As the technology is advancing, an era of automation is witnessed in each field. Intelligent Process Automation (IPA) is amalgamation of Robotic Process Automation (RPA) with Artificial Intelligence with a view to create end-to-end processes which can think, learn, and adapt on their own. This paper aims to present a comprehensive study of the RPA tools associated to the intelligent automation using Artificial Intelligence. It also provides a brief overview of the current development in IPA market which can contribute to the implementation of the IPA in various organizations. Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, Robotic Process Automation, Natural Language Processing, Intelligent Process Automation, Machine Learning I. Introduction The entire workplace is undergoing digital transformation wherein Robotic Process Automation (RPA) trend appears to be persistent [1]. In future every factory/office would prefer to adapt Intelligent Process Automation (IPA) as it will be at the forefront of RPA revolution [4-7]. Table 1 depicts the difference between IPA and RPA technologies [2-3]. IPA guides the businesses to automate processes by making use of various types of data i.e., structured, unstructured, and semi-structured. It is a technology that allows to configure a so-called software robot or bot, to compete with the work that is carried out by a human, responsible for interacting with a system for executing the process. In other words, it is a combination of process enhancements and next generation tools with an aim to reduce or eliminate repetitive as well as regular tasks where it imitates human behavior and learn from it with anaim to increase the efficiency in each iteration. Due to the popularity of Deep Learning (DL) and cognitive technologies, the automation levels can be supplemented with decision making capability. The aim of IPA is to give higher efficiency by utilizing the employees for other complex tasks which will enhance job satisfaction, productivity [8] and the output within time while reducing the errors. The figure 1 represents IPA. Fig. 1: IPA includes RPA and AI [9] Table 1: Comparison of RPA and IPA. RPAw IPA It can be termed as a software robot which helps businesses to automate processes by mimicking human action on computers with little or no human assistance. It is a combination of RPA with various AI technologies, or it can be also termed as next generation of RPA which has a capability to handle far more complex processes rather than just carrying out automation of routine tasks. It helps to automate high volume processes which are repetitive and mundane in nature. It brings a measure of decision making to the processes or tasks with an aim to meet challenging demands. It makes the processes quicker, reliable, and efficient. It consists of primarily screen scrapping and workflow automation. It increases the scope of RPA by combining new technologies such as Machine Learning (ML), Intelligent workflows, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Data extraction and Artificial Intelligence (AI). It utilizes structured data to complete tasks. It has the capability to handle both structured and unstructured data and the major advantage is that it also supports decision making. It does not have ability to learn and is designed primarily to mimic human actions. It can understand context, learn, and iterate and after some time also can perform better than humans. II. Related Work This section will discuss various existing works including prediction, technologies, benefits, and applications in area of IPA. 2021 10th International Conference on System Modeling & Advancement in Research Trends (SMART) | 978-1-6654-3970-1/21/$31.00 ©2021 IEEE | DOI: 10.1109/SMART52563.2021.9676222 Authorized licensed use limited to: Cardiff University.

10th International Conference on
System Modeling & Advancement in Research Trends, 10th –11th December, 2021 Faculty of Engineering & Computing Sciences, Teerthanker Mahaveer University, Moradabad, India 186 Copyright © IEEE–2021 ISBN: 978-1-6654-3970-1 uses algorithms that can work efficiently in both supervised data and unsupervised data with an objectivetoidentifypatternsindata.TheSupervised algorithms prior to making predictions of their own create inputs and outputs and the unsupervised algorithms observe structured data and develop insights majorly from pattern recognition. In IPA, the bots can evaluate the efficiency of processes and adjust improve processes. • DL [22] is a subset of ML as it provides the system with advanced thinking capabilities which can analyze data at an advanced level. It makes use of artificial neural network like the ones which has been go gifted to the humans. DL gives the computer systems a more in-depth knowledge to analyze and draw conclusions on the given data. • Cognitive computing aims to provide improved interaction between people and machines. It is a technology where the primary focus is to imitate human personality. The thought process, personality, and sentiment help a system in the decision-making process. • Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) aims to convert handwritten text characters into a format readable by machine. The difference between Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and ICR is that the capability of OCR is restricted to printed data however, the ICR, is intelligent enough to decipher data from non-standard documents, which contain handwritten texts with varied formats. • Optical mark recognition (OMR) is a technology which helps in recognizing tick/check marks in a form and has the capability to check underlined text and shaded circles. • Optical barcode reader (OBR) is a technology which helps in reading barcoded data from a document. • Computer vision is a field of ML used in the interpreting device and interpretation stage which enables computers and systems to derive meaningful information from digital images, videos and other visual inputs and take actions or make recommendations based on that information. • NLP analyses human language with an aim to provide machines with a capability to read, understand and derive meaning out of the context. It works through using techniques like ML and AI. It uses chat bots to determine the meaning of interactions with humans to provide users with relevant responses. D. Benefits of IPA Various benefits of IPA are as follow [7-9]: • The automation of processes and systems apart from the increase in accuracy will also provide A. IPA Predictions by Gartner It includes the following [4]: • By the year 2023, it is predicted that 40% of complete enterprise workloads may be deployed in cloud infrastructures. • By the year 2024, customer centric organizations with Internet Technology (IT) teams, which accurately understand the customer requirements, will outperform other organizations by approximately 20%. • By the year 2025, approximately 50% of the world population will experience a minimum one program on Internet of Behaviors (IoB). • By the year 2025, it is predicted that approximately 40%ofthebusinessesbasedonphysicalexperience will outperform its competitors by switching to virtual experiences. All the major organizations are focusing on the best way to provide virtual experience to the customers, thereby, creating new digital processes with an aim to provide the best experience to the customer. B. The Three Pillars of IPA IPA majorly includes three technologies which will accelerate business and technology transformation [5]. • The first and the most important component for IPA will be AI where intelligent use of ML [10] and algorithms can provide businesses with a knowledge base and hence, meaningful predictions can be made for an organization in advance. AI can also be termed as decision engine of IPA. • The second component will be Business Process Management (BPM) which will provide agile processes and automate the workflows thus, improving interactions. • The third component is RPA which can leverage various domains of AI to automate and perform more complex tasks with near 100% accuracy. C. IPA Technologies Various technologies of IPA are as follows [6-22]: • RPA automates routine and mundane tasks such as document processing, analysis of data, followed by extraction. It is highly customizable and is based on rules which mean that organizations can use it for undertaking calculations, preparing reports and file documentation. • Smart workflow tools can be termed as process management solutions that are used to control RPAs and integrate the task hand offs performed by employees and machines, along with real time tracking of tasks. • ML is a subset of AI, and it provides systems with an ability to learn from the data without there be any requirement of it being programmed.

Intelligent Process Automation:
The Future of Digital Transformation Copyright © IEEE–2021 ISBN: 978-1-6654-3970-1 187 flexibility as well as scalability to an organization. Further, changes can be immediately implemented without requirement of any training on new processes to the human workforce. • The human workforce can be utilized for more complex and challenging tasks which will enhance their job satisfaction as an employee gets disinterested easily by performing repetitive mundane tasks. • It yields a better Return on Investment for large organizations. IPA utilizes the power of AI to take better decisions which in turn provides consistency to tasks which are repetitive in nature. Fig. 2: Benefits of IPA [24] • It helps to provide an enriching experience to the customer as the queries are processed faster with accuracy. • The issues of compliance and regulations can be consistently addressed by a company due to the automation as the human error is nullified in this approach. E. Applications of IPA Various applications of IPA are as follows [14]: • Processing and interpreting unstructured data: ML can be used to interpret and route the customer queries, emails as well as tickets which then triggers RPA to provide an automated and streamline response. • Predictive analytics: The complex ML algorithms can make predictions about a customer and change in the customer’s behavior and can organize retention response. • Predictive maintenance: The fault risks can be detected in complex machinery by using ML thereby providing an alert for proactive repair. • Anomaly detection: By using the power of AI, the anomaly can be timely detected and accordingly, the corrective action can be taken by the organizations [15-21]. • Forecasting: Forecasting of demand is a common challenge across various industries. Therefore, RPA can be used to gather real time and local data. Then time sensitive ML can be used to identify the choke points and improve the accuracy. • Real time optimization: As proactive identification of issues in logistics can optimize routing of goods, therefore IPA can provide real time alerts to the companies so that corrective action can be taken in advance. F. Proposed methodology for IPA Implementation in an Organisation IPA aims to provide a competitive advantage to companies only when companies create a clear roadmap to success. The key consideration for organizations seeking to pursue RPA and, more importantly, migrating towards successful IPA deployments to drive a more efficient workforce is as follows [24-26]: Align IPA with the Goals to be Achieved: To fully optimize the power of IPA, an organization must create a journey map that is in sync with the business strategy. The goal for implementation of IPA in an organization should be concise and clear. OptimizetheProcessesfirstbeforeIPAImplementation: IPA can provide the greatest impact only once the when the processes are fully optimized. From there, AI and ML along with other technologies can help improve the processes furthermore. Tool Selection: It is important that right tool should be selected to automate the process wherein the thorough understandingofRPAandprocessesistakenintoconsideration The techniques which are employed in Intelligent automation can be further broken down into following. Look: ICR, OCR & OBR are used for converting the images of handwritten or printed text into the digital format. The use cases include invoice scanning, passport face detection and face verifications. Read and Understand: Understanding of text after reading is performed using Natural Language Processing (NLP). It uses few predefined techniques to analyze the natural language and speech. NLP technique is used to understand the context of a message. After understanding it further transforms the unstructured data into a structured data which is used as an input for achieving the desired automation. Its use cases comprise of chatbots for self-help and chatbots for answering FAQs. Learn: It is carried out by using ML algorithms which enable a system to derive patterns out of structured, semi structured, and unstructured data without any requirement of programming the system to derive insights out of the data.

The best use cases to enunciate use of cognitive reasoning is carrying out risk assessment and enhancing back-office employees while making judgements. Communicate: As the NLP evolves the conversational AI helps powering the Virtual agents which can hold well- structured conversations between user and machine. The best use of NPL include to have a human-like conversation with a customer and seamlessly handover to human if needed and to create an intent Figure 3: Ever and emotion capturing virtual assistant that can determine the best course of action during conversation. Fig. 3: Everest Group RPA Tools PEAK Matrix Assessment 2021 [28] The implementation of IPA is not a one-time process, it is defined as an implementation of a roadmap in the organization to keep automating each and every processes which are currently done manually. G. Challenges of using IPA in an Organization The most common challenges of integrating IPA in an organization include the following [27]: • The inadequacy of skilled manpower in field of IPA to implement process automation in large scale organizations. • The retraining and re skilling of staff is required to use IPA technology in an organization. • There is a requirement to integrate IPA technology with the software solutions already present in the industry. • Managing the resistance from human workers because of fear of rightsizing. • The challenge of implementing robust cybersecurity in dealing with threats from hackers.

It includes Automation Anywhere University, Bot Games, Imagine Conference, Bot Lab, A Listers and A-People. It provides a unique cloud based intelligent automation to the world which is also linked with automation for the major Indian companies. Nice [39-41]: Nice helps in pairing every service agent in any organization with virtual attendant. The human and robot bot’s duo combo will provide truly exceptional customer experience. Nice Employee Virtual Attendant (NEVA) works side-by-side with employees, guiding them through complex time taking processes and automating their repetitive work from any location in the world. Microsoft [42-44]: Microsoft has introduced RPA with AI in newly launched windows 11. It can help in repetitive and time-consuming tasks so that a user can focus on high value task. It has also implemented low code or no code interface so that it should be easy to use, regardless of the individual technical specialties. IV. Conclusion and Future Challenges The emergence of IPA is the next big game changer for digital transformation of the companies in future. This paper provides a comprehensive introduction to IPA and all the related aspects. It has been observed that most of the proprietary tools implement the algorithms based on the objectives of AI which comprises of recognition, classification, extraction, and optimization of knowledge from the documents or processes. This work provides descriptionofvarioustechnologies,benefits,andapplications of IPA. Further, it summarizes various IPA tools which can be used by organizations to automate their repetitive mundane tasks. A comparison of leading IPA solution providers has also been provided in tabular representation. Therefore, all the repetitive tasks including the tasks which do not require human intervention will be taken over by IPA with more accuracy. Future challenge includes the lack of strategy or clear vision to implement IPA. References [1] Learning Robotic Process Automation: Create Software robots and automate.
