Greenville, Mississippi Patent of the Year – 2024/2025
Howso Incorporated has been awarded the 2024/2025 Patent of the Year for innovation in explainable artificial intelligence. Their invention, detailed in U.S. Patent No. 12260348, titled ‘Search and query in computer-based reasoning systems’, enables faster, more transparent AI decision-making through advanced search and filtering techniques.
This new system improves how AI models process, refine, and explain complex decisions. Unlike black-box models that offer little insight, this invention makes it easier to trace results back to the logic and data used.
