Obligation AI[edit]



= Obligation AI =

The process of identifying Obligations in an existing Agreement manually is tedious, time consuming and error prone. Obligation Discovery automates this process by applying Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning to this problem. This enables discovery of Obligation from the Agreement without having to read the entire Agreement text by looking up similar Obligations from the Obligations library and automatically extracting key metadata from the discovered Obligations. This feature is available in ICM through a technical configuration.

To view the Obligations in an Agreement:&nbsp;

1. '''Click'''&nbsp;the&nbsp;''Obligations ''tab on the agreement ''Details''&nbsp;page. All the obligations that AI has discovered from the agreement document are highlighted.

2. The following actions can be taken on selected Obligation:

*'''Click '''''Confirm'' to confirm the Obligation. 
*'''Click''' ''Review Later'' if you are unsure and want to review the Obligation later. 
*'''Click''' Metadata to view all the discovered metadata. The number (for example, 10.10) indicates the number of Attributes that are discovered such as ''Email, Numbers, Date and Time'', and so on.&nbsp; 
*'''Click''' ''Ignore ''to ignore the Obligation. 
*'''Click '''''Parent Clause'' to see the parent Clause that the Obligation is linked to. 

To configure Obligation Discovery:

1. '''Click'''&nbsp; ''Agreement Management >&nbsp;''''Create Agreement'' tile on the Agreement Management Index page.

2. '''Select '''the ''Category, Contract Type Name ''and the''Type of Paper''.

== ML&nbsp;based Obligation Discovery ==

Often business is interested in finding certain type of Obligations only. Our ML based obligation discovery finds all the obligations available in the document. In this release, we have enhances Obligation AI to discover only the specific obligations from the Agreement document.

One of the most important aspects of ML algorithms is having the ability to learn from the users actions. In this release, we have enhanced the Obligation AI to immediately learn from user actions.

With this release, the user can:

*Choose the type of obligation discovery method to be run for a contract i.e. from a ML based generic discovery model or from a predefined set of obligation templates 
*Self-train from the ML obligation discovery ML model based on the actions taken by the user on the discovered obligations and display a higher confidence the next time similar obligations are discovered 

To discover Obligations:

1. On the ''Create Agreement'' page, '''enter''' the ''Contract Type Name''.

2. '''Select'''&nbsp;''Own ''or&nbsp;''Third Party'' Type Of Paper.

3. '''Click''' ''Next.''
