EFFICIENT FACT CHECKING METHOD AND SYSTEM
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method programmed in a non-transitory memory of a device comprising:
- a. automatically fact checking target information by comparing the target information with source information to generate a result, wherein comparing includes at least one of;
i. searching for an exact match of the target information in the source information and returning the result of the exact match search if the exact match is found;
ii. utilizing pattern matching for fact checking and returning the result of the pattern matching fact check if a pattern matching result confidence score is above a pattern matching result confidence threshold; and
iii. utilizing a natural language search for fact checking and returning the result of the natural language fact check if a natural language result confidence score is above a natural language result confidence threshold; and
b. automatically presenting a status of the target information in real-time based on the result of the comparison of the target information with the source information,wherein searching for the exact match begins searching the source information located on a fastest access time hardware device and continues to slower access time hardware devices;
wherein utilizing pattern matching begins utilizing the source information located on the fastest access time hardware device and continues to the slower access time hardware devices; and
wherein the natural language search begins searching the source information located on the fastest access time hardware device and continues to the slower access time hardware devices.

19. A method programmed in a non-transitory memory of a device comprising:
-
a. automatically fact checking target information by comparing the target information with source information to generate a result, wherein comparing includes at least one of; i. implementing a first fact check implementation for fact checking the target information using the source information and returning a first fact check result of the first fact check implementation if the first fact check result of the first fact check is above a first confidence threshold; ii. implementing a second fact check implementation for fact checking the target information using the source information and returning a second fact check result of the second fact check implementation if the second fact check result of the second fact check is above a second confidence threshold; and iii. implementing a third fact check implementation for fact checking the target information using the source information and returning a third fact check result of the third fact check implementation if the third fact check result of the third fact check is above a third confidence threshold; and b. automatically presenting a status of the target information in real-time based on the comparison of the target information with the source information, wherein implementing the first fact check implementation begins searching the source information located on a fastest access time hardware device; wherein implementing the second fact check implementation begins utilizing the source information located on the fastest access time hardware device; and wherein implementing the third fact check implementation begins searching the source information located on the fastest access time hardware device.

20. A device comprising:
-
a. a non-transitory memory for storing an application for automatically performing the following steps; i. fact checking target information by comparing the target information with source information to generate a result, wherein comparing includes at least one of; (1) searching for an exact match of the target information in the source information and returning the result of the exact match search if the exact match is found; (2) utilizing pattern matching for fact checking and returning the result of the pattern matching fact check if a pattern matching result confidence score is above a pattern matching result confidence threshold; and (3) utilizing a natural language search for fact checking and returning the result of the natural language fact check if a natural language result confidence score is above a natural language result confidence threshold; and ii. presenting a status of the target information in real-time based on the result of the comparison of the target information with the source information, wherein searching for the exact match begins searching the source information located on a fastest access time hardware device; wherein utilizing pattern matching begins utilizing the source information located on the fastest access time hardware device; and wherein the natural language search begins searching the source information located on the fastest access time hardware device; and b. a processor for processing the application.
