Systems and methods for automated rule-based annotation and validation of business classification

Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for selecting a classification category based on query data. An example method includes receiving query data and requesting a set of classification categories from a set of classification engines. The example method further includes receiving the set of classification categories and, if a leading classification category occurs, selecting a classification category that includes the first leading classification category. The example method further includes, if the leading classification category does not occur, forming a set of partial-digits categories by removing a first pre-determined number of digits from each classification category, and if a first leading partial-digits category from the first set of partial-digits categories occurs, selecting a second classification category consistent with the first leading partial-digits category. The example method further includes selecting a ranked priority classification category based on the priority rank for each classification engine.
