Patent ID: 8774704

Claim:
A computer-implementable method for the automated processing of an application, comprising a processor operable to execute processing logic used for: receiving an application for processing, wherein said application comprises application data associated with an applicant and said processing comprises a plurality of processing phases; selecting a first reader resource and a second reader resource from a plurality of reader resources, wherein said application is assigned to said first and second reader resources for a first processing phase; receiving input data from said first and second reader resources, said input data comprising first reader resource score data and second reader resource score data corresponding to said first processing phase; processing said first and second reader resource score data to generate a first score value and a score variance value for said first processing phase, adjusting said first reader resource score data and said second reader resource score data to respectively generate first and second adjusted score variance values within said first and second standard deviation values; selecting a third reader resource from said plurality of reader resources if said score variance value exceeds a predetermined variance value, wherein said application is assigned to said third reader resource for a second processing phase; receiving input data from said third reader resource, said input data comprising third reader resource score data; processing said third reader resource score data to generate a third adjusted score variance value; and, processing said first, second, and third reader resource score data and said first, second, and third adjusted score variance values to generate a second score value for said second processing phase.
