Artificially intelligent fulfillment system
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for matching documents of a supplier and demander, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) inputting a document by a supplier, wherein the document includes the supplier'"'"'s profile information and contact information;
(b) inputting a document by a demander, wherein the document includes the demander'"'"'s profile information and contact;
(c) extracting the supplier'"'"'s and demander'"'"'s profile information in said inputted documents to a commonly formatted document record for indexing purposes;
(d) indexing the supplier and demander commonly formatted document records, thereby creating an indexed electronic record of the initially inputted supplier and demander documents;
(e) comparing a supplier indexed electronic record to a demander indexed electronic record, thereby generating a score for each electronic document relative to the electronic document it was compared with;
(f) matching a supplier indexed electronic record to a demander indexed electronic record, such that supplier and demander indexed electronic documents with the most common words or phrases contained therein are matched together;
(g) displaying a match list, wherein the match list is comprised of matched indexed electronic records of a supplier or demander, wherein suppliers are matched to a given demander and demanders are matched to a given supplier; and

Abstract
An artificially intelligent system comprising a plurality of autonomous virtual machines, anonymously matching advertisements over a publicly accessible electronic network. The system automates matching of free form electronic documents for supply and demand of goods or services. Each machine employs an expert system with a geographical bias, an inherent learning capability, and tendency to improve accuracy over time. Advertisements and knowledge bases are replicated to identically configured networked machines. Each machine elicits a qualified, interactive response to an advertisement, employing electronic commerce in the purchase of contact information for a supplier, by a demander.

16. A computer-implemented method for matching documents of a supplier and demander, the method comprising the steps of:
-
(a) inputting a document by a supplier, wherein the document includes the supplier'"'"'s profile information and contact information; (b) inputting a document by a demander, wherein the document includes the demander'"'"'s profile information and contact information; (c) extracting the supplier'"'"'s and demander'"'"'s profile information in said inputted documents to a commonly formatted document record for indexing purposes; (d) indexing the supplier and demander commonly formatted document records, thereby creating an indexed electronic record of the initially inputted supplier and demander documents, wherein the step of indexing the supplier and demander commonly formatted document records to create an indexed electronic record comprises; a human expert operator that categorizes new words or phrases in the document record with known words or phrases stored in a hierarchal database; and a hierarchal database that stores categories of known words or phrases and compares them to the known words or phrases in the document record; (e) comparing a supplier indexed electronic record to a demander indexed electronic record, thereby generating a score for each electronic document relative to the electronic document it was compared with; (f) matching a supplier indexed electronic record to a demander indexed electronic record, such that supplier and demander indexed electronic documents with the most common words or phrases contained therein are matched together, wherein the step of matching a supplier indexed electronic record to a demander indexed electronic record is scoring dependent, such that supplier and demander indexed electronic documents with the most common words or phrases contained therein receive the highest scores; (g) displaying a match list, wherein the match list is comprised of matched indexed electronic records of a supplier or demander, wherein suppliers are matched to a given demander and demanders are matched to a given supplier; (h) allowing a supplier or demander to view the contents of the indexed electronic records contained in said match list; and (i) removing said supplier'"'"'s and demander'"'"'s contact information from said document records, thereby making the displayed match list of indexed electronic records to said supplier and demander anonymous. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
