Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional mortgage loan underwriting systems are inefficient and prone to errors due to reliance on human underwriters, who must manually compare loan application data with investor guidelines, leading to bottlenecks and inefficiencies.

Innovation Solution

An intelligent underwriting system utilizing quantum ledger databases, blockchain technology, machine learning, and Bayesian inference networks to automate data validation and verification, streamlining the process by comparing loan application data against multiple sources and generating predictive models for optimal financing matches.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If human underwriters manually compare loan application data with investor guidelines, then the underwriting process can be performed with existing systems, but the process becomes slow and creates bottlenecks

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveunderwriting throughputVSAvoidunderwriting cycle time
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the mechanical manual comparison process with an automated computer-based system that uses machine learning models and algorithms to compare loan application data against investor guidelines, thereby eliminating the speed limitations of human underwriters while maintaining comprehensive guideline evaluation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables self-service by allowing the automated underwriting engine to independently evaluate loan applications, retrieve investor guidelines, perform data comparisons, and generate underwriting decisions without requiring human underwriter intervention for each application, thus dramatically increasing throughput

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Ease of operation

If human underwriters commit only a small portion of guidelines to memory, then the underwriting process can proceed, but other guidelines are ignored and human risk increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveunderwriting processabilityVSAvoidunderwriting accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The automated underwriting system performs multiple functions simultaneously: it retrieves and evaluates all investor guidelines, compares application data against each guideline comprehensively, identifies the best matching investor, and generates underwriting decisions, thereby achieving complete guideline evaluation without the limitations of human memory capacity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback mechanisms where the automated engine continuously learns from underwriting outcomes and guideline evaluations, improving its accuracy over time while maintaining comprehensive adherence to all investor guidelines through iterative model training and validation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Measurement precision

If human underwriters evaluate large quantities of data manually, then the underwriting can be completed, but the process becomes slow and creates bottlenecks

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata evaluation accuracyVSAvoidunderwriting throughput
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces manual data evaluation with automated computer-based processing that uses machine learning models to rapidly analyze large quantities of loan application data against investor guidelines, achieving both high precision through comprehensive evaluation and high throughput through automated processing speed

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

AI summary

An intelligent data matching and validation system, and associated methods, are disclosed. The system includes various processors, databases, and immutable ledgers for analyzing data such as, but not limited to, loan data. The system leverages intelligent resources such as Bayesian inference networks for determining high correlation events representative of likely outcomes based on data parameters. The system automatically updates the Bayesian inference network's weighted coefficients in response to processing loan data and corresponding target events, such as repurchase requests. The system stores outcomes from the Bayesian inference networks, as well as loan histories and associated loan data, in a ledger that is accessible to third parties via a unique cryptographic token. In one embodiment, the system conducts an intelligent underwriting of a loan or other financial asset, leveraging its access to and ability to interpret and compare data from multiple sources that lead to the intelligent underwriting of a loan.
