Systems and methods for contextual highlighting of a document
Systems and methods for contextual highlighting and redaction of documents are provided. Upon receiving highlighting data corresponding to a document, a client device may evaluate the highlighting data to generate a highlighting model, which may be stored in a cache of the client device. In response to an event, the highlighting model may be retrieved from the cache, and analyzed to determine a highlighting portion of a document model. A rendering of the document model including highlighting in the highlighted portion of the document model may then be displayed.
1. A computer-implemented method for performing contextual highlighting of a document at a client computing device, comprising:
receiving, via an electronic network, a response including highlighting data including a search term and corresponding to the document;
in response to receiving the response, evaluating the highlighting data to generate a highlighting model corresponding to the document by indicating one or more words to be displayed as highlighted;
storing, in a local memory cache, the highlighting model and a document model corresponding to the document;
retrieving, in response to a search query event caused by a user of the client computing device selecting the document, the highlighting model and the document model from the local memory cache by: (i) selecting the document model based on one or more criteria included in the search query event, and (ii) retrieving the document model;
analyzing the document model using the highlighting model to determine a highlighting portion of the document model;
displaying, until the receiving of the response including the highlighting data including the search term is complete, obfuscated text corresponding to the document model in a viewport of a graphical user interface of the client computing device; and
displaying, in the viewport of the graphical user interface of the client computing device, a rendering of the document model including highlighting on the highlighting portion.
2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the rendering of the document model further includes displaying metadata of the document.
3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the rendering of the document model includes applying the highlighting only to a visible portion of the highlighting portion.
4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving a selection of a color; and
wherein highlighting in the highlighted portion of the document model is made in the selected color.
5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the rendering of the document model includes highlighting the highlighted portion in a black color to thereby redact the highlighted portion.
6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the analyzing the document model using the highlighting model to determine the highlighting portion of the document model includes determining the highlighting portion to include a synonym of the search term.
7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the analyzing the document model using the highlighting model to determine the highlighting portion of the document model includes determining the highlighting portion to include a translation of the search term into a different language.
8. A client computing device comprising one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to:
receive, via an electronic network, a response including highlighting data including a search term and corresponding to a document;
in response to receiving the response, evaluate the highlighting data to generate a highlighting model corresponding to the document by indicating one or more words to be displayed as highlighted;
store, in a local memory cache, the highlighting model, and a document model corresponding to the document;
retrieve, in response to a search query event caused by a user of the client computing device selecting the document, the highlighting model and the document model from the local memory cache by: (i) selecting the document model based on one or more criteria included in the search query event, and (ii) retrieving the document model;
analyze the document model using the highlighting model to determine a highlighting portion of the document model;
display, until the receiving of the response including the highlighting data including the search term is complete, obfuscated text corresponding to the document model in a viewport of a graphical user interface of the client computing device; and
display, in the viewport of the graphical user interface of the client computing device, a rendering of the document model including highlighting on the highlighting portion.
9. The client computing device of claim 8 , wherein the display of the rendering of the document model further includes displaying metadata of the document.
10. The client computing device of claim 8 , wherein the display of the rendering of the document model includes applying the highlighting only to a visible portion of the highlighting portion.
11. The client computing device of claim 8 , wherein the display of the rendering of the document model includes highlighting the highlighted portion in a black color to thereby redact the highlighted portion.
12. A computer-implemented method for performing contextual redaction of a document at a client computing device, comprising:
receiving, via an electronic network, a response including redaction data including a search term and corresponding to the document;
in response to receiving the response, evaluating the redaction data to generate a redaction model corresponding to the document by indicating one or more words to be displayed as redacted;
storing, in a local memory cache, the redaction model, and a document model corresponding to the document;
retrieving, in response to a search query event caused by a user of the client computing device selecting the document, the redaction model and the document model from the local memory cache by: (i) selecting the document model based on one or more criteria included in the search query event, and (ii) retrieving the document model;
analyzing the document model using the redaction model to determine a redaction portion of the document model;
display, until the receiving of the response including the redaction data including the search term is complete, obfuscated text corresponding to the document model in a viewport of a graphical user interface of the client computing device; and
displaying, in the viewport of the graphical user interface of the client computing device, the entire determined redaction portion of the document model in a solid color.
13. The computer-implemented method of claim 12 , further comprising:
receiving a selection of a color; and
setting the solid color to be the selected color.
