Abstract
A mechanism is provided in a data processing system for automatic case assignment. The mechanism extracts features from a machine readable form of a case to be assigned. An expertise classifier generates an initial case assignment matrix matching the case to a plurality of caseworkers based on the extracted features, a caseworker relationship graph, and an entity relationship graph. A personnel filter filters the initial case assignment matrix based on expertise, availability, and caseload of the plurality of caseworkers to form a final caseworker assignment. The mechanism assigns the case to an identified caseworker based on the final caseworker assignment.
