  • Patent number: 11823666
    Abstract: Automatic measurement of semantic textual similarity of conversations, by: receiving two conversation texts, each comprising a sequence of utterances; encoding each of the sequences of utterances into a corresponding sequence of semantic representations; computing a minimal edit distance between the sequences of semantic representations; and, based on the computation of the minimal edit distance, performing at least one of: quantifying a semantic similarity between the two conversation texts, and outputting an alignment of the two sequences of utterances with each other.

  • Publication number: 20230281396
    Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product for automated agent intent detection enhancement are provided. A first message from a first user is received. The first message is generated during a first conversation between the first user and a first automated agent. A computer produces a second message that includes a same request as the first message but a different language modality than the first message. The second message and the first message are combined to form a combined message. The combined message is input into the first automated agent such that the first automated agent produces an intent classification for the first message.

  • Publication number: 20230108637
    Abstract: An example system includes a processor to receive a bot design and escalation logs associated with a chat bot configured based on the bot design. The processor can compute a similarity score between each of a number of bot response nodes in the bot design and the escalation logs. The processor can generate a sorted list of the bot response nodes in the bot design based on the similarity scores.

  • Patent number: 11526667
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present systems and methods may provide techniques for augmenting textual data that may be used for textual classification tasks. Embodiments of such techniques may provide the capability to synthesize labeled data to improve text classification tasks. Embodiments may be specifically useful when only a small amount of data is available, and provide improved performance in such cases. For example, in an embodiment, a method implemented in a computer system may comprise a processor, memory accessible by the processor, and computer program instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor, and the method may comprise fine-tuning a language model using a training dataset, synthesizing a plurality of samples using the fine-tuned language model, filtering the plurality of synthesized samples, and generating an augmented training dataset comprising the training dataset and the filtered plurality of synthesized sentences.

  • Publication number: 20190266215
    Abstract: A method comprising using at least one hardware processor for receiving sensory data from at least one physical or virtual sensor. The hardware processor(s) are used for computing a plurality of decision options for configuration of the at least one physical or virtual sensor. The hardware processor(s) are used for computing a plurality of utility functions, and for each utility function: (a) computing a utility value for each decision option, and (b) identifying a first subset of decision options that substantially maximize the computed utility values. The hardware processor(s) are used for selecting at least one cross-function decision option from of the first subsets, wherein the at least one cross-function decision option is included in a substantially maximum number of the first subsets. The hardware processor(s) are used for applying at least one of the at least one cross-function decision options, to at least one physical or virtual sensor.
