'''Abstract'''
:The goal is to use AI to enable automated exact interpretation of documents by employing a computable, formalized version of Document Act Theory (semantics plus pragmatics). We focus on documents of specific types, for which the context can to a large degree be specified in advance -- for example clinical notes, insurance claims, rental contracts. The talk will describe the requirements for an AI system of this sort, using ontologies and sets of axioms from an existing automation system.

'''Jobst Landgrebe''' is the founder and CEO of [https://www.cognotekt.com/en/#solutions Cognotekt]. He has a distinguished history of contributions to medical informatics and other scientific fields.
