Concurrent Document Validation UI for Cross-Document Review
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional document validation systems face inefficiencies and errors in comparing and validating data across multiple electronic documents, lacking an integrated solution for seamless visual document previews with extracted data in a unified interface.
Innovation Solution
A validation system and method that utilizes a custom user interface framework with distinct sections for document previews and extracted data, allowing interactive selection and concurrent loading of document previews based on identifiers and position coordinates to facilitate efficient validation and review across multiple documents.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual comparison of extracted data against original content across multiple documents is performed, then validation accuracy can be maintained, but the process becomes time-consuming and error-prone
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple document previews and extracted data into a single unified interface, allowing reviewers to simultaneously view and compare data across multiple documents without switching between separate applications or windows. This integration enables efficient visual validation while maintaining accuracy through direct comparison of highlighted data values across documents.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates visual copies of extracted data values and overlays them onto document previews within the same interface. This allows reviewers to see both the original document context and the extracted data representation simultaneously, enabling rapid validation without manual copying or switching between documents.
2Reliability
If reviewers navigate through multiple documents simultaneously to correlate extracted information, then comprehensive validation can be achieved, but the complexity of the review process increases
Solution Approach 1:
The interface is segmented into distinct functional areas: a document preview section displaying multiple documents simultaneously, and an extracted data section showing correlated data values. This segmentation organizes the complex validation task into manageable visual zones, reducing cognitive load while maintaining comprehensive validation capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces an intermediary visualization layer that correlates extracted data with document previews through position coordinates and identifiers. This intermediary representation simplifies the relationship between multiple documents by providing a unified visual mapping, reducing the complexity of cross-document navigation and correlation.
3Productivity
If an integrated solution combining visual document previews with extracted data is provided, then review efficiency is improved, but the interface design complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The unified interface serves multiple functions simultaneously: displaying document previews, showing extracted data, enabling visual validation, and facilitating cross-document comparison all within a single view. This multi-functionality improves review efficiency by eliminating the need for separate tools or interfaces while the standardized layout manages design complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system adds a visual dimension to data validation by overlaying extracted data representations onto document previews with position coordinates. This spatial dimensionality allows reviewers to validate data contextually within the document structure without adding significant interface complexity, as the positioning is automatically calculated and displayed.
Data Source
AI summary
A validation system enables concurrent visual validation of multiple electronic documents. A processor generates a custom user interface (UI) framework comprising two sections. The first section displays document previews, while the second holds extracted data, including identifiers for document and page IDs, along with entity positions and associated values across the documents. Upon user input on a specific document entity in the second section, the validation system concurrently loads document previews in the first section, displaying corresponding data values from the multiple documents. The updated visualization allows for validation and review operations across the documents, utilizing the received user input and loaded information.
