  • URA Pilots Innovative E-Filing System That Mimics Human Be
    Computerworld Singapore - URA pilots innovative e-filing system that mimics human be... Page 1 of 1 30 May 2006 URA pilots innovative e-filing system that mimics human behaviour Connie Chng Updated: 30 May 2006 Software company, SQL View, today received $260,717 from The Enterprise Challenge, an initiative of the Prime Minister‘s Office, to pilot an automatic electronic filing system at the Urban Redevelopment Authority. The KRIS Intelligent Filer (KIF), an innovative system that can mimic human decision-making and behaviour, uses artificial intelligence (AI) to manage electronic documents. As the system makes use of a behaviour-based AI engine, it has the capability to learn and become more accurate over time. Using the AI engine, the system is able to ”read‘ the documents to determine their content and context, and automatically classify and store the documents for convenient searches and retrieval. Said Tan Siong Leng, URA‘s deputy chief executive officer, —The KRIS Intelligent Filer will form an important part of URA‘s Enterprise Document Management System to capture and manage all its electronic records in an organised way. It will address our concerns about the integrity and authenticity of documents and at the same time, minimise our effort in classifying documents, which is a common challenge in implementing electronic document management system.“ Through pattern recognition, the KRIS Intelligent Filer learns, remembers new filing information as well as reconciles conflicting instructions each time it files new documents. The system is also able to classify information according to the roles and the security access levels of the users.

Our February 2017 Enterprise Data & Analytics Update Please see our latest update on m&a trends for the four segments of the Enterprise Data and Analytics sector that we follow, and sometimes lead, below. In December we wrote a blog post on why Data & Analytics failed the pundits predicting the outcome of the Brexit referendum and our recent Presidential Election. A few weeks ago, in our Fintech Market Update, we noted that, in spite of the fears raised by many of these same pundits, following both events, interest rates did not skyrocket – they fell; and securities markets did not crater; they rose. The sky has not fallen...yet… There are many drivers of this continued growth. Among them, we note three: The first is simply optimism. We meet with buyers, sellers, and investors every day and it is clear that in the aggregate, most are willing to bet that our institutions and sanity will prevail regardless of the breathless pronouncements of politicians and pundits. I hope they are correct. If that optimism should fail – watch out for falling objects from the sky. The second driver of growth is the abundance of cash. There is over $1 trillion of committed, unspent capital available for m&a transactions out there - and a lot of people whose job is to spend it as long as the values are rising….
