Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the text processing task into distinct levels: token-level analysis using probability distributions and segment-level analysis using surreptitious language detection models. This segmentation allows the system to handle large volumes of text efficiently by processing smaller units independently, maintaining productivity while managing system complexity through modular architecture

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces machine learning models as intermediary components between raw text input and detection output. These models act as mediators that automatically analyze text patterns and generate probability distributions, enabling efficient processing of large volumes of text without requiring complex manual analysis procedures, thus improving productivity while keeping the system architecture manageable

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Measurement precision

If the system processes text at the token level to identify out-of-context words, then detection precision improves, but the processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetoken-level detection precisionVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-processing text into tokens and segments before analysis. The system pre-divides the text into manageable units and pre-generates probability distributions using machine learning models, enabling rapid detection of out-of-context tokens without requiring time-consuming analysis of the entire text at once, thus improving precision while reducing processing time

Inventive Principle:

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the detection task into different levels handled by specialized models: token-level probability distribution generation and segment-level surreptitious language detection. This segmentation allows each model to focus on specific aspects of the text, improving overall detection accuracy while optimizing computational resource usage by applying the right model at the right level rather than using a single overly complex model for everything

Inventive Principle:

AI summary

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for detecting surreptitious speech. One of the methods includes obtaining data representing a sequence of text; obtaining a sequence of tokens for the sequence of text comprising one or more groups of tokens, wherein each group comprises two or more tokens; processing the one or more groups of tokens using a first machine learning model to identify tokens that are out of context in the sequence of tokens; and providing data representing the identified tokens.
