Abstract
Graphical element search technique selection, fuzzy logic selection for anchors and targets, and hierarchical graphical element identification for robotic process automation (RPA) are disclosed. The fuzzy logic selection of anchors and targets may be part of a larger, tiered, or hierarchical process for identifying graphical elements in the UI. When a selector for a UI element is not found with at least a confidence threshold, similar elements potentially corresponding to the selector for a UI element target may be searched based on fuzzy matching of the target and corresponding anchor(s). Geometric matching may also be employed between the target UI element and its respective anchor(s). The combination of fuzzy matching and geometric matching may allow for more flexible and accurate identification of the exact selector with which an RPA robot is attempting to interact.
