  • Patent number: 11461725
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose methods and systems for generating operational alarms for a plurality of clients, the operational alarms being generated by a business performance system, each client being associated with a plurality of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). An aggregate rank for each client based on ranks of each KPI is generated. For each client: the aggregate rank of the client over one or more time periods is monitored. If the aggregate rank deteriorates over the one or more time periods, a severity indicator is determined based on change of value of each KPI and change of rank of each KPI for the client over the one or more time periods. An operational alarm based on value of the severity indicator is determined. The operational alarm is displayed on a user interface, wherein the operational alarm displays one or more KPIs with highest severity values.

  • Patent number: 10754541
    Abstract: An expandable drawing surface is described. In various embodiments, a drawing surface manager is configured to cause a size of a drawing surface to expand dynamically to provide a user with a truly infinite drawing surface such that the user is not limited for space in any direction. To do so, the drawing surface manager creates and displays new pages for the drawing surface as the user scrolls in any direction. The new pages are displayed proximate existing pages such that the user is presented with a continuous drawing surface on which the user can work seamlessly. In one or more embodiments, a memory manager is configured to provide efficient memory techniques such that, at any point of time, only data associated with visible pages of the drawing surface is loaded onto a memory.

  • Patent number: 10741181
    Abstract: Speech recognition is performed on a received utterance to determine a plurality of candidate text representations of the utterance, including a primary text representation and one or more alternative text representations. Natural language processing is performed on the primary text representation to determine a plurality of candidate actionable intents, including a primary actionable intent and one or more alternative actionable intents. A result is determined based on the primary actionable intent. The result is provided to the user. A recognition correction trigger is detected. In response to detecting the recognition correction trigger, a set of alternative intent affordances and a set of alternative text affordances are concurrently displayed.

  • Patent number: 10733375
    Abstract: Systems and processes for operating an intelligent automated assistant are provided. An example process receives natural language input and determines a first and a second parsing result for the natural language input. The first and the second parsing results include respective mappings of one or more properties of a domain corresponding to the natural language input to one or more words of the natural language input. The process determines whether the second parsing result corresponds to a data item in a knowledge base, and in accordance with determining that the second parsing result corresponds to the data item in the knowledge base, the process ranks the second parsing result higher than the first parsing result. Based on the ranking, the process generates a task flow using the second parsing result and executes the task flow to provide an output based on the data item.

  • Patent number: 10404526
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments illustrate methods and systems for generating recommendations for client process execution of one or more client processes corresponding to a plurality of clients of an organization. The method comprises retrieving an event log including event data captured during execution of one or more processes in the organization to service a plurality of clients of a predefined type. The event log is analyzed across the plurality of clients to determine cross-clientele information including a process compliance deviation between an observed and an expected client process execution of the one or more processes. Thereafter, a set of root-causes of the process compliance deviation is determined based on process models of the one or more processes and/or decision rules of the organization. Further, one or more recommendations for the client process execution of the one or more processes of the organization are generated, based on the set of root-causes.
