of each item to determine the most appropriate correction, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. This ensures that corrections are highly relevant and accurate for each specific item.
2Reliability
If the system stores and processes detailed pre-correction and post-correction information, then the relevance of correction proposals improves, but the information processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary action by storing and processing pre-correction and post-correction information before new correction proposals are needed. The system maintains a database of historical correction data, including the original text, proposed corrections, and final accepted changes. This pre-processing of historical data enables the system to quickly and accurately generate relevant correction proposals for new documents without requiring complex real-time analysis.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses copying by creating a database of historical correction examples that can be referenced and replicated for new documents. The system stores copies of pre-correction and post-correction information from previous contract documents, allowing it to retrieve and adapt similar correction patterns for new documents. This copying approach enables high relevance correction proposals without complex processing.
3Measurement precision
If the system analyzes and matches items between different contract documents, then the accuracy of correction proposals improves, but the processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the contract documents into discrete items (clauses, paragraphs, sections) that can be individually analyzed and matched. By processing items separately rather than analyzing entire documents at once, the system can perform accurate matching between historical and current documents while reducing overall processing time. Each segment is processed independently, allowing for efficient parallel processing.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies parameter changes by transforming the correction proposal output into multiple formats or representations that can be quickly processed and displayed. The system adjusts parameters such as the level of detail, the format of correction information, and the granularity of matching to optimize both accuracy and processing speed. This allows the system to maintain high accuracy while reducing processing time through efficient data representation and retrieval.

AI summary
In a correction proposal method, a processor may store pre-correction information that is content before correction of an item in a first contract document and post-correction information that is an item after correction amended from the item before correction in a memory in association with each other, and provide correction proposal information regarding proposal of a correction to a target item in a second contract document different from the first contract document based on the post-correction information.
