  • Patent number: 11763811
    Abstract: Typical graphical user interfaces and predefined data fields limit the interaction between a person and a computing system. An oral communication device and a data enablement platform are provided for ingesting oral conversational data from people, and using machine learning to provide intelligence. At the front end, an oral conversational bot, or chatbot, interacts with a user. On the backend, the data enablement platform has a computing architecture that ingests data from various external data sources as well as data from internal applications and databases. These data and algorithms are applied to surface new data, identify trends, provide recommendations, infer new understanding, predict actions and events, and automatically act on this computed information. The chatbot then provides audio data that reflects the information computed by the data enablement platform. The system and the devices, for example, are adaptable to various industries.

  • Patent number: 11061972
    Abstract: The amount and variety of data being generated is becoming too extreme for many computing systems to process, and is even more difficult for information systems to provide relevant data to users. A distributed computing system is provided that includes server machines that form a data enablement platform. The platform includes: a plurality of data collectors that stream data over a message bus to a streaming analytics and machine learning engine; a data lake and a massive indexing repository for respectively storing and indexing data; a behavioral analytics and machine learning module; and multiple application programming interfaces (APIs) to interact with the data lake and the massive indexing repository, and to interact with multiple applications. The multiple applications are command cards, and each command card includes a directive module, a memory module, search bots, and behavior bots that operate at least within the data enablement platform.

  • Publication number: 20200357382
    Abstract: The display of digital media content includes graphical user interfaces and predefined data fields that limit interaction between a person and a computing system. An oral communication device and a data enablement platform are provided for ingesting oral conversational data from people, and using machine learning to provide intelligence. At the front end, an oral conversational bot, or chatbot, interacts with a user. The chatbot is specific to a customized digital magazine, which both evolve over time to a user for a given topic. On the backend, the data enablement platform has a computing architecture that ingests data from various external data sources as well as data from internal applications and databases. These data and algorithms are applied to surface new data, identify trends, provide recommendations, infer new understanding, predict actions and events, and automatically act on this computed information. The chatbot then reads out the content to the user.
