1. A method programmed in a non-transitory memory of a device comprising:
- a. acquiring target information;
b. processing the target information, including parsing the target information into parsed information;
c. fact checking, with the device, the target information by comparing the parsed information with source information to generate fact checking results, including indicating when the parsed information is factually accurate and indicating when the parsed information is factually inaccurate;
d. generating a modified target information by deleting the parsed information indicated as factually inaccurate;
e. summarizing the modified target information to generate a summary of the target information utilizing lexical chaining and the fact checking results generated by fact checking the target information, wherein lexical chaining includes selecting a set of candidate words or phrases, finding an appropriate chain using relatedness criteria among members of chains for each candidate word, and inserting a word in a lexical chain when the word is found, further wherein summarizing the modified target information includes determining total strengths of sentences within the target information, wherein a total strength of a sentence is based on a lexical chain strength and a factual accuracy of the sentence, further wherein the total strength of the sentence is increased when the sentence is factually accurate, wherein the summary of the target information includes the fact checking results; and
f. providing the summary of the target information in real-time.

Abstract
An optimized fact checking system analyzes and determines the factual accuracy of information and/or characterizes the information by comparing the information with source information. The optimized fact checking system automatically monitors information, processes the information, fact checks the information in an optimized manner and/or provides a status of the information. In some embodiments, the optimized fact checking system generates, aggregates, and/or summarizes content.

1. A method programmed in a non-transitory memory of a device comprising:
-
a. acquiring target information; b. processing the target information, including parsing the target information into parsed information; c. fact checking, with the device, the target information by comparing the parsed information with source information to generate fact checking results, including indicating when the parsed information is factually accurate and indicating when the parsed information is factually inaccurate; d. generating a modified target information by deleting the parsed information indicated as factually inaccurate; e. summarizing the modified target information to generate a summary of the target information utilizing lexical chaining and the fact checking results generated by fact checking the target information, wherein lexical chaining includes selecting a set of candidate words or phrases, finding an appropriate chain using relatedness criteria among members of chains for each candidate word, and inserting a word in a lexical chain when the word is found, further wherein summarizing the modified target information includes determining total strengths of sentences within the target information, wherein a total strength of a sentence is based on a lexical chain strength and a factual accuracy of the sentence, further wherein the total strength of the sentence is increased when the sentence is factually accurate, wherein the summary of the target information includes the fact checking results; and f. providing the summary of the target information in real-time. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method programmed in a non-transitory memory of a device comprising:
-
a. acquiring target information; b. processing the target information, including parsing the target information into parsed information; c. fact checking, with the device, the target information by comparing the parsed information with source information to generate fact checking results, including indicating when the parsed information is factually accurate, indicating when the parsed information is questionable, and indicating when the parsed information is factually inaccurate; d. summarizing the target information to generate a summary of the target information utilizing lexical chaining and the fact checking results generated by fact checking the target information, including determining total strengths of sentences within the target information, wherein a total strength of a sentence is based on a lexical chain strength and a factual accuracy of the sentence, further wherein the total strength of the sentence is increased when the sentence is factually accurate and the total strength of the sentence is unchanged when the sentence is questionable, further wherein summarizing the target information to generate the summary of the target information includes deleting the parsed information indicated as factually inaccurate before performing lexical chaining wherein lexical chaining includes selecting a set of candidate words or phrases, finding an appropriate chain using relatedness criteria among members of chains for each candidate word, and inserting a word in a chain when the word is found, wherein the summary of the target information includes the fact checking results; and e. providing the summary of the target information in real-time.

19. A device comprising:
-
a. a camera configured for acquiring a name of a business by acquiring an image and communicating the image to be converted into text of the name of the business, b. a non-transitory memory for storing an application for automatically performing the following steps; i. acquiring target information based on the name of the business wherein the target information includes one or more for the business; ii. processing the target information, including parsing the target information into parsed information; iii. fact checking, with the device, the target information by comparing the parsed information with source information to generate fact checking results, including indicating when the parsed information is factually accurate and indicating when the parsed information is factually inaccurate; iv. generating a modified target information by deleting the parsed information indicated as factually inaccurate; v. summarizing the modified target information to generate a summary of the target information utilizing lexical chaining and the fact checking results generated by fact checking the target information, wherein lexical chaining includes selecting a set of candidate words or phrases, finding an appropriate chain using relatedness criteria among members of chains for each candidate word, and inserting a word in a chain when the word is found, further wherein summarizing the modified target information includes determining total strengths of sentences within the target information wherein a total strength of a sentence is based on a lexical chain strength and a factual accuracy of the sentence, further wherein the total strength of the sentence is increased when the sentence is factually accurate, wherein the summary of the target information includes the fact checking results; and vi. providing the summary of the target information in real-time; and c. a processor for processing the application; d. one or more lenses configured for displaying the summary of the target information, and e. a tactile device configured for vibrating an earpiece near a user'"'"'s ear upon fact checking the target information.
