AUTOMATION OF AUDITING CLAIMS
First Claim
1. A computerized method comprising:
- receiving data, via a processor, indicative of a vehicle make and model, the data comprising one or more make fields and one or more model fields;
preparing, using the processor, the one or more model fields for translation by;
applying one or more rules from a plurality of rules; and
associating each field of the one or more model fields with a class from a list of classes;
preparing, using the processor, the one or more make fields for translation by applying one or more rules from the plurality of rules;
associating, using the processor, each field of the one or more make fields with one or more make model entries from a plurality of predetermined make model entries;
associating, using the processor, each field of the one or more model fields with one or more make model entries from the plurality of predetermined make model entries; and
automatically translating, using the processor, the data into one or more vehicle identifiers based on the associated make model entries.

Abstract
Described are computer-based methods and apparatuses, including computer program products, for automation of auditing claims. Data indicative of a vehicle make and model is received, the data comprising one or more make fields and one or more model fields. The one or more model fields are prepared for translation. The one or more make fields are prepared for translation by applying one or more rules from the plurality of rules. Each field of the one or more make fields is associated with one or more make model entries from a plurality of predetermined make model entries. Each field of the one or more model fields is associated with one or more make model entries from the plurality of predetermined make model entries. The data is automatically translated into one or more vehicle identifiers based on the associated make model entries.

22. A computerized method comprising:
-
receiving data, via a processor, indicative of a vehicle make and model, the data comprising one or more make fields and one or more model fields; associating, using the processor, each field of the one or more make fields with one or more make model entries from a plurality of predetermined make model entries, the associating including generating a temporary translation table, wherein each row of the temporary translation table comprises a manufacturer field, a make field, a model superset field, and a model subset field;
identifying a match of a make field of the one or more make fields with a predetermined make model entry; and
