Patent number: 10540573Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for automated computer text classification and routing using artificial intelligence transfer learning. A server captures historical story data from an Agile development tracking system. For each completed story, the server generates a vector based upon story-specific features and assigns a label to the vector based upon a cycle time associated with the story. The server trains a classification model using a neural network on the vectors and labels. The server captures new story data from the Agile development tracking system. For each new story, the server generates a vector based upon story-specific features and executes the trained model on the vector to generate a cycle time prediction for the new story.

Intelligent automation of computer software testing log aggregation, analysis, and error remediation
Patent number: 10528454Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for intelligent automation of computer software testing log aggregation, analysis, and error remediation. A client device generates test log files for software automation testing tools, each test log file comprising errors generated by execution of test scripts. The client device creates an archive file with the log files and transmits the files to a server. The server extracts the files from the archive file and parses each of the files to identify errors. The server aggregates errors from at least two of the files and transmits the aggregated errors to a log management message queue and a development message queue. The server generates a user interface and transmits the user interface to a remote device. The server also generates development change orders that, when executed by the server, create tasks in a development tracking system to resolve errors by changing development source code.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2018Date of Patent: January 7, 2020Assignee: FMR LLCInventors: Ali A.

Patent number: 10521654Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for of recognizing handwritten characters in digital images using context-based machine learning. A server captures an image of a document that comprises one or more handwritten data fields, the document associated with a user identifier. The server identifies a field type for each handwritten data field in the image. The server creates a pixel intensity array for each character in each handwritten data field and determines whether a user-specific character map exists for the user identifier. If a map exists, the server retrieves the map and generates digital form data by executing a user-specific handwriting classifier using the map, the pixel intensity arrays, and the field types. If a map does not exist, the server builds a map based upon the pixel intensity arrays and generates digital form data by executing a baseline handwriting classifier using the map, the pixel intensity arrays, and the field types.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2018Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: FMR LLCInventors: Sunil Madhani, Fabrizio Machado, Christopher A.
