  • Publication number: 20230102179
    Abstract: An automated system and corresponding method is configured to predict a call duration of a customer service interaction between a caller and a customer-service agent of a call center, based at least in part on information provided orally by the caller to the automated system. The automated system transcribes the orally provided information, preprocesses the transcribed data, adds feature enrichment data to supplement the transcribed data, and executes a machine-learning model to predict the caller’s intent. If the predicted caller’s intent does not have an adequate confidence score associated therewith, the system requests additional data from the caller, and supplements the original data with newly provided data, and again determines a predicted call intent. This process may iterate until the confidence score satisfies applicable confidence criteria prior to utilizing two additional machine-learning models to predict a call duration of the interaction between the caller and a customer-service agent.

  • Patent number: 11615876
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and a system where a processor(s) obtains data related to physical activities performed by an individual from a sensor(s) proximate to the individual. The processor(s) cognitively analyzes the data to identify baseline behavioral patterns of the individual, when the individual is engaged in each of the physical activities. The processor(s) obtains data indicating consumption of a substance by the individual at a first time. The processor(s) determines impacts of the consumption on the baseline behavioral patterns of the individual and generates a data structure (a predictive model) that includes expected deviations from the baseline behavioral patterns of the individual, when the individual has consumed the substance.

  • Publication number: 20230090049
    Abstract: To schedule a future interaction between a caller and a call-center, a management computing system associated with the call center is configured to determine an estimated call time for addressing the caller's issues, based at least in part on a predicted call intent as well as feature enrichment data received from one or more memory storage areas. Upon determining a predicted call duration for the call, the management computing entity accesses the caller's calendar, such as through an internet-based communication between the caller's user computing entity and the management computing entity, or via third-party access permissions provided by the caller. The management computing entity identifies one or more candidate timeslots based at least in part on the predicted call duration, and receives user input selecting a candidate timeslot for scheduling the callback.

  • Patent number: 11608074
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for controlling a vehicle. The method monitors one or more characteristics of one or more users within the vehicle, and compares the one or more characteristics of the one or more users with one or more corresponding baseline characteristics of the one or more users. The method further determines, based on the comparison, that a difference between the one or more characteristics and the one or more corresponding baseline characteristics of the one or more users exceeds a threshold value, and performs a controlling action associated with the vehicle, wherein the controlling action may be taking a higher level of autonomous control over the vehicle; varying speed and handling of the vehicle; and overriding the one or more characteristics of the one or more users in order to avoid an accident.

  • Publication number: 20230081608
    Abstract: To provide objective indications of the progression of peripheral neuropathy of patients, a transmitter apparatus is utilized to produce reproducible pulse signals to specified locations on the human body to determine a minimum level of stimulation necessary to elicit a consciously detectable sensation through the generation of a series of pulse signals of varying intensities, and the recordation of the number of pulse signals felt by the patient. Moreover, the nerve velocity of the patient is additionally determined for a patient via the transmitter apparatus and a receiver apparatus detecting body-signals passing along a nerve within the patient and corresponding to the pulse signals applied to the patient. The results of these tests are recorded over time, thereby enabling generation of patient-specific models indicative of the progression of the patient's peripheral neuropathy over time.

  • Patent number: 11593348
    Abstract: Data ownership of a single record data object comprising a plurality of individual data elements may be distributed across a plurality of users, such that each individual user is capable of separately controlling access to those data elements for which the data owner has ownership privileges. These data ownership privileges, and corresponding access rights which may be individually provided by distinct data owners, is managed by a data management computing entity such that a single composite user interface may be generated for a user viewing a particular record data object such that the viewer is provided with viewing access to only those data elements for which the viewer has access. Thus, separate user interfaces may be generated and provided for different viewers accessing the same record data object.
