LINGUISTIC TRANSFORMATION BASED RELATIONSHIP DISCOVERY FOR TRANSACTION VALIDATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17491816 titled 'LINGUISTIC TRANSFORMATION BASED RELATIONSHIP DISCOVERY FOR TRANSACTION VALIDATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for analyzing transaction data using a graph model and part of speech analysis. Here are the key points:

  • A graph is created to represent relationships between transaction elements.
  • Nodes in the graph represent transaction elements, and edges represent relationships between them.
  • Some nodes are tagged with a part of speech tag using a part of speech analysis model.
  • An alternative part of speech tag is generated for tagged nodes.
  • Tagged nodes with alternative part of speech tags are grouped into word groups.
  • The word groups are validated against a grammar of a natural language.
  • If a word group conforms to the grammar, additional nodes representing the word group are added to the graph.
  • The modified graph is then used to validate transactions in the transaction data.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Fraud detection: The graph model can help identify suspicious relationships between transaction elements, leading to better fraud detection.
  • Customer behavior analysis: By analyzing the relationships between transaction elements, patterns in customer behavior can be identified and used for targeted marketing or personalized recommendations.
  • Risk assessment: The graph model can be used to assess the risk associated with certain transaction elements or relationships, helping businesses make informed decisions.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Complex relationship analysis: The graph model allows for a more comprehensive analysis of relationships between transaction elements, which can be difficult to capture using traditional methods.
  • Language understanding: The part of speech analysis and grammar validation help ensure that the analysis is accurate and aligned with the natural language used in the transaction data.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved accuracy: By incorporating part of speech analysis and grammar validation, the method provides more accurate analysis and validation of transaction data.
  • Enhanced insights: The graph model enables a deeper understanding of relationships and patterns within transaction data, leading to valuable insights for businesses.
  • Efficient analysis: The method allows for efficient analysis of large volumes of transaction data, enabling real-time or near-real-time validation and decision-making.


Original Abstract Submitted

From transaction data, a graph modeling a set of relationships between transaction elements is constructed, a node of the graph representing a transaction element, an edge of the graph representing a relationship between two transaction elements. Using a part of speech analysis model, a subset of the nodes is tagged with a corresponding first part of speech tag. An alternative part of speech tag is generated for a tagged node. A set of tagged nodes is grouped into a word group including at least one tagged node having an alternative part of speech tag. The word group is validated against a grammar of a natural language. Responsive to the validating determining that the word group conforms to the grammar, a set of additional nodes representing the word group is added to the graph. Using the modified graph, a transaction in the transaction data is validated.
