Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of automatic document generation.
- the invention finds particular application to the automatic generation of documents such as proxies or powers that are intended to authorize an agent to perform an action on behalf of a principal.
- the power that allows a lawyer or law firm to represent a person before a national or regional court to perform legal and / or administrative acts For example, the power that allows a lawyer or law firm to represent a person before a national or regional court to perform legal and / or administrative acts.
- the lawyer relies on a network of lawyers authorized to represent his client before the various jurisdictions concerned, and must take care to have his client sign a different power for each jurisdiction to which the action must be executed.
- This problem arises in particular to perform acts (filing, withdrawal, etc.) relating to patent applications, trademark or design and model.
- the lawyer In such a case, the lawyer must contact the authorized persons one by one, receive one by one the forms of power which he must transmit for signature to his client (who gives the power), then send them back to the various lawyers of his network for execution of the action in different jurisdictions.
- systems and methods are known that are based on the collection of powers that are scanned and stored in a database. Managing such a power database is complex because it must contain a document for every situation that may occur.
- the database must include both a general power relating to the filing of a patent application in Europe in the French language and a specific power relating to the withdrawal of a trademark in Italy in the Italian language.
- the document to be generated comprises a determined number of paragraphs whose content is determined.
- automatic methods for generating documents from a database of paragraphs According to these methods, different paragraphs can be selected and associated together to form the document to be generated.
- a generation method is known for assisting the drafting of contracts in which a user accesses a computer interface from an internet browser and selects the clauses that he wishes to add to the contract to be generated.
- the paragraphs relating to the selected clauses are automatically integrated into a document of the PDF type.
- Such a document generation method is adapted to automatically generate a single power for a given jurisdiction. Nevertheless, if the user wishes to obtain a power for another jurisdiction, the user must again select the appropriate paragraphs, which is a waste of time.
- the generation methods of the prior art require a high computing power.
- the generation time is important, which has a disadvantage for users.
- such generation methods are not suitable for generating documents whose paragraphs and formatting are strictly enforced, for example, to generate an official form of an industrial property office.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide a solution to the aforementioned problems and disadvantages, among others.
- the invention relates to a method for automatically generating at least one document, in particular of the type of proxy intended to authorize a proxy to perform an action on behalf of a the document containing a plurality of paragraphs displayed according to a layout, said plurality of paragraphs and said layout being a function of at least a first parameter and a second parameter, the method implementing a database comprising at least less:
- a database of pre-finalized documents in PDF format comprising a fixed frame, comprising predetermined paragraphs and a layout, and at least one variable field;
- a static index associating each generation context with a virtual document or a pre-finalized document in PDF format of the pre-finalized database, a virtual document comprising at least one pointer aimed at a determined layout of the database of layouts and a plurality of pointers for specific paragraphs of the paragraph base;
- the content and the values as such elements of the document to be generated are dissociated from the association logic of said elements (virtual document).
- Such dissociation provides great flexibility for generating documents.
- the method makes it possible to generate either documents whose format and content (layout and paragraphs) are freely defined by request in the corresponding databases, or documents whose frame is fixed (for example a frame imposed by Offices industrial property).
- a user can simultaneously generate documents of different natures.
- each generation context is associated with a virtual document that includes the definition of all the elements of the document. on page and paragraphs).
- the virtual documents and the static index one directly determines the content of a document to be generated from the generation context.
- Such a generation method limits the waiting time of a user who obtains the desired document instantaneously, the generation method being thus more efficient since it requires less computing resources than the methods of the prior art.
- Such a method is particularly advantageous for generating a large number of documents simultaneously, in particular, powers for a plurality of jurisdictions.
- the static index makes it possible to associate a generation context with a document pre-finalized in PDF format directly, the PDF document being stored in the static index, or indirectly, the static index comprising a pointer for the pre-document. - finalized in PDF format of the database pre-finalized in PDF format.
- the same paragraph of the paragraph base is pointed by several different virtual documents.
- the same layout is pointed to by several different virtual documents.
- a large number of different documents can be generated with a limited number of paragraphs and / or layouts. Sharing paragraphs and layouts makes maintenance easier.
- the use of a static index also makes it possible to precisely analyze the level of mutualization of paragraphs and layouts, which facilitates maintenance as well as the creation of new documents to be generated. As an example, if a paragraph is pointed out by only a few virtual documents, it may be interesting to check if it can not be replaced by a similar paragraph with a higher mutualization rate.
- the modification made is reflected on all the documents generated from virtual documents pointing to said modified paragraph.
- a large plurality of documents to be generated is modified by modifying only one paragraph of the database, the virtual document not being advantageously modified.
- the document comprises at least one paragraph comprising a fixed frame and at least one variable field, thus allowing a personalization of said paragraph and / or a limitation of the number of paragraphs of the base of paragraphs.
- the fixed frame of said paragraph is stored in the database with the other paragraphs.
- the method comprises an inputting step in an input form, or a step of recovery in another database, of the value of the variable field of said paragraph.
- the method comprises a step of generating an input form according to the generation context and an input step in the form for entering the value of the variable field of said paragraph.
- the input form and therefore the variable fields are correlated to the generation context, which facilitates and speeds up the input of the variable fields.
- the step of selecting at least one parameter is conditional on the value of at least one other parameter.
- it favors the formation of combinations of compatible parameter values, the impossible combinations can not be selected, which provides a saving of time for the user.
- the selection step Preferably, several values of the same parameter are selected during the selection step so as to form several generation contexts and thus generate several documents.
- Such a method thus makes it possible to generate a large number of documents simultaneously and, in particular, powers for a plurality of documents. different jurisdictions.
- Such a multiple selection makes it possible to reduce the selection time of the user; indeed, in a single manipulation (that is to say, a single implementation of the method according to the invention), the user can generate a batch of documents of different types. Simultaneous generation of a plurality of documents is known to those skilled in the art under its English term "batch". Thanks to the index, such a generation of a plurality of different documents "in batch" is implemented quickly.
- the method comprises a step of consulting the static index to obtain the virtual documents or the pre-finalized documents associated with said generation contexts and a step of generating said documents.
- the method comprises a step of consulting the static index in order to obtain the virtual documents associated with said generation contexts, a request step in the database of the layout and paragraphs pointed by said documents. obtained virtual and a step of generating said documents in an electronic format, containing the paragraphs returned by said request and the layout returned by said request for each virtual document obtained.
- several different documents are generated simultaneously and conveniently thanks to the static index.
- the static index comprises the same virtual document associated with several different generation contexts so as to limit the number of virtual documents.
- the virtual documents can also be shared, such that the same virtual document is associated with a plurality of generation contexts.
- a large number of build contexts allow a user to precisely choose the document he wants to generate.
- the virtual document pooling makes it possible to offer the user a wide selection of documents to generate while keeping a limited number of virtual documents.
- a user can form a very precise generation context corresponding to his expectations, whereas said generation context is associated with a virtual document itself associated with other more general generation contexts.
- the precise wishes of the user are granted while maintaining a rapid generation process, reliable and easy to maintain.
- the static index determines the mutualization level of each virtual document, which facilitates the maintenance of said static index.
- the static index has the same pre-finalized PDF document associated with several different generation contexts.
- the static index makes it possible to improve the pooling.
- the document pre-finalized in PDF format is a document of the form type.
- the invention also relates to a system for automatically generating at least one document, in particular of the type of proxy intended to authorize a proxy to perform an action on behalf of a client, the document containing a plurality of paragraphs displayed according to an implementation. page, said plurality of paragraphs and said layout being a function of at least a first parameter and a second parameter, the generation system comprising:
- a pre-finalized PDF format database comprising a fixed frame, comprising predetermined paragraphs and a layout, and at least one variable field; a list of values of said first parameter;
- a static index associating each generation context with a virtual document or a document pre-finalized in PDF format, a virtual document comprising at least one pointer for a determined layout of the layout database and a plurality of pointers referring to specific paragraphs of the base paragraphs;
- a generation module able to:
- o consult the static index in order to obtain the virtual document or the document pre-finalized in PDF format of the database pre-finalized in PDF format associated with a previously determined generation context; o In the case of a virtual document, make a query in the database of the layout and paragraphs pointed to by the resulting virtual document and generate a document in an electronic format, containing the paragraphs returned by the said request and the layout returned by the request.
- the system of the invention has the same advantages as the process of the invention.
- the generation module is able to recover the value of the variable field of said paragraph in an input form or in another database and to associate this value with the fixed frame of said paragraph.
- the system comprises means capable of generating an input form depending on the generation context.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of an automatic document generation system from a database of a data server
- FIG. 2 is a schematic representation of a generated document
- FIG. 3 is a general schematic representation of the steps of the automatic document generation method.
- FIG. 4 is a schematic representation of said steps implemented in relation to the elements of the database of the generation system.
- the invention relates to a method of automatic generation of a document, such as a proxy-type document intended to authorize a proxy to perform an action on behalf of a principal, for example a power to authorize an attorney or industrial property attorney to represent a client before a national or regional industrial property office for the management of one or more industrial property rights.
- the generation method is implemented by a generation system comprising a data server 2 accessible by a user terminal 1 via a communication network 4, preferably via the Internet network.
- the data server 2 comprises a database 3 from which a plurality of DOC documents can be generated.
- the data server 2 further comprises a generation module (not shown) in the form of a computing unit, for example a processor.
- the user terminal 1 is a computer system comprising a central unit, a display device such as a screen, a pointing device such as a mouse and an input device such as a keyboard.
- the database 3 is stored in a data server central processing unit 2, but it could be stored in a separate and / or remote storage device accessible by any means of ad hoc communication.
- the database 3 may itself be stored on a single storage device, or distributed on several separate storage devices and / or remote from each other.
- the display and the retrieval of the DOC generated document are carried out on the user terminal 1 via the communication network 4.
- the data server 2 implements a web interface through which the user terminal 1 can select parameter values defining the nature of the document to be generated.
- Documents generated DOC are downloadable from this web interface and can be displayed by the latter.
- a document to be generated DOC comprises a plurality of paragraphs PA1, PA2, PA3 which are presented according to at least one MP layout.
- MP layout means all the display characteristics determining the position according to which, and the manner in which the contents of the paragraphs are displayed in a DOC document.
- this can include display font characteristics, display font size, display color, underlining, framing, presence or not head (s) and / or foot (s) of page and / or logo (s), etc.
- the database 3 comprises a base of paragraphs BPA as well as a base of layouts BMP which are preferably organized according to certain criteria in order to facilitate their maintenance and their update. In other words, the database 3 groups the constituent elements of documents to generate DOC.
- the generation of a DOC document is a function of at least a first parameter PI and a second parameter P2.
- the database 3 comprises a list of LPI values of the first parameter PI and a list of values LP2 of the second parameter P2.
- the invention applies to the generation of a DOC document from more than two parameters as well as the generation of a plurality of documents from a plurality of parameters.
- each combination of values of the first parameter PI and the second parameter P2 forms a context for generating the document k. Nevertheless, some combinations of parameters are and form erroneous generation contexts that are not associated with a virtual document.
- the database 3 comprises a static index INDEX associating each generation context k, either with a virtual document DOCv, or with a document pre-finalized in PDF DOCPDF format.
- the static index INDEX (and more precisely its content) is predetermined or predefined before the implementation of the generation method.
- it will present an association of a generation context k with a DOCv virtual document then it will be presented in a second part an association of a generation context k with a document pre-finalized in PDF DOCPDF format .
- a virtual document DOCv is a computer object having at least one POMP pointer (not shown) for a determined layout MP of the BMP layout database and a plurality of POPAI, POPA2, POPA3 pointers (not shown) for paragraphs PA determined from the base of paragraphs BPA
- a DOCv virtual document for a determined generation context k includes a link to the appropriate MP layout in said generation context k and links to the appropriate PA paragraphs in said generation context k.
- the static index INDEX determines the logical organization of the constituent elements of a document (paragraphs and layout) to form a document to generate DOC from a generation context k.
- Each DOCv virtual document comprises the set of links to form the DOC document for a determined generation context k. Since each DOCv virtual document contains all the links (pointers) to form the DOC document for a given generation context k, it is also possible, by analysis of the static index INDEX, to know which paragraphs PA and which updates PM page are used in which DOC documents. In other words, the analysis of the static index INDEX makes it possible to know the level of mutualization of each paragraph PA of the base of paragraphs BPA and each layout MP of the database of layouts BMP. As an example, with this analysis, an unused paragraph of the BPA paragraph database can be deleted, or a little used MP layout, with a low level of pooling, can be removed and replaced with a new one.
- a base of BPA paragraphs OR BMP layouts with fewer PA paragraphs and MP layouts is easier to maintain and update.
- the bases of BMP layouts and BPA paragraphs form reservoirs of elements for the documents to be generated DOC, the static index INDEX forming the logical links for organizing said elements within a DOC document depending on the desired k generation context.
- the element reservoirs, on the one hand, and the logic of organization of said elements, on the other hand, are dissociated, which accelerates the maintenance of the database 3 while offering a great freedom of design.
- a plurality of generation contexts k are associated with identical DOCv virtual documents (or even, preferably, the same DOCv virtual document), and therefore with identical pointers.
- a first generation context k1 relating to the following parameter values "filing of a patent application; Belgium ; specific "and a second generation context k2 relating to the following parameter values” filing of a patent application; Belgium ; General "are associated with the same DOCv8 virtual document.
- a DOC generated document for a general power of patent application in Belgium is identical to a DOC generated document for a specific power of patent application in Belgium.
- the user thus has the possibility of choosing a specific or general power whereas the generated documents are identical, since they are associated with the same virtual document.
- Such a virtual document pooling makes it possible to limit the number of virtual documents of the INDEX static index while allowing the user to choose precisely the document of his choice.
- This pooling of PA paragraphs and MP layouts makes it possible to reduce the quantity of information to be stored but also to facilitate maintenance. For example, it facilitates the creation of new documents to be generated whose content is similar to other documents existing in the database 3. It also facilitates the application of the same modification to a series of existing documents in the database. 3.
- association of a generation context k to a document pre-finalized in PDF DOCPDF format It will be presented an association of a generation context k to a document pre-finalized in PDF DOCPDF format.
- the document to be generated DOC may comprise a fixed frame, for example imposed by a national industrial property office, and empty areas to be completed.
- the format is imposed strictly and it is not possible to freely reproduce it by choosing a layout or paragraphs from the corresponding databases.
- the database 3 further comprises a BPDF database of documents pre-finalized in PDF DOCPDF format each comprising a fixed frame - including predetermined paragraphs and a layout - and a variable field in place of each empty zone.
- the static index INDEX associates a generation context k with a pre-finalized document PDF DOCPDF indirectly, the static index INDEX comprising in this case a pointer for a document pre-finalized in PDF format.
- DOCPDF contained in the BPDF database of pre-finalized documents in PDF format.
- the static index INDEX associates a generation context k with a document pre-finalized in PDF DOCPDF format directly, the document pre-finalized PDF DOCPDF being in this case stored in the static index INDEX ; in other words, in this case, the BPDF database of pre-finalized documents in PDF format is directly contained in the INDEX static index.
- the static index INDEX associates with the generation context k the pre-finalized document PDF DOCPDF and allows, from the latter, the generation of the document DOC, whose layout and paragraphs correspond to those of the DOCPDF pre-finalized document.
- a plurality of generation contexts k can be associated with the same pre-finalized PDF document so as to increase the pooling and limit the size of the BPDF database of pre-finalized PDF documents.
- the system is able to generate an input form in which the value of the variable field is entered or retrieve the value of the variable field from another database.
- FIG. 4 schematically represents, among other elements, the main elements of an exemplary system according to the invention for implementing a method according to the invention.
- the present invention is hereinafter illustrated from an exemplary document generation consisting of powers to enable a local representative to perform an action on behalf of an applicant with a local authority or administration.
- This may include, for example, in the field of industrial property, powers to file a patent application or register a trademark, with competent local authorities.
- it is the generation of a document from the association of the generation context k to a virtual document DOCv in the static index INDEX.
- the DOC document to be generated contains three paragraphs and a layout that determines the position of the paragraphs in specific locations, their display with a certain display font, of a certain size, underlined or not, in bold or not.
- the layout and paragraphs of the DOC document depend on a number of parameters, in this case:
- a second parameter P2 consisting of the local administration with which the action must be carried out.
- These parameters PI, P2 can take values grouped in lists of values LPI, LP2 stored in the database 3.
- the list of LPI values of the first parameter PI relating to the nature of the action includes different possible values such as: the deposit, the withdrawal, etc.
- the list of LP2 values for the second local government P2 parameter includes different possible values such as: the European Patent Office (EPO), the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and so on.
- the different possible values for the second parameter P2 may be a function of the possible values of the first parameter PI.
- the selection can be conditional, and more precisely the values of the second parameter P2 that can be selected are conditioned to the value chosen for the first parameter PI.
- the combination (registration of a mark, EPO) is not a possible combination of parameters PI, P2.
- the set of possible (or viable) combinations of parameter values form the set of generation contexts k associated with DOCv virtual documents and thus allowing the generation of DOC documents.
- steps E1-E4 of the generation method according to the invention will now be presented in detail.
- the method comprises a step El of selecting a value of the first parameter P1 and a value of the second parameter P2 so as to form a generation context k.
- the combination (PI, P2) of the values "filing of a patent application; Belgium forms the context of generation k.
- the method further comprises a consultation step E2 of the static index INDEX to obtain the DOCv virtual document associated with said generation context k, that is to say, "filing a patent application; Belgium ".
- the virtual document DOCv associated with said generation context k has four pointers:
- the pointers PO I AP, P02PA, P03PA, POMP refer respectively to the paragraphs PA154 PA367, PA585 and the layout MP12. Such pointers are advantageous because they make it possible to determine in a direct and predetermined manner the elements of the DOC document to be generated for the determined generation context k. In other words, there is no conditional step that can slow down the generation of the DOC document.
- the method comprises a request step E3 in the database 3 of the elements targeted by the pointers PO I PA, P02PA, P03PA, POMP of the virtual document DOCv obtained for the determined generation context k, that is to say, paragraphs PA154 PA367, PA585 and MP12 layout.
- Generation stage E4 The method further comprises a generation step E4 of said DOC document in an electronic format, the DOC document containing the paragraphs returned by said request step E3, arranged according to the layout MP12 also returned by the request step E3.
- the generation of a document DOC is immediate because of the speed of the request step E3. This is particularly advantageous when the generation context k is formed from a large number of parameter values, the large number of values not affecting the processing time since the static index is predetermined. The number of documents to generate simultaneously has little influence on the speed of generation of documents.
- At least one paragraph PA comprises a fixed part, designated “fixed frame”, and at least one variable part, designated “variable field”.
- the value of the variable field can be entered directly by the user or obtained by query in another database.
- the step of generating the document then comprises an entry step in an input form, or a step of retrieval in another database, of a value of the variable field, and a step of inserting this value into the paragraph PA with the fixed frame of the paragraph.
- the paragraph includes a fixed frame indicating the actions to be performed on a European patent right whose filing number is not completed.
- the deposit number is a variable field.
- the fixed frame of the pointed paragraph is completed by the deposit number entered directly by the user or retrieved in another database. In the latter case, for example, the deposit number can be retrieved from another database containing the list of the patent rights of the user.
- a paragraph PA has been presented with a single variable field.
- a PA paragraph could have more than one, for example, a deposit number, a filing date, the name of an agent, and so on.
- the value of a variable field is chosen from among a series of possible values presented to the user, for example in the form of a drop-down list of values in which the user can choose one or more values. for the variable field.
- the method comprises a step of generating an input form that is a function of the generation context. This provides great flexibility to the process that allows, depending on the generation context, to offer or not the user a form dependent on this context.
- a user selects the values of the parameters to determine the generation context of an assignment of a patent right.
- the virtual document associated with the determined generation context has pointers that refer to paragraphs PA having variable fields.
- the generation system generates the display of an input form which includes the variable fields to be completed for the set of paragraphs pointed PA; these variable fields can, for example, make it possible to introduce information on the assignment targeted by the power.
- Such a method makes it possible to customize a paragraph depending on the generation context, which is advantageous and improves the quality and accuracy of the generated documents.
- Such a method is particularly advantageous for generating simultaneously a large number of documents in which is inserted a same variable field.
- the DOC document to be generated must be made from a paper form provided by an industrial property office and which has empty areas.
- the industrial property offices' paper forms are digitized and variable fields are added in computer fashion in place of the said empty zones.
- the user selects the parameters to form a generation context k (step 1) so that the system consults the static index INDEX (step 2).
- the generation context k is associated with a DOCPDF pre-finalized document indirectly, the INDEX static index comprising a pointer for a pre-finalized document DOCPDF of the pre-finalized database. BPDF.
- the method comprises a request step E3 'in the BPDF database of DOCPDF pre-finalized documents in order to obtain the DOCPDF pre-finalized document associated with the generation context k.
- the method then comprises a step of completing the values of the variable fields of the DOCPDF pre-finalized document, in particular the number of the industrial property right, etc. This completion step can be performed by entering into an input form or by retrieving from another database as previously indicated.
- the method then comprises a step of generating a finalized document (E4).
- the invention also relates to a generation system for implementing said method.
- the invention relates to a system for automatically generating at least one document, in particular a data server 2, comprising a database 3 as presented above and a generation module able to:
- the generation system enjoys the same advantages as those related to the generation process previously presented.
- the content and the values as such elements of the document to be generated are dissociated from the association logic of said elements (virtual document).
- a dissociation allows to offer a great flexibility to generate documents thanks to the module of generation.
- the implementation of a request by the generation module is fast since each generation context is associated with a virtual document that includes the definition of all elements of the document (layout and paragraphs). .
- the content of a document to be generated from the generation context is determined directly.
- Such a generation system limits the waiting time of a user who obtains the desired document instantaneously, since the processing time of the system is thus minimized.
- Such a system is particularly advantageous for generating a large number of documents simultaneously, in particular, powers for a plurality of jurisdictions.
- the invention is not limited to a specific computer architecture, such as that shown in FIG. 4.
- Both the database 3 and the generation module can be implemented in a distributed manner or not, on one and the same unit. or not.
- the generation of the DOC document can equally well take place in the server 2 on which the generation module is implemented or at the level of a remote unit connected to the server 2 by means of a communication network, or both.
- the invention is not limited to the generation of powers, let alone the generation of powers in the field of industrial property.
- information other than the content of paragraphs and their layout could be determined by the parameter (s). For example, we can think about the existence or not of a power, the paper to use for its printing, etc.
