Parascript has been granted a new patent IDP provider Parascript announced that it has been granted a patent for signature verification methods and systems. The new patent allows companies to verify the identity of individuals. The proposed methods capture a signature image or signature trajectory on a digital pad, which is then verified by matching it against a reference signature, giving companies multiple use cases for identity verification. The IDP vendor had previously announced that it had developed an innovative Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology that uses an alternative machine learning approach.

What is the difference between Human-in-the-Loop Machine Learning and attended automation solutions? An attended automation solution like RPA can save companies a lot of money when it comes to automating mundane tasks. However, when it comes to learning from the interactions between RPA and humans, the technology fails. That’s where Human in the Loop Machine Learning (HITL ML) comes in. HITL ML is a method of incorporating human input and oversight into the training and decision-making processes of a machine learning model. Using HITL ML to automate complex processes offers a collaborative and flexible approach – the work done by machines complements and enhances the skills of humans, and vice versa. The benefits of this approach include greater data accuracy, greater transparency, more flexibility, and a better user experience.
