Abstract: In an example embodiment, a request is received, via a graphical user interface, to add a new object to a directory of objects, the new object having a first category in a hierarchical taxonomy of categories and objects. Then one or more questions previously assigned to the first category and/or one or more existing objects within the first category are retrieved. Each of the retrieved one or more questions and information about the new object are then fed into a first machine learned model trained to output a probability that a question is applicable to an object. One or more questions are generated for the new object based on the probability for each of the retrieved one or more questions. At least one of the one or more generated questions is then assigned to the new object.

Abstract: A method may include receiving, at a recommendation engine, a first indication to create a first sourcing event that includes a first object and a second object. The recommendation engine may respond to the first indication by updating a learning model to increment a first frequency of the first object being included in a sourcing event, a second frequency of the second object being included in a sourcing event, and/or a third frequency of the first object and the second object being included simultaneously in a sourcing event. The recommendation engine may receive a second indication to create a second sourcing event. In response to the second indication, the recommendation engine may apply the learning model to generate a recommendation to add, to the second sourcing event, the first object instead of the second object. Related systems and articles of manufacture are also provided.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for creating line item information from tabular data. One example method includes receiving event data values at a system. Column headers of columns in the event data values are identified. At least one column header is not included in standard line item terms used by the system. Column values of the columns in the event data values are identified. The identified column headers and the identified column values are processed using one or more models to map each column to a standard line item term used by the system. The processing includes using context determination and content recognition to identify standard line item terms. An event is created in the system, including the creation of line items from the identified column value. Each line item includes standard line item terms mapped to the columns.

Abstract: Data is received that specifies a term generated by user input in a graphical user interface. Thereafter, the term is looked up in a dictionary in which there are multiple classes for terms. The term can be classified based on a first class having a top ranked effective count for the term within the dictionary when a ratio of the first class relative to a second class having a second ranked effective count for the term in the dictionary is above a pre-defined threshold. In addition, the term is classified using a machine learning model when the ratio of the first class relative to the second class is below the pre-defined threshold. Data can be provided which characterizes the classifying. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

The program also determines a second distance value based on the sorted values of the second attribute of the plurality of data objects. The program further defines a plurality of clusters based on the sorted values of the first attribute of the plurality of data objects, the first distance value, the sorted values of the second attribute of the plurality of data objects, and the second distance value.

Abstract: In an example embodiment, a model generation component may additionally assign various cloud resources to a machine learned model so that the training or retraining of the model can be performed using these resource. The containers may be weighted to handle model generation work of different weight. Having one single configuration for a container responsible for generating all models leads to overuse of hardware resources because machine learning algorithms are very resource intensive, and thus dynamically selecting the weight improves hardware utilization.

Abstract: In an example embodiment an applications (apps) intelligence framework is utilized to quickly operationalize machine learned models (of different use cases, products, or applications) and take them to production through a set of predetermined pipelines. The app server may include a model configuration component to allow an entity to configure a model for an entity's specific use case. This configuration is then passed to a model generation component in the machine learning component, which acts to generate the specific model for the entity's use case using the configuration. An intelligent scheduling component may then be used to schedule retraining of the specific model at particular intervals. Notably, the intelligent scheduling component is itself a machine learned model (in one example embodiment a neural network) that is trained to dynamically output a training interval for a particular model based on various features.

Abstract: Various examples are directed to determining an impact of a subunit on the value of a unit. A web-based analytics system receives unit value data via a user interface page provided to a supplier computing device by a web application, the unit value data including relationship data describing a relationship between a plurality of subunit values and a unit value. Based on relationship data, the system increases a value for a first subunit while holding values for the other subunits constant until the value of the unit increases to a unit value threshold and increases a value for a second subunit while holding values for the other subunits constant until the value of the unit increases to a unit value threshold. The system compares an increase in the value of the first subunit to increase the value of the unit to the unit value threshold with an increase in the value of the second subunit to increase the value of the unit to the unit value threshold.
