<p>Methods, apparatus, and computer program products are disclosed for facilitating the mapping of legacy field names in an online vendor form with standard field names as one step in an automatic online form filling process. When a vendor registers a form with a third-party automatic form filling service, fields in the vendor's form must be mapped with standardized field names created and maintained by the third-party service. A process is described for intelligent mapping of a legacy field name in an electronic legacy form with one or more standard field names, thereby saving the vendor time and reducing the chance of error in the form registration process. A method of mapping a standard field name with a legacy field name from an electronic legacy form is described. A legacy field name is extracted from an online vendor form. A list of standard field names that are predicted to most likely map to the legacy field name is created using a linear algebra algorithm. A standard field name from the list that actually maps to the legacy field name is selected. A knowledge base of vectors used to create the list of predicted standard field names is micro-adjusted to reflect the selection of the predicted standard field name that actually maps to the legacy field name.</p> |
