Patent number: 11741405Abstract: Embodiments are provided for ticket-agent matching and agent skillset development. In some embodiments, a system includes a processor that executes computer-executable components stored in memory. The computer-executable components can include a matching component that determines, using a ticket profile and a space of agent profiles, a ticket-agent pair including a ticket identifier of a service request and an agent identifier of a particular agent within a pool of agents. The computer-executable components also can include a rematching component that assigns a second agent identifier to the service request to develop a skillset of a second particular agent within the pool of agents, the second agent identifier being associated with an unsatisfactory skill score for a defined skill to resolve the service request.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2021Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Rohit Avinash Mujumdar, Shubhi Asthana, Pawan Chowdhary, Aly Megahed, Bing Zhang

Patent number: 11619618Abstract: Provided is a system and method for tuning an array of sensors to enable selection of the most suitable sensors for a target application. After extracting features from sensor raw data, the extracted features are ranked with gradient boosting decision trees to assign an importance value to each extracted feature. A threshold value for the entire set of extracted features is calculated and an importance score is calculated for the individual sensors of the array. Individual sensors with an importance score on or above the threshold value are selected for the target application.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2019Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Mohammed Abdi, Aminat Adebiyi, Alberto Mannari, Andrea Fasoli, Ronald Robert Labby, Luisa Bozano, Pawan Chowdhary, Abubeker Abdullahi

Publication number: 20220164744Abstract: A method for predicting service requests volume includes generating a machine learning model predicting a number of service requests in time series data, based upon a plurality of actually received service requests in the time series data. The method recommends service request features for use in predicting the service requests volume. The method receives a determination from an human-in-the-loop indicating whether the generated machine learning model correctly predicts the number of service requests in time series data, based on the plurality of actually received service requests in the time series data and the recommended service request features. The method selectively updates the machine learning model predicting the number of service requests in times series data, based upon the determination from the human-in-the-loop. The method predicts, using the updated machine learning model, a number of service requests in time series data incoming during a future time period.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 20, 2020Publication date: May 26, 2022Inventors: Bing Zhang, Shubhi Asthana, Pawan Chowdhary, Aly Megahed, Rohit Avinash Mujumdar, Taiga Nakamura

Publication number: 20220138598Abstract: A computer-implemented method, according to one approach, is for reducing the computational overhead involved with processing received service requests. The computer-implemented method includes: collecting datasets, each dataset including: a previously submitted service request, and a team that satisfied the respective previously submitted service request. Features are also extracted from the datasets, and a model is trained using the features that are extracted from the datasets. Moreover, a newly submitted service request is received, and features are extracted from the newly submitted service request. A dataset that most closely matches the newly submitted service request is further determined by applying the model to the features extracted from the newly submitted service request.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 3, 2020Publication date: May 5, 2022Inventors: Sunhwan Lee, Pawan Chowdhary

Patent number: 11321634Abstract: Embodiments relate to an intelligent computer platform to utilize machine learning techniques to minimize compliance risk. Features are extracted from one or more data sources across two or more domains and activity data is identified. Features are identified within the activity data which are used to create one or more models. Domain activity impact is measured and a risk probability is calculated. A policy is generated based on the calculated risk probability and one or more compliance activities are orchestrated. One or more encoded actions are executed in compliance with the orchestration.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2019Date of Patent: May 3, 2022Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Sunhwan Lee, Pawan Chowdhary, Guangjie Ren, Raphael I.

Patent number: 11273357Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system, program product, and method for use and an artificial intelligence (AI) platform to identify and analyze physical forces related to sensory input. A sensor operatively coupled to an inertial measurement unit (IMU) is activated. An initial position of the IMU responsive to the sensor activation is captured and movement of the IMU from the initial position is recognized. A comparison is preformed, where the captured initial position is compared to a second position which is correlated with the recognized movement. A score based on the performed comparison is determined and a diagnostic assessment based on the performed comparison and determined score is created. The diagnostic assessment is converted to feedback, where the conversion utilizes real-time communication of an instruction of a second movement position of the IMU. Receipt of the feedback physically conveys a manifestation of the feedback to the apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2018Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Pawan Chowdhary, Kumar R.
