  • Publication number: 20230334241
    Abstract: Learning and correcting errors in text input fields to an artificial intelligence (AI) system includes receiving, by the AI system from a target system, an input text. The AI system executes a text processing operation on the input text by applying at least one transformer from a library of transformers to the input text to generate transformed text. At least one proposed correction to the input text is output by the AI system based on an analysis of the transformed text. Feedback data, associated with the at least one proposed correction, is then received from a user of the target system to iteratively learn, by the AI system, which of the transformers need be applied on future input text to accurately generate future proposed corrections on the future input text.

  • Publication number: 20230306078
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a computer system for designing a fair machine learning model through user interaction. A computer system receives from a user a request for reviewing one or more biased subgroups in a dataset used in training a machine learning model and presents to the user the one or more biased subgroups and respective bias scores thereof. A computer system preprocesses the dataset to mitigate bias, in response to receiving from the user a request for mitigating the bias associated with the one or more biased subgroups. A computer system retrains the machine learning model, using a new dataset obtained from preprocessing the dataset. A computer system presents to the user respective new bias scores of the one or more biased subgroups in the new dataset. The user reviews the respective new bias scores to determine whether the fair machine learning model is built.

  • Patent number: 11599958
    Abstract: A method incrementally solves a current journey planning request from a user. The solving step performs a current search for at least one journey plan that satisfies the request by accessing a database storing journey planning information derived from results to a plurality of previous requests. The solving step stores, in the database, information discovered during the current search for responding to a subsequent request. The information discovered during the current search for responding to the request includes a reusable portion of a search graph, pairs of a state and a lower bound on a best arrival time and pairs of a state and an exact value for the arrival time. The lower bound is employed to increase an accuracy of a pre-computer heuristic function which guides the search based on state dominance in search spaces in which heuristic values are back propagated and stored in the database.
