Filed:

Aug 30, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/848007

Inventors:

Nathan Summers - Alexandria VA, US
Joseph Wolf - Alexandria VA, US
Michaela Blondell - Potomac MD, US

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707102, 707E17008

Abstract:

Data that is in a tagged format, such as XML, is dynamically accessed on demand, without the requirement for pre-parsing documents containing the data and storing it in a database. A dynamic processor discovers and processes taxonomy documents pertinent to a data request by traversing linked relationships between documents. Pre-stored algorithms in the dynamic processor are used to retrieve the relevant data items from the documents.

US Classification:

715810, 707 3, 707E17014

Abstract:

Data that is in a tagged format, such as XML, is dynamically accessed on demand, without the requirement for pre-parsing documents containing the data and storing it in a database. A dynamic processor discovers and processes taxonomy documents pertinent to a data request by traversing linked relationships between documents. For taxonomies that contain data in multiple languages, the processor dynamically generates and renders a menu based upon the languages contained in the taxonomy, to enable a user to select any one of the languages for display of the data.

James Andreassi - Silver Spring MD, US

Assignee:

CompSci Resources, LLC - Alexandria VA

International Classification:

G06F 17/00

US Classification:

715234

Abstract:

An interactive interface facilitates the conversion of unstructured documents into XML-compliant documents. A document is parsed to identify fact items in the content of the document. A classifier associates initial labels with an identified fact items, and the fact items and associated initial labels are forwarded to a user for review and correction. An interface executing on a client computer presents the initial labels associated with fact items, and enables a user to correct the labels associated with the identified fact items. Upon receipt of corrected labels from the user, the classifier is trained to update probable associations of labels and fact items in accordance with the corrected labels.

International Classification:

G06T 7/00
G06Q 40/08

Abstract:

Methods and system for guiding user data capture during a scan of a vehicle using a mobile device are disclosed. A user may scan a vehicle using a camera or other sensors of the mobile device to capture data from which a three-dimensional virtual model may be generated. During the scanning process, models may be generated and evaluated according to quality metrics. Visual cues may be determined and presented to the user during scanning to indicate areas sufficiently scanned or areas requiring additional scanning to meet data quality requirements for model generation. Damage to vehicle components may be identified by analysis of the generated model, and addition data capture or user annotation entry may be directed based upon the identified damage.

Abstract:

A method and system for generating a three-dimensional representation of a vehicle to assess damage to the vehicle. A mobile device may capture multispectral scans of a vehicle from each a plurality of cameras configured to scan the vehicle at a different wavelength of the electromagnetic spectrum. A virtual model of the vehicle may be generated from the multispectral scan of the vehicle, such that anomalous conditions or errors in individual wavelength data are omitted from model generation. A representation of the virtual model may be presented to the user via the display of the mobile device. The virtual model of the vehicle may further be analyzed to assess damage to the vehicle.

Karen Wylie - Buckeye AZ, US

International Classification:

G06T 19/20
G06T 19/00

Abstract:

A virtual environment may be generated, the environment including a procedurally generated virtual property. The virtual property may include various features automatically generated based upon a procedural rule set, so as to provide variability between two or more virtual properties. One or more procedurally generated virtual properties may be provided to a user, and various virtual tools may be provided via which the user may identify relevant aspects corresponding to risk associated with the virtual property.

Abstract:

This application discloses methods, systems, and computer-implemented virtualization software applications and computer-implemented graphical user interface tools for remote virtual visualization of structures. Images are captured by an imaging vehicle of a structure and the captured images are transmitted to a remote server via a communication network. Using virtual 3D digital modeling software the server, using the images received from the imaging vehicle, generates a virtual 3D digital model of the structure and stores it in a database. This virtual 3D digital model can be accessed by remote users, using virtualization software applications, and used to view images of the structure. The user is able to manipulate the images and to view them from various perspectives and compare the before-the-damage images with images taken after damage have occurred. Based on all this the user is enabled to remotely communicate with an insurance agent and/or file an insurance claim.
