  • Patent number: 11410080
    Abstract: Identification of content classes deemed important by users is received. Classifiers are trained on user communication text to recognize content matching content classes. A composite classifier is applied to text of communication among users of a second set of users, including tagging, by the composite classifier, content in text of communication among the users of the second set. The tagging is responsive to the classifiers recognizing their respective content classes in text of communication among the users of the second set.

  • Patent number: 11288299
    Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for providing enhanced action fulfillment using classification valency. At least a first message from a user in a channel is analyzed, the first message containing first data of a first data type, and a classification of the first message is inferred based on the first data's content. At least a second message from the user in the channel is analyzed, the second message containing second data of a second data type different from the first data type, and a classification model of the second message is derived based on the second data's content. The classification of the first message and the classification model of the second message are used to determine whether an additional inference is available based on the classification valency. The additional inference is incorporated to determine the enhanced action fulfillment, and the enhanced action is presented to the user for fulfillment.

  • Publication number: 20220092544
    Abstract: In an approach for collaboration space identification using sensory alignment, a processor collects scheduling information and expected device usage from historical log files for a forthcoming time period for a business. A processor determines historical and expected energy consumption from the scheduling information and expected device usage for the forthcoming time period. A processor determines an expected power usage based on the historical and expected energy consumption for the forthcoming time period. A processor monitors net incoming electricity to compare against the expected power usage for the forthcoming time period. A processor determines a level of significance between each location of the business and each application expected to be used in the forthcoming time period. A processor builds a model based on each level of significance determined that determines a probability of whether a respective location is optimal for collaboration.

  • Patent number: 11194969
    Abstract: Various embodiments for managing dialog comments by a processor are provided. Each communication of a dialog communicated by one or more users using one of a plurality of applications may be monitored, tracked, and/or analyzed using a machine learning operation and/or a natural language processing operation. A topic trajectory of the dialog may be identified between one or more users using one of a plurality of applications. A selected comment submitted by the one or more users may be automatically transformed according to one or more corrective actions upon the selected communication deviating from the topic trajectory.

  • Patent number: 11176472
    Abstract: A thread delta prediction and cognitive conversation opportunity generation. A prediction model may be generated based on chat space conversation data, and predicts a chat thread delta associated with a current chat conversation data. A data package may be created based on the chat thread delta. Based on the data package, a conversation opportunity may be determined for a given topic for given user in the chat space, to conduct during a time period of the chat thread delta in real-time.

  • Patent number: 10992486
    Abstract: Synchronizing collaboration times for members of a team includes extracting emotive content and topical indicia from conversation data generated from multiple electronically captured conversations involving the team members. A model for generating time-based collaboration profiles for each member with respect to a specific topic can be constructed based on the emotive content and topical indicia. A synchronized collaboration time for the members of the team can be determined based on comparisons of each team member's respective collaboration profile.
