SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATICALLY ASSESSING FAULT IN RELATION TO MOTOR VEHICLE COLLISIONS

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method of providing a recommendation as to a fault determination for a motor vehicle collision is disclosed. The method may include receiving unstructured text describing the circumstances of the collision. The unstructured text is evaluated an associated intent related to the circumstances of the motor vehicle collision is identified. The intent is mapped to an internal node of a decision tree corresponding to a set of fault-determination rules. The computer then successively prompts and receive input responsive to the prompting that corresponds to details of the circumstances of the collision. The computer may identify, based on the received input, a path through the decision tree ending at a leaf node that corresponds to a fault-determination rule governing motor vehicle collisions that matches the circumstances of the motor vehicle collision. The recommendation is then provided based on that rule. Related systems and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
