Abstract

A computer system and database adapted to help with the synthesis and assembly of informational units (lexemes) required for the preparation of professional reports. The system works iteratively, and uses certain characteristics of professional reports to predict which lexemes a user is likely to need at each iteration, allowing the user to select the most useful lexemes from a very large number of lexemes stored in a lexicon for this purpose. The characteristics of professional reports that enable the process of selection include context, predicance and coherence. The report, consisting of an assembly of lexemes, can be exported as text files having different linguistic styles, or as computer code permitting efficient retrieval and computerized analysis of the content of the report for billing, administration, or research.
