Abstract: Users have to assign labels to a ticket to route to right domain expert for resolving issue(s). In practice, labels are large and organized in form of a tree. Lack in clarity in problem description has resulted in inconsistent and incorrect labeling of data, making it hard for one to learn/interpret. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods that identify relevant queries to obtain user response, for identification of right category and ticket logging there. This is achieved by implementing attention based sequence to sequence (seq2seq) hierarchical classification model to assign the hierarchical categories to tickets, followed by a slot filling model to enable identifying/deciding right set of queries, if the top-k model predictions are not consistent. Further, training data for slot filling model is automatically generated based on attention weight in the hierarchical classification model.

Abstract: Business to Consumer (B2C) systems face a challenge of engaging users since offers are created using static rules generated using clustering on large transactional data generated over a period of time. Moreover, the offer creation and assignment engine is disjoint to the transactional system which led to significant gap between history used to create offers and current activity of users. Systems and methods of the present disclosure provide a meta-model based configurable auto-tunable recommendation model generated by ensembling optimized machine learning and deep learning models to predict a user's likelihood to take an offer and deployed in real time. Furthermore, the offer given to the user is based on a current context derived from the user's recent behavior that makes the offer relevant and increases probability of conversion of the offer to a sale. The system achieves low recommendation latency and scalable high throughput by virtue of the architecture used.

Abstract: Conversational systems are required to be capable of handling more sophisticated interactions than providing factual answers only. Such interactions are handled by resolving abstract anaphoric references in conversational systems which includes antecedent fact references and posterior fact references. The present disclosure resolves abstract anaphoric references in conversational systems using hierarchically stacked neural networks. In the present disclosure, a deep hierarchical maxpool network based model is used to obtain a representation of each utterance received from users and a representation of one or more generated sequences of utterances. The obtained representations are further used to identify contextual dependencies with in the one or more generated sequences which helps in resolving abstract anaphoric references in conversational systems.

Abstract: Estimating Remaining Useful Life (RUL) from multi-sensor time series data is difficult through manual inspection. Current machine learning and data analytics methods, for RUL estimation require large number of failed instances for training, which are rarely available in practice, and these methods cannot use information from currently operational censored instances since their failure time is unknown. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods for estimating RUL using time series data by implementing an LSTM-RNN based ordinal regression technique, wherein during training RUL value of failed instance(s) is encoded into a vector which is given as a target to the model. Unlike a failed instance, the exact RUL for a censored instance is unknown. For using the censored instances, target vectors are generated and the objective function is modified for training wherein the trained LSTM-RNN based ordinal regression is applied on an input test time series for RUL estimation.

Abstract: Traditional systems and methods have implemented hand-crafted feature extraction from varying length time series that results in complexity and requires domain knowledge. Building classification models requires large labeled data and is computationally expensive. Embodiments of the present disclosure implement learning models for classification tasks in multi-dimensional time series by performing feature extraction from entity's parameters via unsupervised encoder and build a non-temporal linear classifier model. A fixed-dimensional feature vector is outputted using a pre-trained unsupervised encoder, which acts as off-the shelf feature extractor. Extracted features are concatenated to learn a non-temporal linear classification model and weight is assigned to each extracted feature during learning which helps to determine relevant parameters for each class. Mapping from parameters to target class is considered while constraining the linear model to use only subset of large number of features.

Abstract: Anomaly detection from time series is one of the key components in automated monitoring of one or more entities. Domain-driven sensor selection for anomaly detection is restricted by knowledge of important sensors to capture only a certain set of anomalies from the entire set of possible anomalies. Hence, existing anomaly detection approaches are not very effective for multi-dimensional time series. Embodiments of the present disclosure depict sparse neural network for anomaly detection in multi-dimensional time series (MDTS) corresponding to a plurality of parameters of entities. A reduced-dimensional time series is obtained from the MDTS via an at least one feedforward layer by using a dimensionality reduction model. The dimensionality reduction model and recurrent neural network (RNN) encoder-decoder model are simultaneously learned to obtain a multi-layered sparse neural network. A plurality of error vectors corresponding to at least one time instance of the MDTS is computed to obtain an anomaly score.

Abstract: Systems and methods for predictive reliability mining are provided that enable predicting of unexpected emerging failures in future without waiting for actual failures to start occurring in significant numbers. Sets of discriminative Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) from connected machines in a population are identified before failure of the associated parts. A temporal conditional dependence model based on the temporal dependence between the failure of the parts from past failure data and the identified sets of discriminative DTCs is generated. Future failures are predicted based on the generated temporal conditional dependence and root cause analysis of the predicted future failures is performed for predictive reliability mining. The probability of failure is computed based on both occurrence and non-occurrence of DTCs. The root cause analysis enables identifying a subset of the population when an early warning is generated and also when an early warning is not generated.

Abstract: In automated assistant systems, a deep-learning model in form of a long short-term memory (LSTM) classifier is used for mapping questions to classes, with each class having a manually curated answer. A team of experts manually create the training data used to train this classifier. Relying on human curation often results in such linguistic training biases creeping into training data, since every individual has a specific style of writing natural language and uses some words in specific context only. Deep models end up learning these biases, instead of the core concept words of the target classes. In order to correct these biases, meaningful sentences are automatically generated using a generative model, and then used for training a classification model. For example, a variational autoencoder (VAE) is used as the generative model for generating novel sentences and a language model (LM) is utilized for selecting sentences based on likelihood.
