Abstract: Generally discussed herein are devices, systems, and methods for scheduling tasks to be completed by resources. A method can include identifying features of the task, the features including a time-dependent feature and a time-independent feature, the time-dependent feature indicating a time the task is more likely to be successfully completed by the resource, converting the features to feature values based on a predefined mapping of features to feature values in a first memory device, determining, by a gradient boost tree model and based on a first current time and the feature values, a likelihood the resource will successfully complete the task, and scheduling the task to be performed by the resource based on the determined likelihood.

Abstract: A system that analyses content of electronic communications may automatically extract requests or commitments from the electronic communications. In one example process, a processing component may analyze the content to determine one or more meanings of the content; query content of one or more data sources that is related to the electronic communications; and based, at least in part, on (i) the one or more meanings of the content and (ii) the content of the one or more data sources, automatically identify and extract a request or commitment from the content. Multiple actions may follow from initial recognition and extraction, including confirmation and refinement of the description of the request or commitment, and actions that assist one or more of the senders, recipients, or others to track and address the request or commitment, including the creation of additional messages, reminders, appointments, or to-do lists.

Abstract: A deep learning network is trained to automatically analyze enterprise data. Raw data from one or more global data sources is received, and a specific training dataset that includes data exemplary of the enterprise data is also received. The raw data from the global data sources is used to pre-train the deep learning network to predict the results of a specific enterprise outcome scenario. The specific training dataset is then used to further train the deep learning network to predict the results of a specific enterprise outcome scenario. Alternately, the raw data from the global data sources may be automatically mined to identify semantic relationships there-within, and the identified semantic relationships may be used to pre-train the deep learning network to predict the results of a specific enterprise outcome scenario.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for evaluating the accuracy of predictive systems and quantifiable measures of incremental value. One method provides a scientific solution to test and evaluate predictive systems in a transparent, rigorous, and verifiable way to allow decision-makers to better decide whether to adopt a new predictive system. In one example, objects to be evaluated are assigned to a control group or an experiment group. The testing provides an equal or better distribution of scores in the control group for the scores obtained with the first predictor, but the method aims at maximizing the scores of objects obtained with the second predictor in the experiment group. Since the first scores are evenly distributed in both groups, any result improvements may be attributed to the better accuracy of the second predictor when the results of the experiment group are better than the results of the control group.

Abstract: A method to predict churn includes obtaining static features representative of a customer of a service, obtaining time series features representative of the customers interaction with the service, using a deep neural network to process the static features, using a recurrent neural network to process the time series features; and combining outputs from the deep neural network and the recurrent neural network to predict likelihood of customer churn.

Abstract: A system and method which allow for connecting users with people of interest based on preferences and current location. The system allows users to connect when on board of the same transportation means such as an airplane. A wireless network is provided which is connected to a server including profile information of different users. The server makes the profile of a given user available for viewing by others depending on a number of factors including the current preferences of the given user (whether they allow other users to contact them or not at the given moment) and/or depending on the presence of a match between the profiles and preferences of the users. Using the current system, users may chat in real time using mobile phones over the wireless network. A method is also described which allow for managing and securing the access of one user to another based on each user's current location.
