1. AI-Driven Method for Efficient Drug Identification and Interaction Prediction

PARATA SYSTEMS, LLC, 2023

Method for identifying drug products using AI engines specialized for specific groups of drugs instead of a single large model. The method involves filtering drug product characteristics to categorize drugs into groups. AI engines are trained for each group. When a drug needs identification, its characteristics are used to select the matching engine for accurate NDC prediction or verification. This improves efficiency by avoiding retraining a large model with many drugs. It also allows smaller entities to train their own engines for the drugs they distribute. A consensus engine checks training consistency across sources to validate new drugs.
